How much did you lose the first 3-4 months? I want to be out of the 200+ Club by summer.

Hi I am curious what the average amount of weight loss is the first 3-4 months. Please include your starting weight as I think it is a major factor in how quickly you lose the excess weight. Thanks so much!!!

I curious about others rate of loss too but NOT to compare myself to. My surgeon asked me my goal weight and I said I don't one. So no comparisons needed. It doesn't mean I can't be interest in the general rate most lose in the first few months like the OP. Were all adults and not everyone need a lecture based off what others posters wrote in the past.

Me too!

I never set one they asked me the same thing I said ummm smaller healthy? don;t actually have a goal do i need one? they said no its better ot not have a goal as it could be somethign i never reach and i am being far more realistic this way as i will be happy with the results regardless of what the final one is.

I only added the one to my ticker because well it needs one and it’s the average weight for a woman my height lol

Looking over my book I kept the first year the ONLY time I put my weight down was on the 23rd of august 2012 I personally measured my body parts inch loss monthly than keeping track of my weight.
so lets see by 2 months and 8 days out I had lost 106lbs from day of op in total pre and post op 119lbs.

I don’t have any other stats from any other months to tell you more.
I don’t calorie count never have so no help there either.

Sleeved October 14th. Starting weight 238.5 current weight 172.8. Down 66 pounds. Went from a size 18 jeans to currently wearing size 8. Hang on, you're in for quite the ride and you will be so amazed!

Woo Hooo!!!! I can't wait!!!! That is remarkable btw. Thank you for sharing your success.

Started @ 287 (5'10"). Sleeved 10/21. Lost 16 pre-op and weighed 221 this morning. I feel I've been a slow looser, but am not complaining. I feel I need to change up what I'm eating. I've been eating the same proteins (chix, eggs, cheese, yogurt) and find the more I mix it up the better I do.
