I weighed myself just now before I head off to bed out of curiosity and I've lost more weight-- I'm down to 260 now. Now thats great and everything, but it seems to me like I am loosing weight faster than I should. Since the surgery on March 14th I've been losing at about one pound a day. And it doesn't seem to be slowing down. I'm not eating very much. Right now I am in the mushies stage. I have been for nearly a week. And there is plenty for me to eat, but I'm just not that hungry. Yesterday, for example, I wasn't hungry at all, but I drank a low carb slimfast and then some cristal lite. Today I had a smoothie for breakfast and it filled me up all day. I meant to eat today, but I just didn't get hungry after that. I have less restriction now then I did after the surgery, so I know it isn't some sort of problem with that and things are staying down fine. Just lack of apetite (which is really wonderful). Loosing weight this fast though just makes me nervous. Any input?

Enjoy your honeymoon period because once your appetite returns, and before your first fill, it will slow down and possibly stop altogether. So long as you don't feel ill and still have energy enough to function on a daily basis there's no need to worry.

Yeah, it will slow down and even stop soon enough.

When you lose weight that fast, its not all fat, but you cant help it at this stage of the game. It wont hurt you and it does even out over time and I didnt find I turned into a muscle-less blob or anything, lol. I still had plenty of lean body tissue AND fat left and I've got a healthy ratio of the two now. So just enjoy it.

I agree, just enjoy it. When you hit the 1 to 2 lb per phase it can get kindof boring. Be sure to keep your liquids up too to keep yourself hydrated. Not everyone on this forum is lucky enough to experience a fast start. I did and it bummed me out when I slowed down. Now i'm a steady loser and people are starting to notice.

Don't forget to start adding in replacement activities for your NEW LIFE!

Keep up the good work!

Same from me I lost tons during the honeymoon period and I had to work hard at not gaining some of it back be thankful

Enjoy it while it lasts. I was the exact same way, losing about 100 lbs, maybe a little more, in the first six months, then *screeeechhhhh*ing halt. I too was concerned, and even requested follow-ups with my dietician. Everyone told me the same thing - get your protein and calcium, and enjoy it while it lasts because it's going to hit the brakes hard one of these days.

I say ride it out... just make sure to listen to your body and make sure to eat something if you get the shakes or anything.

i too am loosing fast well its good to know that someone else is in my same situation good .......
