How much weight did you loose in the first 4 weeks?

I know everyone is different and I know everyone looses weight at different speeds but how much weight on average did you loose each week in the first 4 weeks? I am eating 3 small meals a day and having one snack but my weight loss seems really slow, I lost more in the 2 weeks before my operation than I have since the op.

Surgery 2/25 down 28 lbs

My surgery was 3/4. I am loosing a pound per day. I am not eating or drinking enough for sure. I'm trying...

Let's see I weighed in at 296 the day of my surgery 12/19/13. Today I weigh 248.5. I'm losing about 2.5/3.5 lbs per week.

My high weight was 279 lb. Preop weight was 265 lb.

Surgery was 2/7. I was 259 day of surgery. At 1 month (3/7), I was 243 - so I lost 15 lbs. Today, I'm 235.

26.8 lbs. - 4 weeks tomorrow

At 4 weeks about 25, today is my 8 week Anniv. And I'm only down 39 total since surgery. Almost 40 in 8 weeks is great compared to a "normal" diet, but a bit disappointed because I see some amazing numbers others drop the first 1,2 and 3rd months. I go see my Dr. For a follow up on Friday. Wonder what he will say??
