HOW MUCH HAVE YOU ALL LOST IN THE FIRST MONTH



Recommended Posts

I will be one month this Friday. I lost 22 pounds post op. I don't know about any stalls. I weigh myself at my post op appointments. I enjoy the fact that I feel good and I feel my body changing. My next appointment is in a month and plan to work this sleeve n and plan until then.

Well, the good thing is.. keep losing this much a month and you will be down 100 pounds in 4 months! 25-30 pounds is amazing, and think how much you would have lost without? 2 pounds a week, if you were lucky!

17 down since surgery and most of that was the first week, was stalled for 3 weeks and the scale is only inching down 1 pound here .5 pounds there I must say I'm very disappointed. I'm 6 weeks today and just thought I'd see better numbers. I have an appt this Thursday with my surgeon and NUT and I can't wait so far my NUT said to cut down on my cardio and I should see the scale move ???? really....so that's where I'm at!!!

@ reginasjourney how many calories do you consume a day. How much carbs Protein and fat do you get in. Are you exercising and are you eat regular foods or still on soft. I'm just curious because your doing amazing and mine is coming off soooo slow

@4mnurse I am getting around 800 to 1000 calories but it's on the lower side. I walk and do Water aerobics 3 times a week. When I do that I up my calories because I am biting what I eat. I stalled for about 10 days and then I up the Protein and it started to come off again. Hopes this helps.

I am 2 weeks out and I have lost about 7 pounds. I am not expecting to lose weight quickly. I am 4'11", started with a low BMI, and I have hypothyroidism. If I can lose about 8 pounds a month, I will be a happy camper.

@ reginasjourney I too eat 800-1000 calories a day doing 40 minutes of cardio 5 days a week and I consume 80-100g of Protein a day but still the weight is coming off too slow for me. I'm so frustrated.....

I lost 10.4 pounds during the first month post-op .

I was happy with that. :)

I'm pretty happy with everything about WLS thus far.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
