Can someone please tell me what is the weight loss after 7-15 days of placing the band (post surgery)

Mine has been 6.5 kgs in seven days and counting...

All over the map. Many people temporarily gain which is normal. If you stick to the eating plan from your team it will come off.

Anywhere from people who gain weight to people who lose 25 lbs. It depends so much on how heavy you are before surgery and how much of it is stored in your adipose as fluids. Most of the weight lost the first 30 days is just Water. Maybe 5-10 lbs of fat but mostly Water.< /p>

I lost somewhere near 16 lbs within my first few days, mainly because of the liquid diet. It will level out once you are eating regular food again. I now lose about 2 lbs a week.

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

      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! 😞
