17 weeks post op

Hey everyone! I'm 17 weeks post op and down 60 lbs. I was just wondering if this weight loss was a little slow considering that I have a friend who has lost about 100lbs in the same time frame. Regardless I am so so so happy with my sleeve and the decision I made to change my life. Please if anyone has tips or tricks let me know! Thank you ????

Congratulations! You look amazing. Still pre-op so I love hearing and "seeing" other's success stories. Thanks for sharing and best wishes to you.

Just follow your program and you will continue to do great!

I'm ten weeks out and have only lost 17 pounds so I'm thinking your doing well. The faster you lose weight the more loose skin you'll have.

A loss is still a loss after all! Keep up the good work! and yes faster you lose the more loose skin! thank you

You look like you've lost a hundred pounds. Fantastic progress! I would love to lose 60lbs in 4 months but my weight loss has been a little slower so it will probably take me a bit longer.

OMGoodness! what a great pic!

You r doing great!!!! I'm 16 weeks post op.I used to compare myself to others in the beginning, but we are all different and we will eventually get to our goal. Keep up the great work! :)

It also depends on how much fat u have to lose. So I may lose more than u based on those stats alone. People progress at different rates. I wouldn't worry about the numbers so much as the way I look and feel. And u look amazing! Keep it up!

That's just amazing! Congratulations!
