6 months post op, how lost?



Recommended Posts

Hey all. I just passed my 6 months post op anniversary. Was just curious how much weight folks lost after first 6 months. I am including the pre-surgery diet weight loss too. I am down 95 lbs as of yesterday. 5 more lbs to hit 100 and 14 lbs to see one-der-land. Started at 308 down to 213. Naturally I am sure some lost more some lost less but we all need to stick to the plan will all be successful.

I am 7 months post op and have lost 79lbs from the start of my journey. I was 240lb and now 161lbs. I am have hit my goal and noticed that I have made a real lifestyle choice. Just did a Tummy Tuck and breast lift 3 weeks ago. Feeling great and so glad that I started this journey.

Wow, good to hear from you and you sound so positive after all your complications! I really feared for your life for a while. You have done well! I am three and a half months out and just hit wonderland yesterday. That seems like a milestone.

I think losinghope15 could use some of your wisdom from all of your post-op experiences.

That's great!! I was wondering how you have been doing since you had all those issues. There is another woman who's daughter has been going through a rough time similar to yours.

I was sleeved at the end of October and at my 6 month check up I was down 85 pounds and now a stall. I have hit onderland but still gave more to loose. It does seem like at the six month mark the food went down a Little easier and was able to eat a little more than in the beginning. Still get full fast. Do gave some hunger when I don't have my Protein Shakes.< /p>

oh, oh, ohhhh

you know what "they" say about curiosity ;)

end of my story first - answer is - i don't know exactly how much weight i lost at 6 months :wacko:

i have one gigantic regret!!! :angry:

i never kept a blog/records :o

no measurements

didn't write down my weights

never took pictures throughout my journey

buttttt. i'm still "cute as a button" :lol:

"they" say that loosing 10 lbs a month is good/average

my weight loss starts with my DOS

12/15/11

almost to the day of my one year surgiversary

i lwas down105 lbs,

GOAL

maintaining 2.5+ years later

weigh daily (works for me)

do try and stay on top of my #, but i still do fluctuate :(

our weight loss "journey" really starts the 1rst day of maintenance

want to be 5 lb BELOW goal for a little "wiggle" room

i know i will achieve that

EVENTUALLY (sooner than later ;) )

glad you put your @@nprcowboy in your "title"

that way i didn't miss reading your post :)

as many others i went through your bad/hard times with you ;)

but i didn't hurt and suffer physically

glad you are healthy and doing well :)

who deserves it more?? :)

keep up the good job :)

stay well

take care

I just want to say great job to all of you I just had my surgery this week Tuesday. I have lost 15 pounds so far including the pre op diet. I hope I can lose as much as all of you. I'm so looking forward to this journey. I have been in pain all week from my surgery. Today is the first day I'm starting to feel better. Your post are so inspirational.

Let me see if I can search for losing hope15. I haven't done that before and see if I can offer some insight, comfort.

      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!!

      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! 😞
