How much did you lose your first month?

I had my post op yesterday 12 days out and 23 lbs down!!!

I just had surgery May 1 so almost two months and feeling good but I am afraid I'm over eating because I don't have any of the fullness pains. I have lost 36 pound so far plus 14 pound before surgery. Like I can eat a whole yougert for lunch and 4oz of chicken or salmon for dinner. Others I know still can not eat this much and feel sick after eating.

I'm I stretching my stomach??

I weighed 231 at the time of my surgery and I'm 213 5 weeks out now so I've lost a total of 18lbs since surgery. I had lost 19 on my post op diet so total loss is 37lbs.

you are still losing well!!

It has been about a month since I started my pre-op diet and 2.5 weeks since surgery. Since the beginning (meaning pre op diet), I have lost 46lbs!

OK! I just have to say it! I am jealous. I know all the right things, we all lose at our own rate, it is not a race, you cant't eat 600 calories a day and not lose, etc. Yada, yada, yada! I went from 202 to 193 on my 2 week pre-diet and have gone from 193 to 185 post sleeve and have lost nothing for a week. If this were just another diet I would probably say F it and invite hubby out to dinner tonight. I chose to create a permanent tool so that this irrational thinking would have to be faced head on. I am committed to my personal health and progress so will continue on and find my sense of humor because I am going to get there!

@sustar tour privacy on that week 3 post op stall that everyone talks about

Hang in there girl! It will come!!! Just keep it up and the pay off will be worth it. We are all right here with you!

I officially hit 30 lbs in 30 days post op!! I hope the progress continues this well!!!

Glad to hear wonderful amounts of loss and also about the 3 week post surgery stall. I hadn't heard that before but I am in my 3rd post surgery week and this morning I weighted .6 more than yesterday! It had been so much fun losing every day but I knew that would pause for awhile. I lost 32 lbs presurgery and another 14 post surgery (18 days ago) so a total of 46. I'm looking forward to the 50 lb loss mark! No July 4th bbq this year.. but i will be up to a tablespoon of food 6x a day by July 4th. Looking forward to that scrambled egg! So grateful to everyone on here. It helps so much to compare notes and learn things like I'm not the only one having a 3rd week stall.

Just about 35, but I have a few days left until the month is out.

My surgery was on June 10th and I've lost 18lbs and I've stalled

big time! Have my 6 weeks appt at the end of July and I'm afraid to go to doc if I don't loose more ????

You have lost 18 lbs in 20 days. That is awesome -- and a rate that can not continue so of course you slowed down. Someone mentioned a 3rd week slump. I'm in it now and while it is frustrating it helps to know that others have experienced it and that it will pass. I bet your doctor will tell you that you are doing great. My surgery was also on June 10th and I've lost 14 lbs since then (32 presurgery, for a total of 46. I would love to be down 50, I know I will get there in a week or two. Patience! This is a long process and it won't happen overnight so hang in there.

Got the sleeve 10 days ago and I'm down 19lbs...
