How much have you lost in Month 1?...I just need to get a general indication

I know it depends significantly on starting weight, age, height, condition of recovery... and so much more!

But I would like to get a general idea of the average of where I fit in.

Thank you

Fyi: I get way too many negative comments on this forum...if your answer is not helpful please keep it to yourself.

@@Jolene-journey you are literally 1 day less than me! I had mine on the 29th :D so I am 25 days out!

Awesome, How have you been feeling?

I have been struggling a bit myself.

45 days since Feb 10th surgery, down 40 lbs, eating an average of 880 to 950 calories a day

and walking or biking an average of 30 minutes a day. The weird part is that those aren't guesses,

those are pretty much on the money, I've been keeping track of everything, something I never would have done

before.

I am relatively fine...I have heard a lot of stories and in comparison I am pretty good :D

My main concern is Water intake...it is difficult getting in enough water...which is horrible when I began moving bec I always feel like drinking a gallon of water :D but can only sip a little bit! What about u

It's weird, since the first days post-op I could drink a hundred ounces if I felt like it

Sorry about the negative comments you are receiving.

Unsure why that happens.

Anyway, I couldn't remember the weights my first month so I went and checked the weigh in history.....looks like I was 422 on day of surgery and 387 a month out.

First couple months were my best losing months for sure. Rate of loss slowed down afterwards.

My water intake lately has not been so hot, I hope to get back on track I no how important water is! Sometimes it hurts when it settles in my tummy, I think its possible I drink to big of a drink instead of sip... ;)

Thanks everyone for your feedback! Today is my monthaversary ... I cannot believe I made it to this day. I am officially 1 month out! and almost out of the 300s!!

Wish you all an amazing journey :)

I lost 20 pounds each the first two months, then 15 the third, I am now more than for months out. I lost 5 pounds in month 4. Between months three and four I started eating regular food. I think that explains my drastic slow down. In the first two weeks of month 5, I have already lost about 3 pounds so I think my combination of working out religiously and eating carefully has helped already.

Sounds like you are doing well!
