Hey all! I'm starting my journey next Thursday. I am having my lapband removed after complications. I'm 12 lbs more than I was before I got the lapband. So awful. I was pregnant for most of last year though so that doesn't help. Anyway, just curious how much everyone lost their first month if they remember. Also, did you stay on shakes the whole month or what was your plan like? Just looking for some thinspiration! Thanks!

21 pounds forst 2 weeks ,total for one month 25

21 pounds.

I lost 38 pounds my first month. Everyone is different so you could lose more or less. Good luck on your journey.

I am not really sure. 12-15 pounds I think. it is going to vary depending on how much weight you have to loose overall.

my plan was Clear liquids in the hospital. full liquids for two weeks, soft foods week 3 and 4 and then regular foods after 4 weeks.

I am now 4 months out and with two more pounds will be down 40% of my excess weight. not too shabby!

Today is my one month... I have lost 15 pounds. I know it is not as well as others but I did lose 32 pounds on the pre-op diet.

I also have the body analysis scale which according to those I as of 6/16... I have lost 18 pounds of fat, 3 pounds of muscle. I gave gained Water.

diet - 1 week liquid

3 weeks on soft foods like eggs, cottage cheese, sliced turkey & cheese, cream cheese, Beans, grilled fish & can tuna. There were the Protein shakes

First month I lost 25 lbs. I lost 30 lbs in the 4 weeks pre op liver reduction diet. Down a total of 55 lbs which is almost half of my 113 lb loss goal.
