What's everyone's weightless so far?

Haven't had my surgery yet, and i know everyone differs but i can't help to ask.. what's everyone's weight loss so far?

What's your starting weight, and how much did you lose, how long did it take and what's your current weight??

I should be getting my surgery in October and was wondering how much weight I'd lose by Christmas time... so if anyone could tell me how much weight they lost in the first couple months that would be great too :)

* the topic should say weight loss.. smh stupid autocorrect*

That's Awesome! !! Your doing so good!

So far I have lost 33 lbs since my consultation on 31 August 2016. I am almost 3 weeks post surgery.

I had Gastric Loop Bypass 14th September 2016.

Highest weight: 315lbs

Pre op diet weight (2 week shake diet): 291lbs

Surgery weight: 276lbs

Current weight: 246lbs

I am so so pleased with myself I may not be losing weight quickly or slowly like others but as long as I stick to my dietary requirements I should be fine I'm going at my own pace.

While I am so happy for everyone, this is totally depressing for me. I had surgery on 8/23 at 311, almost 8 weeks out and am at 280 now, that's a total weight loss of only 31 pounds. What am I doing wrong!!!! Any advice?

You sound like me!! 5 months after surgery I was only down about 25 pounds but then it kind of just fell off of me. I am 2 and a half years out and have lost 120 pounds! Don't worry, it will come off unless your are sucking back calories in milkshakes, ice cream etc!

Feeling and seeing yourself smaller is a BIG one!! I still see my highest weight at times. It took me forever to stop going to the Plus Sized racks. It actually took my daughter telling me over and over that I didn't need those sizes anymore. I still have what I call my "FAT DAYS"!! It is very hard for our minds to catch up with our bodies. Our minds definitely did not have the WLS!!! I'm 3 years out and I have maintained my 124# loss for 2 and 1/2 years, I still haven't caught up yet.

We are having similar results! My highest weight was 297, My RNY was 9/28/16 and I weighed 279.9, and now I am 254.2. I stall for a day or two and then lose a couple of pounds. Looking forward to continuing to drop by just sticking with the program!
