Hi everyone!

I am just curious about something, I am 5 weeks out as of today and have lost 40 lbs (10 from pre-op diet) why I am super super excited for this amount, I have noticed that my weight loss has slowed down quite a bit since the first week. The first week post op I lost 14 lbs... after that I am ranging between 4-5 lbs a week. Which is still AMAZING! More than I was losing before surgery, when I was trying really hard. Just was curious how everyone elses went. Was it similar to mine?

Your doing good! I'm 6 weeks out tomorrow and have lost 27 lbs with my pre-op diet. I'm super excited with that. If I was 40 lbs less I'd be stoked!!

Sound great to me!

I'm 6 weeks out and have only lost 30lbs since surgery and 8lb before giving me a total of 38lb yes I am happy but I thought it would be more...I too have started to slow down and I think I'm already in my second stall

Don't focus on the scale. Focus on you getting healthy. That's what a nurse I had in the hospital that had the surgery a yr before told me. She looked amazing too.

I am 7 weeks, surgery was 8/23 . I was at 311 for surgery and now I'm at 280, so I am losing at a slower pace also. I feel your frustration because I thought I would have lost more too. I do feel better though, so that's a plus.

My surgery was 9/27, so 17 days post-op. Down 23 lbs so far

You are all doing amazing. I am 6 months post op and have lost about 60 pounds in total and on average a 10 pound loss per month. Im totally pumped even though I would like to lose another 25 or so to get to my perfect height for weight/BMI. So I am was on the lighter side as a starter compared to some of the people on this forum, so don't expect the massive loss that those folk will experience.

Trust me you are doing absolutely amazing!!

I'm 6 weeks, surgery was 8/29. I was 227 pre opt liquid diet , day if surgery I was 218. Today 10/15 I'm 194, I was hoping to have lost more weight by now. I don't do much exercise, I hate to exercise! That might be part if my problem...
