How much weight did you loose before people started noticing?



Recommended Posts

I'm almost 7 months out and 70 lbs down. People are starting to notice. Not that it matters to me. But it has been a positive experience. At what point did people notice your weight loss?

I'm almost 6 months out and almost 60 lbs down... I think ppl that don't see me often notice immediately. Those that see me daily/weekly started asking at about 30/40 lbs down?

Good question!

I'm only 5 weeks out. My husband said he sees (and feels ;)) the difference already. I've lost 35 lbs since beginning prep op diet and 15 since surgery.

50 lbs. Someone at work just recently stopped me and asked if I had lost weight. It was weird, especially since I don't really "see it yet." I think the bigger you are the more it takes to see a difference.

My husband and friends that know about my surgery say they see a change, but I think they are mainly just trying to be encouraging. I have only barely gone down one clothing size.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
