Hi, I was sleeved on 10-6-16 and was wondering what everybody's weight loss rate was. When was the peak of your weight loss? During what months did you lose the most?

Here are my stats:

5'8

Hw 306

Sw 291

Cw 265

Goal 180ish

I feel like I'm a slow loser but I'm ok with that. I just want to know if there were certain times people lost more. (Example-5-6 months out)

I have my breakdown of loss by month:

June -7

July -16

August -15

September -8

October -7

November -9

I've seen others on this board who have lost at the same rate as I have or even faster express disappointment in their loss. But personally I'm thrilled and my rate of loss has exceeded my expectations so far.

Thank you for the break down. I really just wanted to know what to expect. I am perfectly fine with a slow process as long as it keeps coming off.

I think a lot of times we have unrealistic expectations for weight loss. Yes, we had this procedure done but that doesn't change the biological factors involved in weight loss.

Losing 2 lbs a week is considered very fast weight loss, yet there are folks in the WOS community who call themselves "slow losers" if they aren't shedding 3-4 lbs a week.

I've seen posts where people are disgusted and discouraged when they "only" lost 20lbs on a 14 day preop.

We're all anxious to be our new (or old), slimmer selves, but don't discount the process. It's not liposuction. We're learning to make new choices around food, forming what will (hopefully) be our habits for the rest of our lives. Just losing all the weight isn't the challenge with dieting or WLS - long term success is.

I've had a very steady weight loss averaging 1-3lbs a week. It was frustrating at the beginning because it took a while for me to see a change but now I'm down almost 100lbs since May and am feeling great.

Thank you for sharing your stories and input... as long it comes off.. slow and steady. It's a life change... your right!

I like to look at this to see where I'm at compared to where I should be.
