How much did you lose...



Recommended Posts

.... At 3 months post op? 6 months? 1 year?

I'm getting close to surgery (Feb/March) and am getting excited! Just thought I'd see what people experienced for the first year! ????

It's been 16 weeks and I have lost only 50. This seems a little slow to me- but I started at 212 pounds.... So I expected it to be slower. Great luck!

50lbs in 4 months sounds absolutely amazing!! Congratulations, I hope I'm as lucky as you!

Old info but here is where I was. I'm 5'7" and my surgery date was 8/29/16.

Keep in mind men lose MUCH faster than women.

Try not to get so hung up on the numbers. How much each individual loses is variable for many reasons. You'll just end up disappointed if you set unrealistic expectations for weight loss. Instead try to learn as much as you can about post op life and prepare for the complete lifestyle changes this surgery requires. The rest will follow.

It took me 5 months to lose 50 pounds.

Just sayin.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
