1 month post op

[nataliebx 0]

Hi

Today marks 1 month since I done the operation and have only lost 7 kilograms (15pounds)

I kind of feel upset that i haven't lost more considering I have also been training (1 hour cardio session everyday)

What did everyone else loose 1 month post op?

Thanks!

I'm one month out and also down just 15 lbs although my doctor said that is good as many patients retain fluids after however I read all the posts of people losing like 30+ lbs in first month. Also of course the heavier individuals are the more they'll likely lose in beginning. Perhaps 15 lbs is good for our starting weight?

Sleeved 12/19/16

Start weight 208

Current 190

I feel the same. I thought I would lose more and I barely lost 18lbs I'm not happy at all. But I do agree that if the starting weight was on the smaller side then it will take longer but it's frustrating when you have gone through so much.

Yes I agree! We are very similar in weight.

I saw my dietitian today and she said I was doing fine and that is the normal weight lost.

It's not going to happen overnight but was hoping to see more off the scale.

Next follow up is in 4 weeks so not going to look at the scales until then.

Yes!! That's why I was stressed because I saw so many people post that they lost 30+

Saw my dietitian today and she said I was doing great for my weight and too not stress about the number on the scale so I'm just going to avoid looking at it

I think definitely the bigger you are the more you will loose first and each body is different I guess.

I am 5 weeks post op. 209 day of operation and now 181. First 2 weeks had a good weight loss then week 3 and 4 I lost very little. Going into week 5 there was quite a good bump and big weight loss. I had post op complications too (ruptured spleen) so no exercise either. It will come don't worry

I'm 4 1/2 weeks out and down 18 pounds from surgery. I had a stall for a week, lost 2 pounds in 1 day and have been stalled again.

I'm 8 weeks post op and so far I lost 29lbs. There were some weeks I just stalled. Today I started to exercise, let's hope it helps.
