5 weeks post op

5 weeks post op and I am down 21.6 pounds. I know everyone loses at different rates but I just thought I would have lost more by this point. I'm still very happy with the 21 pounds though. My clothes are fitting more comfortably and I can almost go down a size. I'm eating right around 60-70g protein . Around 600 calories/day and I'm trying to get 64oz fluid but sometimes I have difficulty reaching that. Can you tell me your experience at 5 weeks??

Im also 5 weeks post op and have lost 20 lb, I was also a bit discouraged until my husband reminded me I lost 19 lb in 2 weeks with my pre op diet, so 39 lb in 7 weeks is pretty good. I had a 2 and a half week stall then I lost 5 lb this week so I'm glad the stall has broken. Everyone's weight loss is different so I guess we shouldn't really compare but should focus on the long term goal to be healthy. Good luck on your journey ssbthodge x
