Amount of Weight Lost in 3 months post-op

[Want2BFitMama 12]

How much weight did you lose in the first 3 months post-surgery?

I had the sleeve in December and have lost 41 lbs since surgery (60 total). My doctor thinks I should have lost more than that in 3 months. Just curious to see how others did.

I lost almost 60 in 3 months but everyone is different. What was your starting weight?



HW: 282.2 lbs
SW: 256.4 lbs

About 50. Everyone is so different though.

I’ve lost 43 lbs. Saw my surgeon yesterday. She was very pleased. You’re doing great. In another 3 months at the same rate, you’ll be 82 pounds less! Sounds like your surgeon is not being realistic. We all don’t drop 12 - 20 pounds/month. Your rate of loss is safe and consistent. Keep up the great work! [emoji259]

About 53....but everyone is different. I’d say congrats to you and keep it up!

My first goal was under 300 and then my next is 250 and then under 200.

@Want2BFitMama.... how are you feeling at 3 months post op? Do you feel the difference since surgery?

[Want2BFitMama 12]

I feel a huge difference. More energy and ability to do so much more that I couldn’t before and able to keep up with my 3.5 yr old.

Oh my gosh, that's awesome!! Now that's what I'm talkin' 'bout!! LOL I hope I lose at least 40 lbs by the 3 month mark. I'm afraid it might be less. (I've lost 17 lbs in this first month.) But progress is progress!

HW - 228

SW - 202

3 months - 170

so I am 32 at 3 months and 58 overall. I have struggled with getting my protien in and so I have had several stalls but I am ok with it because I am feeling 100% better than I have in years. Everyone is different and my doctor says as long as you are loosing something its better than nothing. Keep up the good work.

Around 60lb (90lb total). My doctor was very concerned that I was loosing too fast. She said this can cause excess muscle loss and issues with Vitamins. My muscle/fat loss ratio is still good buy I'm waiting on my blood test results for the Vitamin issue.
