11 Months Post-Op - Still Losing?

[emet1976 20]

I was sleeved 2/20/2019. Nearing the one year mark! Obviously the weight loss has slowed down but I'm curious if anyone is still losing this far out? I started at 273 on the day of surgery and have gotten down to 181 but have been here for a couple months.

I stalled quite a while but now at a year post-op I'm starting to lose again.

Well it depends on how much weight you need to lose and how quick or slow you lose it...

Some people take 6 months others may take 2 years...

It's a very vague question...

I kept losing until I was 20 months out. But the stalls became more frequent and lasted longer the further I got out. I kept thinking "well, this is it...", but then my weight loss would start up again.

I've met my goal. I've lost 92lbs (105 since the pre-op diet) but would like to keep going - which was why I was curious if some people are still losing even past the one-year mark. I know we're all different - was just a vague question to get some feedback on how others are doing at one year post-op and to keep my spirits up that it is possible to keep losing : )

Well when I started my first goal was to get to 200lbs and see how I look;

I'm currently 196 and I've decided to keep going my healthy bmi says 180 so who knows where I'll end up...

That's awesome! It's such a good feeling - I'm chasing the "healthy BMI" too - about 25 pounds away I think. Congrats to you, this is NOT an easy thing we're doing!

I'm a year and four months out with my sleeve and it's really slow. I've lost 5 lbs. in the past 90 days. But as long as it slowly moves in the right direction, I'm happy. I feel great!
