rate of weight loss

I am losing 2lbs a week at the moment, my bypass was on the 31st oct. I am eating everything as 1/4th of a cup.

What is everyone else's rate of losing?

  • Everybody's body is different. 2 lbs a week is GREAT! Congratulations. Some people might lose 3 lbs, some people might lose 1 lb. It all depends on what weight you started at, how much you have to

    You are right on track 0-5 is the average i have seen around here - Focus on getting a healthy lifestyle not on just poundage, Feels good doesn;t it! Keep it up and at your rate 110 pounds a year!

  • I've lost 18 lbs since surgery 4.5 weeks ago, so average is 4lbs per week; I'm walking for about 40 minutes per day but can't exercise properly yet as 1 of my incisions still hasn't healed and also

For me it really just has varied every week. I know on the days that weight doesnt move that my food hasn't changed so I dont panic about the scale and viola still keep going down. I aim for a monthly goal and try to hit that because the scale can really flux with Water, bathroom habits etc on day to day basis

I guess my monthly loss would be 8lbs , something to aim for I suppose. Its annoying when my lack of food intake doesnt reflect on the scale, but yeah I shouldnt worry about it.

I know this sounds bad but I am most worried about not being able to drink beer after the surgery. I am a social drinker and enjoy having a beer at sporting events or other places. How many beers are you able to have after the sleeve.
In my honest opinion, if you're worried about drinking right now, you're setting yourself up for failure. Drinking alcohol is limited. And Drinking carbonated is basically forbidden. Beer inflames you. Maybe stay thinking about what light beers are out there. I gave up driving socially for 2 years because I needed to focus on losing weight. Now, I rarely even crave a glass of wine. Just my opinion. Focus on what your real goal is.
