New Year's Knockouts how many lbs did you lose by the time your first month of surgery rolled around. Even if you gained some of it back (like me) when you started to eat solids again, just post the original loss. Congrats to those of you who have maintained the loss from the liquid stage. I lost 19 then gained back 6 :glare:.

i lost nothing my first month. i am now almost 2 months out and have lost around 8 lbs.

I've lost 25 and a half pounds, the first month I think about 20 and then things slowed down once I started eating "real" foods.

I followed the post op diet perfectly and I started out walking a few times a week...I have a lot of weight to lose and think that might be why I have lost so much already.

I lost 5 lbs during pre-op stage.

12 lbs for the 1st month post op.

Plus 3 more this month so far. Total = 20lbs down.

I have lost 13 pounds so far. I get a little crazy with the scale so I made a plan to only weight every 2 weeks.

Week2-11 lbs

Week4-2 lbs

Week5-I changed my plan we will see on friday.

HI DX MOM, I saw your Avatar is a nurse. Are you a nurse. I am an RN and work in the neonatal ICU (at my hospital it is called the ISCU (infant special care unit) we also have a NICU that is the neuro ICU. Anyway, I love talking to other nurses, so if you are interested in keeping in touch my e-mail is sea.jules@comcast.net. Best wishes with your weight loss.

I was banded July 8, 2010 and I have lost 12 lbs. so far.

Banded May 5th...started at 212. Weighed in today at 165! Wooo~hoo!! 47 pounds down in 3 months. This is seriously the best thing I have ever done for myself. I wish so much that more people could have this opportunity.
