Just Curious..how.....

[swstacey1977 0]

How much weight are you loosing per week? how about per month? at first, my doctor told me he wanted me to lose more than 2 pounds a week. of course, i had to set him straight cause he was very consertivie with the fills and i knew better. i know that one can expect 1 to 2 pounds of weight loss per week with the band and after he finally gave me my 2nd fill, i started loosing 2 pounds a week. so i was just curious about others. is the band working for you and what are you doing to help the band work? i do cardio 3 times a week (20 mins at a time) and i walk 4 days a week (1 hour brisk walking0. i have also changed my eating habits.

I was losing 3 lbs a week but now that has slowed to 1 to 2 lbs per week. I do cardio 6 days a week for 1-2 hours each day. I also weight train 3 days a week for 45 minutes.

In 6 months I have lost 34 pounds, so basically a pound a week with very little effort. I am starting to exercise in hopes of speeding things up.

I lose about 8-10 pounds a month... but I typically have 2 weeks a month that I don't lose anything and 2 weeks that I lose a bit nearly every day. I'm happy with 6-8 pounds a month. However, toward the end of my 2 week no-loss period I start to doubt myself and worry that the weight will never come off again. :-)

My only exercise at this time is 30-60 minutes of walking 3 days a week on average

Out of the almost 7 weeks I've been banded I've only felt restriction 2 of those weeks. During those two weeks I lost like 4-7 pounds each week. On the off weeks I've lost like 2-3 pounds a week. There was two weeks where I lost nothing... but gained nothing either... I just got my second fill yesterday, but it felt pointless to me as it gave me no restriction whatsoever.. and I can't get another fill until May, so it looks like my weightloss will be slowing down for the next 4 weeks and I will be happy just to lose 1 pound a week as I'll be doing this on my own now. :-( Very frustrating. As for working out; I work out every single day. Even on Sundays.
