Hello All,
I am being sleeved in one week! I'm excited and nervous.
I wanted to know from all of you who have had surgery already: how much weight did you lose in the first month after surgery? Also, how much did you lose month 2 post op?
I know everyone is different and each person loses differently! I am looking for an average weight loss so that I go into this with a reasonable expectation of how much weight I might lose!
Thanks in advance.

    Lost -60lbs before surgery 6/15/15 : 230lbs pre-op

    Lost -32lbs in 6 weeks since surgery 198lbs today

    Hard to believe that another 8lbs will mark 100lbs lost. Crazy!!
    Take it one day at a time and believe in yourself.

    Awesome, Vikki!

    You'll get through the surgery fine and have a great head start on your weight loss. We'll be thinking about you on Tuesday!

    I'm slowly healing. I'm in pain but pain lets me know I'm still alive! I had 9 ounces to drink today and did ten laps around my wing of the hospital. Not sleeping well though! Tomorrow's another day!

    Congrats 2poufs on your success! Out of curiosity, have you reached your goal weight?

    Wonderwomanvik Posts: 2,932 Member
    Anbrdr that is a great one month loss. I'm hoping to be on the higher end, but I'm trying to stay realistic. I'm not sure what that number is, but your sharing helps. Thank you!

    Lioykavsg wow, you are doing amazing! I just estimated, but it seems you've already lost 60% of your excess weight at only 5 months out!! That's amazing. Keep up the great work!
