Whats the HIGHEST loss you have had in a month???
So my hubby an I were just talking and I got the thought..... " I wonder what the most weight loss had been in a month for other LS patients?" Mine was 30 but that was back in June. When I had my wls surgery . I had lots of complications and spent 18 days in hospital , so I really dropped fast.
Like I said though, we were just wondering. Thanks :)

Thanks everyone :) . I have been losing about 10 lbs a month. But was curious as to what seems to be the "average" given the many variables involved. An yes I a THRILLED with the continued loses. I have a long way to go. I am currently 378 (down from 467). I am aiming for 140/150 so i have a littel wiggle room to leval off around 160. I am 5ft 7 amd as a kid was always a littel under weight so that is what i have in mind.
Do ya'll think it is attain able or am I aiming to low with my goal weight?
