I was just wondering how much you all lost at about 3 months and what weight you started out at on surgery day.

I had lost 42 pounds by 3 months (about 37.5% of my excess weight). I started out at 231 and had a total of 112 pounds to lose.

I'm now a little less than 7 months out and have lost 83 pounds total. I have 29 more to go. 

Monthly weight loss:

Month 1: 18 pounds
Month 2: 13 pounds
Month 3: 11 pounds
Month 4: 12 pounds
Month 5: 11 pounds
Month 6: 10 pounds
Month 7: 8 pounds so far (I have another week to go before my 7th month surgiversary)

Not sure yet. Right now, I'm avoiding carbs as much as possible. That's been my plan and I want to stick to that until I hit goal. (I have not been perfect (!) but overall, I've been pretty much on plan.)

Once I hit goal, I plan on introducing small amounts of carbs. I will monitor my weight very closely. The way some vets do it is they draw a line in the sand -- say 5 pounds over goal. Fluctuating up or down 5 pounds is normal, but if they find that they are 5 pounds over goal, they just go back to basics (high protein, low carb****il they get the weight back down. I will be trying that during maintenance.

I had to go back to my blog to figure it out and 57 pounds at 3 months for me. I counted 82 lost though because I lost 25 in the month before surgery.
