23 pounds in 6 weeks.....that can't be right!!!

Hi, I am pretty new to OH and I really don't post much.  But i need to reach out.  I am six weeks post op today.  I have lost 39 pounds including the pre op liver shrink diet.  I have been at a stall for a week now.  Over the last couple of weeks I finally started hitting the 60 grams of protien per day.  I eat about 600-700 calories a day and I have been getting in 51 ozs of H2O per day= 3 bottles.  I feel really down because I dont feel like 23 pounds in 6 weeks is acceptable with RNY.  I went back to work yesterday and at the end of the day I have an upset stomach when i get home.  I have not had this problem til now.  I am having trouble getting the motivation/energy to walk.  I know I need to move and I thought it would get easier when I went back to work but it seems like my energy level is worse.  Maybe I am expecting too much after being off for 6 weeks.  I am spot on with my food intake and calories.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  

My surgeon said three to five pounds per week is average after RNY, in the beginning.  23 lbs in six weeks is almost four pounds a week, so pretty much perfectly average.  I think you are expecting too much.  What did your surgeon tell you to expect?

We started at almost exactly the same weight. At 6 weeks out I had lost about 25 lbs. I thought it was pathetic, too because I stalled twice. It worked out to a tick over 4 lbs per week, though so that calmed me down some. You are doing fine!!! The scale will move again soon!

The speed you lose depends on the amount you have to lose but an average of 4 lbs per week sounds right on the money to me.

Could u have done 23 lbs. in 6 weeks before surgery? Sounds good to me!
