Check In your Monthly Weightloss ( or progress) Since Surgery

Hello,
I have read recently a lot of people who just had surgery depressed about not losing weight.
You are losing weight ( as long as you follow plan) or your losing inches and/or  your body
is adjusting.  This is not a fast process like crash diets we have been on in the past as to where
we continuously lose a lot of weight. This only happens in the beginning and we usually fall off the wagon the first month or a few months at best.  This sleeve and eating is a life style change.

I am posting my monthly progress so we can all have an idea, an average, how much weight to expect to lose every month.  There are some here that have lost more and some less. Its all OK
and not a race.  This is not intended for comparison, just an idea of what to expect. So
please participate and post your progress.   If we eat pizza and drink soda and have slips in the month then expect not to get a good weight loss that month. Also the concern would be
the lack of creating good eating habits and committing to this new life style change in eating.

For those of you that have kept record ( i know some haven't) Please post your monthly stats
(or if your new, post your weekly or current stats) with your  weight loss progress please.
Its OK if you don't want to participate, but I know it will help somebody if you do.

For those that worry about stalls or not losing enough.....  and as long as you stay with true 
sleeve food plans,  you are doing it.   If your not doing it, make some changes in what your 
eating. 

Below is my signature with my stats since surgery. Most normally may not see this when I post since signatures are 2 inches long with Firefox browsers, IE, Google Chrome...etc...

I just wanted to say how glad your post made me feel!  I am consistantly losing 2 lbs a week.  But I'm glad it's possible that there are some 3's a 4's later on down the road :)

I don't have the weekly stats here at work, but my surgery was 7 weeks ago tomorrow, and I've lost 39 pounds.   

Surgery Date:  7/27/11

HW: 320
SW: 305
CW: 278

WLSS:   27 pounds

 Oh, I want to play! 

Day I got my band I was 319 
Day I got my revision I was 236
I am a little over 3 weeks out and I have lost 17 lbs!

Total 100 lbs lost!

I'm 6 weeks out today.  Down 29 lbs...10 of it was pre-op.  41 from my highest weight.  Happy with the results so far :) 

I am 4 weeks out as of tomorrow. This has been my progress so far:
Pre-op diet: -9lbs
Week 1: -10lbs
Week 2: -2lbs
Week 3: -1lb
Week 4: -0lbs

So you can see the past 3 weeks I have hardly lost ANYTHING .....but I feel GREAT and thats most important right now. The lbs will come off eventually
