Thanks to all of the advice here on the board from successful vets I am rocking my VSG but do get a little worried about the rapid weight loss because they told me at the clinic that my weight loss would be slower than RNY but consistent!

I am not sure what the heck is going on but I am dropping significant numbers every week - I'm not complaining but I hope that it is safe weight loss! I keep telling myself that a stall is right around the corner. I think this week I amped up my walking and that contributed to the weight loss success this week.

SW - 368
LW - 284.5
TW - 276.9

Total Lost this week = 7.6 pounds

This is what the past weeks of weight loss have looked like in reverse order....

7.6 pounds
5.9 pounds
4.6 pounds
4.3 pounds
5.9 pounds
4.5 pounds

I fired off an email to the dietician just out of curiosity...but holy geebus! That's some significant weight loss right there! YAY VSG!

That is awesome!

I ramped up my walking to walk/run intervals and too saw a jump this weekend.  I only hope it continues as yours has.

VSG results often rival the RNY. I wish that myth would go away. Not all RNY folks drop weight quickly. Good work on your losses so far!
