I believe 50 lbs is about average for 3 months out. After 3 months, things will start to slow down a bit. Don't let it bother you, as it is very normal! Congrats!

I took me longer to lose 50lbs, so you are doing great! I began very slowly and then, BAM, it just came off and I met goal in 9.5 months. I had 110 lbs to lose..I have since lost more and am trying to stop losing...wish me luck! Best of luck to you! hugs<kim

That seems to be about normal. But I cant tell you (I am 16 months post op) that I lost weight until about 14 months post op. I guess it depends on how much you need to lose. I was at 318 on surgery day and now I am 165 pounds as this morning. So good luck to you sounds like your doing fine. Enjoy this time, because its only going to get better!!

You are at about average - some it takes a little longer to lose 50 lbs, for some it goes a little faster. That's probably why your surgeon couldn't give you an exact answer, but they will definitely tell you if you are not on track, and most likely request extra testing to check your bloodwork. I'm 2 1/2 months out and I've lost about 55 to date.
