Stephanie everyone will loose differently due to their starting weight,
desired ending weight, medical conditions and their commitment to exercise.
I used this link for a guideline.

Fill in the information then preess calculate. That will take you to a
page showing your goal weight and what you can "expect" to loose
each month. Good luck Stephanie!

Everyone is different, I was told some people gain after surgery due to
fluid but this goes fast. I had surgery 12/09 and am down 54lbs. It's
slowed down as time goes on cause I'm eating real food vs. mush and liquid.

hrs per day every day . i eat very little. 2 protein drinks a day 1
yogurt at night 2-3 table spoons of food per day, a piece of lunch meat for
lunch. plus all vits &suppliments that are requird. no defiecencys in
labs so far. every body says i don't eat enough, but i haven't fallen over

20+lbs per month. dr says evbery thing OK. everybody has a different pace.
good luck hank

I lost on the average about 6.25 lbs per week. But everyone is different,
and it also depends on how much weight you have to lose. From what I
understand, the more weight a person has to lose; the slower it comes off.
But...as long as it is coming off, that is the main thing. We didn't put
the weight on overnight so it won't come off over night. Be patient. It
will all come off in due time.

I had RNY 11/08 and lost 150 lbs in 6 months and then it tapered off. Have
not met goal yet just a little more which is the hardest. Everyone is
different, hang in there, it will start falling off with amazement! Good
Luck!

My surgeon says 1/2 lb a day is adverage. I'm still waiting for surg too,
5/4 for me. I understand the anxiety. I truely understand the need for
support. Make friends here on OH, all are happy to help. Hugs. Jane

Hi, I went in for my 2 wk post op today and was down 17 lbs since 3-10-10,
I ony had to do a total of 3 wks on liqueds one week pre op and 2 wks
after. I'm happy because I'm going in the right direction. They seem to be
happy with my progress at the Dr's office and I look forward to be in a new
number bracket very soon.. Yipee.. Like everyone has said I think everyone
loses wt. differently the important thing is to be losing. Keep up the good
work..
