Question:
What is the average weight loss at about 11 weeks out of surgery?
I have only lost 4 pounds in the last three weeks. What can I do? I feel great, but the weight isn't coming off. — cece B. (posted on August 26, 2003)

3 pounds, 20 pounds, 60 pounds, it just depends. If you're following your
doc's plan, and know you don't have any mechanical problems, chill. At
about 3 months I realized I lost nothing until the couple days before my
period then I'd lose 8-10 pounds. That continued for the next 15 months
til I made goal and lost 170 pounds. It'll come off. Good luck and God
bless!

Look at the weight loss planner on this website and it will give you a good
idea of where you should be at what time. Also, how much weight have you
lost all together? You only mention the last 3 weeks. How much did you lose
in 11 weeks? Your body may be playing catch up./

There is no average weight loss-everyone loses differently. And it is not
unusual to have slower weight loss weeks or no loss weeks. Just follow the
pouch rules, get in plenty of water and protein, lo carb and lo or no
sugar, EXERCISE regularly, eat frequently, and it will come off.
