Guest guest Posted March 10, 2003 Report Share Posted March 10, 2003 My surgery was Sept. 27, 2002 and as of this morning I have lost at total of 130 pounds which does include about 13 pounds that I lost before the surgery. I was losing at a rate of 6 - 10 pounds a week. Now I am losing at a rate of about 3 pounds a week. Is this amount of slow down normal? I feel great. I admit that I am not walking like I should, but my wife has agreed to meet with me at the mall to walk every evening after work. So that will help.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2003 Report Share Posted March 10, 2003 Yes, Boliver, the slow down is normal. You are still losing much faster than any of us women. I'm glad to hear your wife is going to walk with you. Take care. Jeanne in WI Age 39 - Dr. T. Chua Open RNY - 5/21/02 5'7 " - 314/218/150-175 djgraves@...

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2003 Report Share Posted March 10, 2003 My surgery was a couple of weeks after yours and I'm losing at a rate of 2 to 4 pounds a week . From most people I've talked to this is the norm. I'm just glad to still be losing. I do miss those weeks losing 7 pounds though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 10, 2003 Report Share Posted March 10, 2003 HA! Mine went 20 the first month, 10 the second month, 5 the 3rd month, and goodness knows what this month. Yep, some slowdown is to be expected . You'll probably enjoy walking the mall together. I wish I had someone to walk and chat with.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 You see what I mean. Threats of physical harm, just because I am losing more weight than some one else. What am I going to do?
