Jenny, I think 25 pounds in two weeks is GREAT!! You're doing very well. Remember when asking a question like this that a few things make a difference in everyone's weight loss....beginning weight, height, how many pounds a person needs to lose. I'm 5' 7", beginning weight 259. I've lost 25 pounds in 4 weeks. Someone with more to lose may lose quicker, someone with less, slower. You're doing great. Deb

Hi Jenny, I agree with what was said above. I think 25lbs is also great for 2wks. I lost 26.5 lbs in the first 2 wks and could not have been happier. One thing you have to remember is not to compare yourself to other's everyone loses differently! MICHELLE

25 pounds in two weeks is great. I just went for my post op visist at 3 weeks and had only lost 26 pounds. You are doing great and remember not to compare yourself to others. The weight loss depends on each individual,

I started at 352 and at 4 weeks out, had lost only 13lbs. An AVERAGE figure is 25 to 30 in the first month, but that can vary quite a bit, apparently.

I was 5 weeks out yesterday and stepped on the scale I am down only a total of 25.2 lbs. Only 5.2 lbs in the last 2 weeks. I am finally getting my energy back after upping different vitamins so who knows where it goes. At first I was bummed but then I thought about it I am in INDIVIDUAL something my insurance co did not see. Maybe losing slower right now is better for me, maybe it gives my skin an extra chance to catch up. I do not own a scale in the house and so I stop by the Doctors office once in a while to check. It is the same scale each time. I am going more by the way I am feeling than how much I am losing. Tanis 272.4/247.2/Goal???
