Percentage of weight loss
Hi Everyone,
I haven't posted often but someone on the July board did an interesting post that I thought we could try.
1. What was your beginning pre-op weight
2. What is your Goal Weight
3. What is your current Weight lost
4. Total Weight to loss (#1 - #2)
5. Percentage of weight lost (#3/#4)
Hopefully I got that right
1. 311
2. 145
3. 85
4. 166
5. 51%
I would like to know what the average is for most people at six months out. Have fun

5. Percentage of weight lost (#3/#4)
1. 389 lbs
2. 170 lbs
3. 82 lbs (yay!)
4. 219 lbs
5. 37%
Not what I hoped it would be by 6 months out, but definetly 1000 times better than it would have been without wls!!!
Have a great day!

I don't officially weigh in for another week at my dieticians office, so I have been weighing on my home scale. It appears that my home scale is exactly four pounds low, because the last time I officially weighed in at my dietician's, I weighed myself on my home scale first and my dietician's was 4 lbs higher. LOL...with that said...
My scale now reads 138 lbs. That means, if my philosophy is right, I really weigh 142 lbs. Based on this, here are my stats:
1. What was your beginning pre-op weight....232 lbs (day of surgery)
2. What is your Goal Weight..... 128 lbs
3. What is your current Weight lost....90 lbs since surgery
4. Total Weight to loss (#1 - #2)....104 lbs
5. Percentage of weight lost (#3/#4)...86%
Did I do this right??
Congrats to everyone on their acheivements!!
Hugs,

Let me start by congratulating you and everyone else on their weight loss to date. I hope everyone is feeling better then they did last year at this time both physically and mentally as I know I am.
Here goes:
1. What was your beginning pre-op weight 342
2. What is your Goal Weight 160
3. What is your current Weight lost 222
4. Total Weight to loss (#1 - #2) 120
5. Percentage of weight lost (#3/#4) 67%

1. Beginning weight: 282
2. Goal weight: 135 (mid-high of my "ideal" range)
3. Lost so far: 97
4. Total to lose: 147
5. Percentage lost: 66%
I believe the national average for the percentage of total excess weight lost after RNY surgery is around 70%. That's probably after the "bounce-back," though, and probably based on medically "ideal" weight ranges as well. If I'm right, then anyone who has lost more than 70% of their excess weight has already exceeded average expectations for this surgery!
