Weight Loss Question

Hi Everyone, I was wondering, how fast is to fast when losing weight after RNY? I started on 4/27 @295lbs and now I am 267 in 15 days. I am drinking all my water, well at least 40 oz and protein fluxuates between 30-50g. I am worried I am losing too fast. is this normal? Jen

Everyone looses different I have been out 10 months and have lost 150 pounds. I lost quick and now it is slowing down. Your doctor should tell you how you are doing but sounds good. Congrats on your weight loss

Sounds like you are losing well. You may need to get more water and protein in.

You're probably losing faster than most, but as your surgeon will tell you... every patient is different. Sounds like you could probably get some more water and protein though, your body is probably in a high state of ketosis. Jay

WOW,Thats great took me 8 weeks to lose 41 and i was excited then if i lost the amount you have lost in 2 weeks i might have passed out.I agree with everyone else we all lose different let your doctor decide whats to much.You are going to appreciate the lost if you platuea hopefully no time soon or never.Keep up the good work

I had my surgery on 4/25, and have lost about the same amount. My doctor also says that every patient is different and will lose at different rates. You are getting in more protein than me -- I am having difficulty choking down the protein shakes.. yuck. I also am having difficulty with the water, because I'm having horrible indigestion... But Congrats on the weight loss!!! Kelly
