I am just 10 months out and went from 324 to 190. Size 24/26 to now a 12/14. I am very happy with my results. But, my question is Dr. said the RNY would get me to about 170. But, I was told that the "tool" works for about 12-18 months. I am only 10 months out and still losing about 10-15 a month... I figure by Sept I will be 170... unless the weight starts to really slow down. Is there a chance I will lose more then 170? I am really hoping so. My goal is 140. I am not losing nearly as fast as I was... but I am still losing alot of inches. It wont be long and I will be in a 10.

 If you are still losing 10 pounds a month I consider  you lucky. I have always heard it does slow down and level out  and then you have to really work on it to keep losing. I wouldn't worry unless you were under normal weight or couldn't lose. As long as you stay healthy just keep smiling.

All doctors have thier own opinions on this but mine said you could loose for up to two years.  That's why he didn't want any plastics for 3 years.  Maintain your goal weight for 1 year and you can loose for up to two.  I think you'll be fine and I'm sure your body will settle into a good weight for it when you get closer to your goal.  Good luck! ;) Lou

you can lose weight at any time, the tool continues to work , it just is harder.  and is about like dieting before you ever had surgery.....  the first year losing weight is easy and is all the pouch ,
second year is about half you and half your pouch,,,,the third year and beyound is all you but you can still lose..

Thanks! I am really busting my butt trying to lose this weight... I want to be to my goal by my 1 yr anniversary or close to it. I seriously dont think I will lose 26 lbs a month, ha ha! But, I will do my best to hit my goal by the time I am 18 mnths out. I appreciate the response. I have responded but it didnt save? Hope everyone has a great weekend!!
