4 weeks out and.....

 I have lost 27 lbs in the 4 weeks since my surgery...is this pretty average? I seem to have lost most of it the first two weeks and now I am loosing so slow...  I'm scared I won't loose anymore?

I'm eating just my measured amounts.....just started a exercise program....help

Your doing great!  Ever since the surgery - from about the time of surgery till about 6 months - I lost average about 3 pounds a week.  Then from 6 months till now - about 1-2 pounds a month.  So, your doing great!  Don't worry - your body will just loose the weight and will know when to stop, and it will not stop after 27 pounds.  Believe me - it will keep going and going, and it will not matter what you ate or what you didn't eat.  It is really strange how it works.  Sometimes I will be like - OMG - I think I ate a ton today, and I will loose a pound the next day.  Very strange.  Just enjoy the ride and keep watching the scale go down down down....

We all have that same concern but you will keep losing.  Make sure to take in all your protein and water.

Hey there
I'm also 4 weeks out tomorrow....I am down 43 lbs. from my highest weight...however, only 29 since surgery.  So we're the pretty much the same....I lost a lot the first two weeks and then the 3rd week I lost NOTHING....Today I'm down 6 lbs. from this time last week.  I know stalls are going to happen...Today was the roughest day for me....I have felt ok since surgery, but today nothing went down easy, not even water and I threw up several times.  I have my 4 week post op visit tomorrow.  I just can't wait to start soft foods on 9/12!!!!
