What is the MOST you lost in a month and what was your starting BMI???
Hey -
Here are my weight loss results that are from my blog.
July 14, 2009 Surgery Day - 410 lbs.
August 16, 2009 - 371 lbs. (39 lb loss for 1st Month)
September 13, 2009 - 353 lbs. (18 lb. loss for 2nd Month)
October 11, 2009 - 339 lbs. (14 lb. loss for 3rd Month)
November 8, 2009 - 327 lbs (12 lb. loss for 4th Month)
December 6, 2009 - 314.2 (14.2 lb loss for 5th Month)
January 3, 2010 298.4 (15.8 lb loss for 6th month)
January 31, 2010 285.6 (12.8 lb loss for 7th month)
February 28, 2010 = 274 lbs. (11.6 lb loss for 8th month)
March 28, 2010 = 265.2 (8.8 lb loss for 9th month)
April 25, 2010 = 257.4 (7.8 lb. loss for 10th month)
Current Weight as of May 2, 2010 = 253
Keep in mind that we all lose at different rates. There are so many variables. Age, starting weight, (My BMI was 71), type of surgery (I went with restrictive only), gender, amount we exercise, metabolism, caloric intake, etc).
Hope this information is of help!

My starting weight was 461 lbs. and BMI of 61. I think I lost over 40 lbs. in my first couple of weeks or so. My surgeon said that was a record for his patients. I suspect that a good deal of it was fluid, though, as I probably urinated more during the first 72 hours after my surgery than I think I normally did in a whole month!
