When did you lose the first 50 and then 100 pounds?
I lost 30 pounds the first month and 18 the second, so I lost 50 in a little more than 2 months. I lost 100 at the 24 week mark, so a little less than 6 months.

I lost 18 in pre-op dieting right before surgery in march, then another 50 gone by 12 weeks after surgery.
At 3.5 months post op I am down 64 since surgery (82 total this year).
It comes off FAST in the beginning!

I had my VSG on 3/13 and I've just today reached the -50 mark. (I did, however, lose 25 pounds prior to surgery this year, so I'm down 75 pounds total.)

On December 17th I weighed 332. Had surgery on February 24th and was down exactly 50 pounds from doing pre op diet for 2 months. At 4 months post op I am down an additional 68 for a total of 118lbs. It definitely had been a journey of learning and growth (just not for my butt).
Good luck in your journey Jaq!
