I think I lost 60 pounds in three months - 100 by six, but I can't remember if that was before my pre-op diet loss of ten pounds or after!

OMG i am the slowest loser ever.
I lost 33 pounds (22% of what i need to lose), i will be 3 months in 3 weeks, i will be happy if i lose 10 more pounds by then.

I lost about 60 lbs in first 3 months, which was about half my excess weight. I have since hit a stall! OR at least not losing as quickly as I was before.

In pounds, the answers aren't going to help much...in percentage of excess weight, you will get the info you need.

I lost about 46% of my excess weight by the three-month mark.

I notice there is a huge difference in weight loss varying from person to person. I still think this was a fun post! Thank you for sharing everyone!!!

Looks to me like you're just over 50% EWL. That might be a little bit speedy, but speed of loss has yet to be shown to be an indicator of any long term results. Relax and enjoy the ride :-).
