Amuse me-playing the waiting game!
So, all I do is research, read, think about, obsess about, etc this procedure, and I'm stuck in the hurry up and weight game we all play to get to surgery day...SO...
How much weight did you lose each month for the first year following your DS, and what was your starting weight?
Yes, I know everyone is different and your weight loss pattern does not tell me what my pattern will be, but a girls gotta dream, ya know?

I logged my progress into a spreadsheet.
My anniversary is the 9th of every month, so I'll post my weights each month:
I'm just a hair under 5'7". I must stand more straight after losing weight, because I had always been exactly 5'6" - but I measured myself at multiple doctors over the past year, and I am definitely 5'7" now. Odd....
Starting 11/9/09: 296
Month 1 December: 271
Month 2 January: 255
Month 3 February: 242
Month 4 March: 230
Month 5 April: 220
Month 6 May: 211
Month 7 June: 202
Month 8 July: 192
Month 9 August: 185
Month 10 September: 175
Month 11 October: 170
Month 12 November: 166 (One year)
Month 13 December: 160
Month 14 January: 154 (Goal: Normal BMI)
Month 15 February: 152
Month 16 March: 151
Month 17 April: 151
Month 18 May: 149
Month 19: June: 146
Month 20: July: 145
Month 21: August: 145
Month 22: September: 145
Month 23: October: 143
Month 24: November: 142 (Two year)
I stopped tracking after two years, and I bounce around in the mid 140's now.
