Just wondering what you guys lost during your first three months post-op and or when you lost your first 100lbs?  I know that there are a lot of variables from one person to another and no two people will lose the same amount at the same time but I am curious.

I've lost  95lbs. in eleven weeks and am 6'0'' tall.  I've always worked out and been quite active.  Definitely not a couch potato.

I'm a testament to people losing "differently".  i'm 2 months out and only down around 32-40 depending on the scale (my doctor's scale always has better results than mine at home...LOL). 

However, I lost 40+ pounds pre-op (so totally, i'm down over 70 pounds), which I think has contributed to my slower post op loss, as I was already down a lot......had a stall for 4 weeks at week 3 after surgery.....just a mess.  LOL...but i'm losing again now, and hopefully it won't stall again anytime soon.

I have lost 45lbs post in 2 months and 35 pre op. 80 total.  RNY people will lose faster. I am happy to be a slow loser.  I am losing is all that matters to me.. 

5x to 3x shirt
56 to a baggy 52 pants....

I was just released to lift, so just had a kick ass work out...

You are right on target.  I was 282 the day of surgery (lightweight I know).  I hit my goal of 190 at 6 months and 10 days.  Men really do lose it faster.  I have noticed over the years that those who are active (it really doesn't matter what they are doing), tend to loose the weight faster.  I was losing about 1 1/2 pounds a day early on (it really takes it out of you).  The weightloss became slower and slower as I neared goal...But the energy level got better and better as I neared goal!!  Enjoy the ride.  Brian

 Thanks for the feedback guys.  I appreciate the input.  I'm pretty happy with my results so far.  I've been doing pretty much what I'm supposed to do but I wanted to make sure I was on track.
