first month poll

Im having surgery tuesday (rny) and I have two wedding to be in, in a month. Im just curious from the guys how much you lost the first month?

Thanks

The first month after surgery I went from 323 to 303 pounds. But you really never know what your body will do.

Make sure the tuxs can be altered on the spur of the moment!  We'd hate for you to be standing in front of the crowd and loose your pants from where you're shrinking!

58 pounds.  No joke.

Dang! I hope Im that lucky!!

1 1/2 pounds a day...it really takes it out of you.  Really pace yourself on those events...It's not just the wedding...It takes energy to get up, get dressed, drive to the place...walk to the car, stand around, do the wedding stuff and dinner...Don't test new foods at these weddings or you'll be the entertainment and not part of the wedding party.  Just saying you never know when your energy level will drop.  Sit or lay down when you can...don't let pride or formality ruin your day.  Brian

I am approaching my 4 weeks time and including pre-op I have lost 46 lbs. Good Luck.

I lost 30 lbs in the first month.

I lost 22.8 pounds in the first 4 weeks.   However, I had a bunch of fluid that was hanging around  in my belly and I had to get readmitted for them to drain it.    When they drained that in week 5, I lost 8.5 lbs that week.
