Just thought I would share. This is the expected weight loss ranges for sleevers that my NUT gave me today.

10 day visit- 10-15 pounds
6 week visit- 25-40 pounds
3 month visit- 40-60 pounds
6 month visit- 60-100 pounds
1 year visit- 90-100+ pounds.

Remember, it is a little different for everybody :)

I would think that would depend on how much weight you need to lose overall.

Thanks for sharing this. I discovered that a similar chart was in the booklet from my surgeon so I thought I'd post it too.....might help someone figure if they're on track.

Expected excess body weight loss:
6 weeks - 25%
3 months - 35%
6 months - 55%
9 months - 70%
1 year - 80%

Obestity Help also has a planner that shows projected weight loss by month (doesn't specify type of surgery). Obviously everyone varies greatly ...

http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/information/post+op+planner.php

My surgeon says the most significant variables are how long you have been obese and your age (those of us who are older and have been obese for a very long time go slower). Those who have been obese for less than 10 years often lose much quicker.

I think it's great that your nut gave YOU this chart.

However, I think it's VERY. VERY important for anyone reading this post to remember that everyone is different....sometimes by a little and other times a lot! There is NO exact science to this...follow the plan and do the right things and you'll lose. Don't be in a ru**** WILL happen. But, most of all, remember that it will happen at the rate that it's meant to happen for YOU!

Had I not gone to see my dietician yesterday and have her tell me that a 17 lb weight loss for 3.5 weeks was remarkable then I would have been fretting over those stats.
I too think the percentage one is more logical.... need to think more that way but fits a broader range of patients.
