Wed is my four week follow up. Can I ask what the general population lost by month one of RnY? I know everyone is individual, just curious. Who stalled at week 3? I'm down 15 in month, sound right or way low?

Thank you for responding, I tend to worry I'm not doing as well as I should.

Great link, but I'm confused. How do you decide the % of weight you expect to lose? Is it your goal weight divided by your pre-surgery weight?
