How rapid is the weight loss?
Weight loss is the greatest in the first three months after surgery. During that time, you may lose at least 20% of your excess body weight. As you get closer to your weight loss goal, the loss will slow to about one to three pounds per week, depending on the individual. Following “pouch rules” with frequent exercise and increased activity will also enhance your weight loss. ABMI offers advice and support post-surgery as part of our comprehensive weight loss program.
