I had the open rny on Oct 3, 2005. I lost 23 lbs in 2 1/2 weeks. The last couple of weeks i haven't lost any weight. Is this normal. I am really getting frustrated.

Thank you

Yes this can definately be normal.

23lbs in 2.5 weeks is way too much. The odds are you have lost a lot more then Fat. Probably a lot of water and muscle.

23lbs in 2.5 weeks would be almost 1.5 lbs per day....which could almost be considered impossible. You would need to Cut out or burn off a combination of 5200 Calories a day to lose that much in fat. This just isnt realistic.

what are you doing to lose weight?
