I cheated myself!!!

I walked by a scale and got on it, I promised myself I would wait until my post op visit March 22.

 

And what did I see:cool:

 

the scale moved from 274 (weight date of surgery) to 255 (yesterday):):( :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

 

I dont know if I was seeing stuff or of the scale was off I got on and off the scale 3 times. And I wanted to cry and jump but my tummy wouldnt let me.:think

 

I was speechless I got a calculator to do the math and

255 from 274= 19lbs gone ?????? :eek: :eek:

Is that normal am i losing to fast?????

 

Maybe I'm trippin real hard but I cant believe it

It hasnt been a good 2 weeks yet.

I dont know what to say my face looks very different my neck seems longer my arms are smaller, my 44 G's are shrinking..and oh yeah my 20's are very loose

 

Maybe that 19pounds was all Water and Air from the surgery. :nervous :nervous :nervous

Its very well can happen! Especially if you are following liquids. I lost approximately 20 lbs in 3 weeks.

But - I stalled from 4 to 6 weeks, then started losing again, so be prepared for some stalls - but enjoy your ride - it sure is a fun one! I'm almost 2 months banding and down 46 pounds!

I lost 12 in the 1st week. I went out and bought a new scale thinkin my old one was broke. It did stall between 2-3 post op. I introduced mushies and reg food , But didn't gain. But what a great incentive right off the bat to get movin. That is awesome water, air whatever. Just so it goes down. Congrats!!!
