I am 5 weeks and two days post op.. I've lost 32 pounds but for some reason I just feel like its not enough! I have had no problems other than sleeping and I hate protein shakes but I think I am gettin an obsession with the scales! How are others doing at 5 weeks?

I spoke with my dr today and he is concerned but just wants to monitor my temp and as l long as it isn't persistent he said I should be fine... I think it's just the trauma my body has endured an I think I over done it yesterday. Thanks for the feed back just hoping my temp stays down

I was sleeved on Monday all has went normal and I had a very good day yesterday I got out and about with my husband but crashed about 4 o'clock in the afternoon then started running a fever but it was gone when I got up this morning... Is this normal or should I be alarmed?? I also feel like I've been run over by a Mac truck today...
