I'm 3 days post opp and I probably made a huge mistake getting on the scale today. I haven't lost 1 pound!!! My biggest fear before doing this was that I would be the exception and that I wouldn't loss weight..... That thought immediately kicked in and now I'm a ball of tears.
Did anyone notice weight loss so soon after surgery?
Surgery is tomorrow and I so glad to have read all these post about walking. I am promising to myself no matter how much pain I'm in or weak I am I will walk walk walk as soon as I get clearance to do so. Need to keep in mind that's the only way I will feel better.
Thanks to both!
I know men loose faster then women so I'm thinking I should weigh myself weekly oppose to daily. I don't want to get depressed if I don't lose one day.
I am having surgery tomorrow and have been excited up till today. Now I am soooo scared! I am mostly scared of being the "exception" and not losing weight. I am 4'9, 219. Lost just 5 pounds on the pre-op diet ( but it was just 5days long) so weighted 224 last Thursday and I feel as if I should be weighing less.
Overall I am so ready for this weight to come off. I am way too short for this!
