I call mine Sleeve Perry.

@@Yaberhoo has already heard this but I named mine Sleeven Tyler because right now he has a BIG MOUTH (gurgle growl gurgleee) and is kind of gross. Hoping to rechristen to Bruce Sleeve (for kicking a$$!!!!) once he learns to pipe down

I lost 41...but everyone is truly different.

I am laughing so hard at all these names! I haven't come up with a name for mine yet but I'll think of something today!

I don't have a sleeve yet, but can I just say how entertaining I found this post? Well played!

I remember my weight loss at my 2wk follow up & and my 6 week f/u. After that it gets fuzzy. I only really keep track of my current weight.
I know as a newbie it's exciting to step on the scale post op. You've been looking forward to this for a long time. Finally you'll get rid of this weight. Many have in their minds this big number . Truth is some do get that big number, but others get a small number or no loss at all. Still some even show a weight gain from being swollen, IV fluids and the like. In the end it doesn't matter. What matters is you relearn how to eat and live a healthier lifestyle.

This is a weight loss journey not a weight loss race.
Don't compare other people's losses to your own, everyone is different. People with more excess body weight can lose more, men typically lose faster than women, some people may be on certain meds that can affect weight loss, some people are exercise enthusiasts and eat less than they are supposed to, etc.
Someone can develop "pound-is" envy over the numbers.
Note: Your mileage may vary.
