I was also wondering they same thing. How fast does the wight came off? 7 days only 3 pounds. I don't know what I was expecting, I thought Id be lower at my first weigh-in.

Yes, I have 6 or 7 inch long incisions from the laparoscopic robot at the incision sites. They aren't huge but they are visible with my shirt off. I guess it could be stitches under the skin know that I feel they that's a possibility., I was told they glued the incisions closed on the surface but not sure what's going on inside. Did they eventually go away or at least get smaller?

It went great. I'm a week out and still a little sore. Doctors said everything went as good as it could have.

I had my surgery a week ago and still have big knots under the skin. This must just be scar tissue. If someone who is a little farther out then me can tell me if that go away? Thanks, Mattk53
