I am 10 days outta surgery and since then I've lost 8 lbs...for a total of 18 lbs (with pre-op) which is about 12% of my body fat.....my question is is it too soon to start seeing changes in my bodily appearrance? I was looking in a full length mirror today and things looks different is this just wishful thinking or is anyone else noticing some changes also?

For myself I never seemed to get comments from anyone until I'd lost a good 25 (I weigh nearly 300) and even then usually just on my face. I think it's even harder to see it on ourselves BUT if you're seeing it, I think you're seeing it. CONGRATS1

No way! I would notice at that loss and did. I notice every 5-8 pounds

I noticed I was losing in my ass and breasts...wish it was my belly but I'm only 1 month post op as of today!

You may want to do some measurements. You can revisit them monthly to see changes. I've gone from 52 DD to 42 DD
