3 Week Post Op

[startingmyjourney 2]

Little disappointed. 22lbs lost. I was hoping for thirty. Meeeh

22 is awesome! Just think, without the surgery, it might have been plus 2 instead of down 22.

I know it's going to be difficult not to be a slave to the scale, but a pound a day sounds pretty sweet to me. Maybe they should take our scales along with our extra tummy space and not give the scale back for 6 months?

I felt the same way when I weighed in on Monday I was hoping for a bigger number. I have been reading that people have been losing 40 and 45 pounds by this week. I know we shouldnt compare but it is disheartening when you are killing yourself and you expect to see something that isn't there. I wish I had words f encouragement but I am kind of in need of some myself right now. Just know you are not alone in your feelings. I am right there. I just try to remind myself that even if I lee 2 pounds a week in 8 months 80 pounds will be gone. Good luck on your jouney!

_{I'm also feeling a bit that way.... I am 15 days post op and on Clear Liquids, so I'm not even eating anything and as of today I am down 17 pounds. I'm down a total of 34pounds (including the 10 day liquid diet before surgery). I'm chosing to stay positive and be thankful that I am most importantly losing! Good luck to you and I hope it starts to melt off of you!!!}

You all are right. I guess some weight loss is better than. I weight loss. I just don't know if I should be doing something more.

With as little I can get in I'm just happy my body is letting go of anything. I'm 2wks post-op and down about 16lbs.
