Hello All. First Post!

Hiiya everyone.

Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself.

I had my surgery the day before my 22nd birthday, on June 28th. So it's been almost 4 weeks now.

I'm feeling alright about it. It's hard adjusting to such small portions, and the carb withdrawl almost killed me the first 2 weeks, but I'm happy.

I've only lost 20 pounds though. Is that normal? My doctor says "everyone loses at their own pace" which I understand, but I just am so anxious and excited and want to lose it all fast. Is anyone else going through that?

Anyway, I'm super glad I found this site. It seems really heplful and supportive. I only wish I knew about this place before my surgery :P

You're doin great! I was sleeved June 27th and I've lost 14 lbs since the day of surgery. My ticker says 30 lbs but that's b/c it includes my highest weight before my preop diet. Of course I wish it would come off quicker too. Take care :D
