Thank you all I feel great!

Congrats! So refreshing to hear such a nice story. I'm 3 days out and hoping for relief. Way to go!

Awesome! I'm almost 5 weeks out and am also quite happy. It has been harder than I thought in some respects but 20 lbs down and feeling better in my clothes sure helps! Congrats to you!!

I'm 4 days post op and just got on the scale and I started at 315 I'm already down to 304 11 Pds in 4 days and I'm not hungry at all pretty amazing

Good job! i'm 4 weeks out also my surgery was on the 24th,but i'm still on pureed,my next stage is soft foods.can't wait because t'm tired of putting everything in a blinder,so my soft food starts on th March 4,i lost 22 pounds and feeling great,so i'm excited about that..

I too was sleeved on Jan 24th. Mine was a lap band revision. They also did a hernia repair. I have only lost 16 lbs. I am 56 and am hoping that my slow weight loss has something to do with my age. I hit a plateau for the last week or so. Any suggestion?

my surgery was jan 21st. I'm 54 years old and today makes 5 weeks and I've only lost 17 pounds. it's a bit frustrating that the last 2 weeks I have bounced up and down instead of steady losing more. but I'm trying to stay positive and believe that it will come off in time. I figure if I only lost 6 pounds a month from here on, then I would be another 60 pounds down by Christmas, which would put me at 157 and although I'm aiming for between 138-148, I would be ecstatic too see the 150's again!
