I have the same question. I was sleeved on April 9, and I'm down9 lbs. I thought it would be much more by now, am I doing something wrong?

There is nothing wrong with you, I was a slow loser in the beginning as well. My biggest suggestion would be to stop weighing yourself for a while and let your body recover. Remember to drink as much water as you can and make sure you're getting enough protein. The protein also speeds up the weightloss as well.

From what I have read here, that is about average. You probably gained fluid in the hospital and your body had to lose that to get to an equilibrium before losing "real" weight. Many people hit a stall by the 2nd or 3rd week while the body balances out, too. I lost around 10 lbs within 3 weeks. Also gained 14 lbs of fluid (I think--it might have been even more) in the hospital.
