Slow loser. I have been good and yet I don't lose weight. I lost 13 lbs but I'm sure some was water weight so does it really count. Wednesday will be 2 wks post op. sorry, venting some frustration.

Don't stress yourself out Hun! The weight will start dropping soon! Trust me 13 pounds is great so far!!!

Glad to hear somebody else vent as I need to right now! I'm 3 days post op and I'm up almost 11 lbs from what I weighed the morning of surgery. I've decided to stop weighing as it's too depressing especially considering I don't feel so great as recovering from the surgery. I guess it's all the IV Fluid they fed me in the hospital (on IV fluid for 51 hours straight in hospital) because it's certainly not the lavish spread of liquid stuff I've been barely able to gag down - I think I've maybe gotten 50 calories a day in since Friday and maybe 300 calories a day the 3 days before that.

I'm usually such a positive person but this is the hardest thing I've ever done. Just trying to take it a day at a time and Celebrate the small victories. Best wishes to you and thanks for letting me highjack your vent with one of my own. :-)

You shouldn't even be weighing yet. You will not lose for the first couple of days bcuz of the fluids they gave you. And actually everyone gains a few pounds. After week one them start weighing in once a week or whatever you choose. Please do not get discouraged over that.

think about it - you've lost like a pound a day! that's incredible! i'm 3 weeks post op and I've lost 17lbs. I'll take whatever I can get!

You are right. I need to stop comparing too. It's always easier said than done of course. Yeah that is almost a lb a day. I started cardio today So I'm hoping that will also help. @Mizzo, hope you go home soon. Thanks everyone. Kudos to all the weight loss.
