10 days post-op--shouldn't I be dropping pounds everyday?

Aloha All!

I was sleeved on 6/14 and so far I've dropped 14.5 pounds. The first 5 days I dropped 2 pounds a day, but in the last 5 days I've only dropped 4 combined. I was on the clear liquid diet. How is that possible that I didn't continue to drop every day?

I know it will come off, it just worries me that it's already slowing 10 days out and I'm not even eating real food yet. Am I destined to ALWAYS struggle with my weight (I don't eat and still won't lose)! That would only happen to me.

Any thoughts?

Ditto. I was so excited, the first week, I lost 11 pounds!!! Then, got horrible acid reflux and was put on Reglan, still following the plan but gained 3 pounds. I cried. But, I am going to continue on the journey and tell the surgeon on Thursday and maybe she will switch the meds (hopefully it's just the meds). It's such a bummer to work so hard, get excited to get on that scale and not only did I not lose, I gained!!!! So, you are way ahead of me , my friend <3 Keep up the great work!

i was sleeved on june 11th. 9 days out i had lost 16 lbs. i will get weighed again thursday and see what i have lost. but i started "full liquids" yesterday, so we will see if eating pureed foods makes a difference. i'm not feeling any lighter or really seeing any changes in myself yet. it will be 2 weeks tomorrow.
