Just making sure first few days of weight loss is NORMAL...?

Hey Everyone,

So I am sleeved and officially a "Loser". I was sleeved this Monday July 8th, 2013.

Everything has been going well, but my weightloss seems so, I dint know drastic. I just wanted to make sure it sounds normal to you vets. All these weights are on my scale at home.

7/8 Day of surgery- 271.4

7/10 Home - 274.8

7/11 - 271.4

7/12 - 267.6

7/13 - 264.2

I mean wow... I expected it to come off fast in the beginning and slow down but this just seems super fast. I have been doing well with getting most of my fluids and my protein, and I'm setting goals each day to get closer to my targets of 64oz h2o & 70g of protein. Right now I would say I am eating about 3x per day - 3 to 3.5oz per meal. 10+g of protein per meal and another 20g protein from whey shake. About 40oz h2o. All my vitals are normal. Im voiding normally and having BM's. So... is this normal weight loss in the beginning? Thanks for any info you guys may have.

I'm 9 days out and I've lost 18lbs since surgery! I'm not complaining ;)
