FUNNY question for post op 3 weeks or less

I actually had a sort of opposite experience. I had kind of felt like it would all be slow, no one would notice, i would be able to not tell people I'd had the surgery. I'm down about 25lbs since pre-op and suddenly, I looked in the mirror and I looked thinner to myself. And an outfit I had worn not long ago that fit normally then was baggy and loose. So now I'm like, Hmmmmmmm. This is going to be noticeable...

I do know what you mean, though! I kind of wish I had a chart to follow that indicated how much weight I'd be down, and when. It's funny making plans and thinking, "I wonder what I'll look like in February/April/June..."

I'm 3 weeks post op on Monday. I started to see a difference right away. I drove myself crazy with the scale because it was on the fritz. I ended up literally throwing it out the window. It was liberating and I loved the breaking noises. Then I bought a new scale. I dont really care what the scale says because i can SEE a difference. The scale hasn't dissapointed me yet, though. And I step on it often because I like the blinky lights on the display. Ha.
