FUNNY question for post op 3 weeks or less

Ok a lil humor but have to know if anyone who has recently had the surgery are home thinking " hmmm, I'm still fat, but I KNOW I had the surgery" LMAO I.e. just waiting for the magic from the hard work to show? I'm 9 days post op and refuse to get on a scale. I don't intend on becoming obsessive with a scale. I just want to focus on doing this properly and see results. With that being said can't wait for 90 days out to see progress. Please share what u have been thinking.

    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.
