i can't get over how much several of you have lost so soon after surgery. Was there a particular day where you suddenly started seeing the change? I'm on day 5 and still have a little gain from the surgery Fluid (started 10 up and lost most of it but I'm still above my starting weight.) When did you see the scale shift and these huge losses show up? 20 -- 23 lbs down in 9 days is mind boggling!

Would be a lot of fun to wake up 4 days from now and discover that I lost another size :D

I'm with healthyjudy, would you all mind telling us how much you weighed the day of surgery? I ask that because I would like to know if anyone started where I am at 235-ish.. 5 ft 6". I don't want to be super disappointed if my results aren't like this in 9 days. I get we all lose at different rates, but I would like to have something to compare to.

I haven't noticed the physical changes that he has...wish I did. However, I have a very accurate scale. Day of surgery, I weighed 288,(5'7) yesterday I was 268. I never gained water weight. I typically lost a pound to 2/day. I am now up to 2 protein shakes a day(60g protein) 4 oz at a time...and flavored water, lemonade, diet juice or broth. Can't stomach straight water yet, but I wish I could...tired of sweet flavors.

Looking great! Brave man to do the pics…I can't even face a camera yet.

Busymom - How long ago was your surgery? 1-2 lbs a day is fantastic!

June 2nd. Thank you

I know what you mean, I've lost 25 in the 3 weeks since, and more than the visual even, I'm just excited about the way my body moves so much easier! Although I will admit, being able to put on jeans for the first time in years was super cool! (lol)

Well done! I have my surgery on 16th July and I will be so happy to be on the losers path! Let us know how you get on
