Slowed weight loss

I'm about 10 days out from surgery and have lost 13 pounds and looks like weight loss has slowed down. I started with a low bmi to begin with and I know that weight loss is slower. But I can't help but to think the slowed weight loss is an indication of my success. I had a hard time losing weight without surgery and because of that I feel that I'm going to be one of those one in a million people that won't have success from surgery. Anyone relate?

This is perfectly normal. Just focus on getting in your protein and water and following your program. The best thing to do is to stay off the scale.

I'm 10 days out, 13 down as well. I started with a higher bmi so I say your doing great. It is very easy to get discouraged especially when you see other with huge weigh losses for the first week. I'm losing like oz a day now. I'd rather loose slow and steady than not loose at all though. Hang in there!!
