I'm headed to my 1 week post op appointment. I'm excited to see how much weight I've lost but I'll be saddened if it's not much.

@@jwidner Please don't be disappointed - we usually gain weight after surgery with all of the fluids from the IVs and swelling. Concentrate on getting in your fluids and Protein - don't worry so much about the scale at this point! Good luck at your appointment!

Thank you @@KristenLe

I gained 2 pounds. So I'm at a total of 20 pound loss since I started. What you said is exactly what the dietitian said. I'm not doing so well with my Protein. So I have to get at least 2 shakes in a day. And I suck at taking my Vitamins.

Water, Protein and Vitamins should be the most important thing you do everyday and adding in exercise. Make sure you're adding Biotin for your hair. I hear so many people talk about losing hair, I can honestly say my hair is thicker than ever and I'm really on purpose will all my vitamins, water and protein
