I have my 2-week post op appointment Thursday, and I've stepped on the scale a few times and kinda feel like I should've lost more. I'm supposed to be on strictly liquids, buuuuuuut [emoji849] I know I could've done better. I hope to hear good things on Thursday, but I know once I get back home that I'll make myself do better. Also!, I hope once I actually eat eat that I'm really restricted like most.

We all lose at different rates. Man? Woman? I'm 5'31/2". Was 201.5 on surgery date( 3/2/17). Plus I'm 66yo. My metabolism is in reverse!!! I've read where some people lost 30lbs first month. Well, that will not be me...I've lost 8lbs and I think I'm HOT!!! I've never lost this much on all the gazillion diets I''ve tried. This is a new tool and we have to be patient with it. Never mind what the other guy does, be thankful for YOUR pogress. You will be awesome

You got this. We all lose weight differently. I think 2 weeks post op I only lost like 6 pounds.

I'm 6 days post op and my scale says so far I've lost 4 so it seems a little slow right now for everyone

You muuuuuust follow the nuts instructions! [emoji12]

Our biggest fault is that we compare ourselves to others. Again so much comes into play. Gender, age, predisposition with medical issues you name it. I'm four weeks post op and down 20 pounds. I feel I'm eating nothing compared to my old lifestyle and want to the scale to reflect that. But I know it will come.

Glad to hear from a fellow 65+person. Why do you say your metabalism is in reverse?
