Sleeved 2/28, home but minimal loss

Surgery was successful. Very little pain and I’m able to drink water and protein drinks. Came home yesterday and I’ve been walking like crazy.

Got on the scale this morning and was surprised that I only lost 1 lb. would this be normal?

Keep your chin up! :-) Every person's body is a little different and reacts differently to surgery. All you have to do is stick to the plan and the losing will eventually begin. It is easy to get discouraged when we read all these stories about dramatic weight loss. It is also easy to lose patience with the process and expect instant gratification. Believe you me, I am one of those instant gratification types. Trust the process and let things happen.
