I am 5 days post-op and am down 17lbs. I went for my follow up today and the doctor was looking at me like I was crazy, like I did something wrong. Did anyone else drop this much weight this fast? Personally, I am happy about it :thumbup:. However, I do know that the weight loss will slow once I introduce more food. Right now I am having all liquids, creamy Soup, and oat meal.

I think it all depends on how much you have to lose. I lost a significant amount of weight in the beginning and then slowed over time. Let him look at you crazy all he wants to...your 17lbs. down! Good for you!

Congrats!!! That's great.

I lost 18 pounds in 8 days post op.

I am now 6 weeks post op and am down about 26 pounds. So once I introducd foods, it significantly slowed.

I am day 7 and have lost 16 lbs., too! I wish it would continue to fall off like this, but we all know it won't. Celebrate your big loss, and look forward to the rest! Good luck!
