  1. I had my surgery on July 25th and have been very strict on following the plan I was given. Surgery was outpatient and I had no diffulculties getting in the protein shakes, water, and vitamins for the first week of full liquids. I am trying to weigh myself once a week and at the one week mark I lost 12 lbs. My plan says to start week 2 with soft foods with protein goal min of 60g and fluid goal of 64oz. I have met those requirements with my calories averaging about 500-550 per day. However, at my 2 week mark weigh in I have only dropped .6 lbs. I am walking 30 min every day (approx 2 miles). Does this seem normal so early in the process? I had expected that I would at least loose 2-3 lbs at a minimum. Per the suggestions on this site I have tracked everything using MFP and I am following all the rules. It was very disheartening and frustrating to see my weight yesterday. Anyone else have a major slowdown so early in the process or advice to offer?
  2. I also had my sleeve done on the 25th and the headache today was tough. I had already stopped the pain meds, so I took some junior melt away Tylenol and that did seem to help. I also allowed myself a SF Popsicle as snack since I had no problem with the required protein shakes and water. My recovery has been very easy thus far, so I am hoping that the hunger is some kind of temporary 'carb detox'!
