Should I Be Freaking Out Like I Am?

[whitneymalae 69]

I am so glad I found this thread!! I was sleeved oct 22 and have lost 7 pounds so far, only 7??? And everyone else I see with the same day is talking about how happy they are at 20 + pounds down! I decided to get a friend to hide my scale from me do I will stop obsessing and getting depressed about it! I thought I wa the only one but I'm glad to see other people in similar situations

Hi Whitney. I think most people are posting weight loss that INCLUDES the preop time as well. You're only 2 weeks out! Add the 7 to whatever you lost prior to the surgery. 7 is amazing in 2 weeks!

Don't be depressed.... take it easy on yourself - your body is still heaving from the surgery... weight yourself once a week and be easy on yourself.. make sure you limit the juices (full of sugar)

Tell them it's rude to ask. Tell them the only question allowed is: "How are you feeling?"
