ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted November 19, 2012 what's normal coki216NORMALl???? Here on the sleeve board?? NORMAL???? Us??? LOL the one thing the same/normal - is that we're all different, physically and mentally congrats on making it through week one i hope you are continueing with a good recovery, and WLS went smoothly post surgery - normal - tired, gas, little vomitting mentally - you are adjusting/ realizing that you have made a life time committment to better your health and happiness you follow the rules in the sleeve 101 handbook and you'll do great "normal" to have many ups and downs - roads get bumpy - but we're all survivors stalls are probably the most common bond we share - but they will leave, sometimes have to be more patient than othertimes God Grant Me Patience Just Hurry Up About It scale is different for all - some people lose faster than others, but thats ok - its not a race - this is the rest of our lives if it takes you one month or one year longer to lose weight than someone else.....whats one year in the rest of your upcoming healthier life don't compare your weight loss, the time it takes to lose weight to anyone else, how much weight you lose at a time the scale can be the devil - try not to be a slave to it by weighing yourself constantly, daily etc. weigh once a week, not more often come here for "pearls" of wisdom advise, but.... medically speaking - always listen to your NUT and surgeon welcome to the wonderful world of the sleeve best of luck NEWBIE hope this helped a bit always happy to show off my new stats - i worked hard for them DOS 12/15/11 235 lb 11 months later 11/20/12 137 .9 lbs 97.1 lbs gone forever 2.9 lbs til goal - century club congratulations on the best decision of your life - having WLS good luck newbie 2 WhoozisAnyway and lessofmeismore reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
