[ladylaura 77]

I was sleeved on June 10th....(7 days ago), and I'm down 7 lbs. I feel like I'm slower than I should be I guess it could be the swelling and all? I don't know...

I was sleeved On June 11 my starting weight was 294... After the preop liquid diet for two weeks I was down to 280... And now six days. I am 273.. So I am down a total of 21 pounds...go us for Losing weight and getting healthy we are on the losing side.. Also my doctor told me only to weigh myself once a week.. LOL.. She totally knew that I was weighing myself multiple times a day... She also said take pictures.. So you can see the weight difference:)

Me too. I was sleeved the 10th and I am only down 8. I was worried for a while, but hey, we are losing not gaining! That is a great thing!

I was thinking about you the other day and wondering how it was going! So we're in the same boat. Are you still swollen? Any pain?

[SueJH 205]

Wow, you are all doing great! I weighed myself before I went to the hospital last Monday and weighed again this morning. I am only down 2.6lbs! A little discouraging, but I'm trying to be patient and see what happens in another week.

I don't think I'm swollen anymore. Not that I can tell anyway. I had some mild pain during the 1st 24hrs but I'm feeling great now!!

Thanks for the reminder, Lunaya!

We're all going to be at our own pace, and I'm just glad to be losing!

We're weight loss warriors!

If you don't see huge drops the 1st week do not be discouraged!!!

Many of us gained 5-10 lbs in the hospital between the IV's and gas pumped into our bellys for surgery.

I know I gained as I could hardly button the shirt when I came home that fit fine when I went in and I only stayed 1 night!

I didn't weigh myself for 2 weeks as I didn't want to see an increase:)
