Trying yet best opportunity of my life.

I had RNY on November 21st and it has been a roller coaster. I have had no complications and healed up so quickly and well. I have been so positive except on the scale. I can't help but weigh myself daily. I got discouraged when the numbers weren't changing, but once I looked at the whole picture, I felt better. The first week I weighed in at 12 lbs lost, 2nd week was 3.5 lbs lost and 1 lb lost so far this week with weigh-in on Wednesday. Are these types of numbers normal?

Also, I am on full fluids for one more week, and I kind of cheated and had 2 shrimp tonight, and it seems to have gone well. I am so grateful for this journey and opportunity, but it can be scary still!

I have been told to keep my starting weight in mind and that this may be why I am going slower. I went into surgery at 267

Some just lose faster than others
