[melissa'sjourney 1]

Is it possible to loose 20lbs in the first week?? I waa sleeved on 12/26. First wk was all liquids. I was 323 at my pre-op appt, 303 when I weighed at home yesterday. Im excited but confused as to this being possible.

Yep it's possible. It may be mostly Water weight but that's good.

Its common, but will slow down with time.

Congratulations! I was 213 when I went in and now I'm 201 This morning and it's only been 5 days. I'm sure it's all Water weight but we have to keep up with our Proteins and Vitamins so our body gets all the nutrients it needs. Good luck on your journey!

How is your endurance 3-5 days post op? I am having surgery on Thursday and curious what to expect a few days after.

I felt good. I walked on treadmill a couple of times that 1st week. I am really surprised how good I have felt. I feel a bit weak, but without any carbs that is the way it is.

Thanks so much. I am hoping I rebound quiet quickly. However I understand I am having major surgery so I will need some time to get familiar with the new me.

I was sleeved on 12/26 and bk at wk on 12/2. Slightly tired but not unable to get up and go. But I do sit all day. I rested the entire wk prior to returning. Only up for walks and bathroom.

I weighed 265 at the time of surgery on 12/29/14 and today 9 days later 250 (15 pounds lost). I feel great!
