gastricsleeve_girl 2 Posted November 15, 2016 Hello! I just wanted to ask, is there someone else besides me, who has had a slow start after sleeve. My surgery was 11/09 - so basically week ago. With first 3 days I lost 7.3 lbs, but with next days I haven't lost much. Total lost for this week is 8.4 lbs. My BMI was 35 when I started. Is that the case?

It will just make you question your progress and you are doing great!! Everyone is different because they started at different weights, have different accompanying health issues, male or female, it all makes a difference!! Be happy for others but don't let their successes make you doubt your success. You are a brave champion and you are changing your life for the better! You are doing AMAZING!! Don't ever doubt that!!
