First weigh in 5 weeks post op!

[Synixer 14]

So today its been abit more than 5 weeks since i got my sleeve. i did not take my weight before the surgery itself, but i did check it 2 weeks before. at that time i was 168 kg / 370 lbs.

the weight in my household has a max of 150kg / 330lbs. so whenever i used it in the last 2 years it just said "error" ( we used to laugh about that).

i tried to use it last week and still got the "error" but it was fine. i didnt expect to fly down in weight. today i had this feeling, and decided to try it. it said 148 kg / 326lbs. at first i tought it was a mistake. so i tried again. then i went to my workplace ( hospital) and used their vastly more advanced one. still said 148. talked to my doctor. i had done everything right.

so all in all great day. ive lost almost 20kg/44lbs in 6 weeks (counting from 2 weeks before surgery when i started 1k kcal a day). which is amazing!

My family wants to Celebrate so i think today, ill make my favorite purèe meal Tandoori chicken !

Great start! (And, by the way, thank you for putting your starting weight in your post lest some 250 pound person begin lamenting because they didn't lose 44 pounds in 6 weeks.)

Keep up the good work. I started about 30 pounds above you, and I weigh 173 now (at 6'0"). It is a long journey, but so worth it.

Best wishes!

Thank you! i had seen some people complaining about early weight loss and also speculated their starting weight( they did not mention it) so i made sure to open with my starting weight. also nice progress you have! hope in 2 years that im doing as well as you.
