1 week post op, down 25 POUNDS!!!

[BillyTheBear 0]

I can't even believe it! I had my surgery last monday, and for the FIRST TIME in over a year I got on my scale today and it didn't say ERROR!!!! I'm down 25 pounds since weighing in 3 weeks pre-op. I'm not sure how much I lost when and where, a lot has been this past 6 days on the full liquid diet I'm sure (which I've followed very strictly).

But anyway, I just wanted to chime on my short-term success and provide support and advice to anyone who needed it. If I can do this, ANYONE CAN!

Thanks for all your replies. I had my post op follow-up yesterday, down a couple more lbs..the doctor said I was doing great, and very "text-book success" whatever that means.

So here's to all our our continued success!!!!
