Just curious.....

How much weight did everyone lose in their first week post op?  I know it depends on starting weight and all that, but I was just curious.  I lost 17.2 lbs my first week and I'm happy with that.  Thanks!!

I dont even think I weighed myself the first week - i was more pre-occupied with healing than the weight loss at that point. I didnt buy a scale until 6 weeks out and guess what - i was one of the lucky few that didnt have a 3 week stall!

Dont get obsessed with the scale too early out and try not to compare -i know you are just curious but its a natural tendency and can really put a damper on your own sucess. Just a little advice from a vet :)

Congrats on a great 1st week. Keep resting, sipping, and walking. 

This depends on how overweight you are the greater the greater the Weight Loss but usually 12 to 15 pounds but I have heard that some people have lost over 20 pounds in the first week after the gastric sleeve
