Losing pattern

Aug 02, 2011

I seem to have the strangest losing pattern:

On my 6-week pre-op Optifast diet I lost 30 lbs.  I lost 15 the first 2 weeks,  5 lbs each the next three weeks and nothing the last week. That seemed pretty normal.  I never went crazy the few days before surgery.  My big splurge was a skinless chicken breast at my daughter's graduation party.

I came home from surgery weighing 20 lbs more than the morning of surgery.  I knew I would probably be up due to the IV fluids,  swelling from surgery etc., but 20 lbs?  I believe I lost that the first week so I was back to break even after the first week. 

The pattern from there seems to big loss for 1 week,  small loss for 1 or 2 weeks,  nothing on week 4,  repeat.  This is what I did both month 1 and month 2.  But I guess if I am continuing to move down the scale the pattern does not matter.
