3 weeks post op - questions and concerns

Oct 29, 2012

Wow - can't believe that it has been three weeks today since my sleeve.  I was so excited that I had lost 28 lbs in that time frame!  Now I am concerned because the scale has been up and down, but never less than when I weighed in at the doc's office on Thursday.  is this because I am eating some real food again?  I am still getting less than 700 calories a day, and I am trying to be more active.  I am back to work now full time.  My sugars are under control/consistent, and I am eating all my protein.  Normally this would be around the time of my 'monthly gift' - could that be affecting the scale?  I am also noticing that I am not 'regular' - the doc said it was probably due to the high amount of protein and my body isn't used to it yet.  Should I be concerned?  What do I do to get things moving again?  It isn't painful, but it is starting to get uncomfortable. 

I am sure I am just being silly, but this is all new to me and I don't want to mess anything up.  Thanks for your input!
