Feeling pretty discouraged...

   Stepped on the scale this morning and only down 1 pound this week. Is this typical fo week 2 post op? I lost 15 pounds in the 1st week and then this. Is this normal, should I be worried?

I'm only 4 wks out and I avoid the scale like the plague....

Dont worry about the 1lb.  Thats pretty good for 15lbs the first week.

Please dont stress....  But, limit the visits to the scale  :)

So you've lost 16 pounds in just two weeks?  Well, that's more than a pound a day, which is a little faster than normal, but I don't think it's so fast you need to worry about it.

Everybody loses differently, but it sounds like your right on target. Keep up the good work!

There is no normal, cuz we are all different! 

If you are following your doc's plan, then what is happening is normal for you.  If there was something wrong, you would have pain or other obvious symptoms.

So, relax and enjoy the journey!  Congrats on 16 pounds, by the way.  That's fantastic!

 I went UP 4 pounds in week 2 so don't worry.  I now only weigh once a month and it is bliss not being a slave to the scale.
