Month 1 Post-Op Weight in

So, I'm pretty happy!  I went for my 1 months follow up today with my doctor.  I've lost a total of 27 pounds since the morning of surgery in 1 month.  I could be happier!  I am ahead of the curve.  My doctor normally likes to see his gastric bypass patients (the gold standard that he holds his sleeve patients to also) to lose 10% of their body weight in the first month, which in my case would have been 23 pounds. 

I have to say that I LOVE being ahead of the curve.  And I went from a tight size 18 a month ago to a loose 14 or a tight 12.  Woohoo!!!!!

Sorry to brag, but I'm really happy.

No need to be sorry -- bragging is definitely encouraged!  I hope I can lose 10% of my weight (26 pounds) this month.

Keep up the good work!  This is definitely not easy, but it's nice to hear that it will be worth it.

Brag away! It encourages the rest of us! Good for you!! YAY!

Awesome! ANd yes, I also say BRAG AWAY!! Best believe I will be when I start losing!!

I scheduled my surgery with Dr. Mueller for 10/24. I would LOVE to lose 10% my first month! For me that is 36 lbs!!

After 4 weeks I was down 18 lbs, not quite 10%.  On a positive side, its 18 lbs I will never gain back.  Here's to all my sleeve family who have been exceptionally supportive.  Keep up the great work.
