Hi y'all

I am 7 days post op tomorrow and I am starting to see a difference in my face.  This morning when I was getting ready for church, I noticed that I could see a faint chin line on my neck!  I cannot believe this.  On my scale at home, I have lost maybe three pounds, but this great.  I was not expecting to see a difference so fast!

Has anyone else noticed a difference in themselves and if so, what?   Thanks.

I carry most of my weight below the waist....that's where I'm seeing the loss right now.  My legs and rear are getting smaller.  I'm back wearing my levi's that I haven't been able to wear in 2 years.  It feels good!

my pre-surgery weightloss seemed to come off my face and somewhere between my waist and crotch.  all my pants were super baggy in the butt and crotch.

My face and lower back is most noticeable. But also my hips. I took pics 2 days before my surgery in my pants and sports bra. My lower back had a roll that was very noticeable, and now it's almost completely gone.

who knows..but i am down to my lowest weight in 5 years and if i could i would just be dancing...it's like 8 pounds since my surgery already ( 5 days ago..) 

at this point my stomach goes up and down like a balloon with the gas thing...
my face is actually kinda gross..need to hydrate or something because my skin looks waxy and not so good....probably time for a good pamper day..it is bone dry and cold outside   so that isn't a help.

It is most noticable in my face to me as well as others but I've also had to have my watch resized, my rings don't fit anymore and my shoes are too big!
