So tell me, when can i expect to see the weight drop off?  I am almost one week after my surgery and have had nothing happen to do cart wheels over or am I expecting to much??

You won't see much loss until about a month out.  Everyone is different but you generally still have some bloating from the air they pump in you for the surgery plus the IV fluids.  You're body is also in a starvation mode now and trying to "store it up" since it thinks you might not get any more.  Be patient and....stay off the scales until you go back to the doctor if at all possible.  It WILL come off.

This is the ride of my life.....what an amazing tool I now have!!!

I have mever drank so much in my life or went to the bathroom so much. But ya gotta do what ya gotta do. I have gotten an exercise bike, so when it is cold and I can't get out to walk, I do 3 miles on the bike minimum.

I was in room 2.  Almost neighbors. I didn't stay long. Had surgery on wednesday and left on thursday. I am not doing to bad on the liquids. But they are starting to get old. Yeah I will  be at the meeting. I have a treadmill. But it's a manual and when you try to walk on it, it is a jerky motion. Got a good deal o the bike. It was only $20.00 and in excellent condition.

Patience.  You're nearing the top of the roller coaster, and will soon experience the big drop.  When you do, I hope you have plenty of smaller clothes around.

And he's not kidding about the clothes.  Start collecting smaller sizes, but not too much, as you will not be in anything very long.

I think you are doing great.  I had surgery Aug 13 and have still only lost 38 lbs.  I think losing slow is good.  It gives my skin more time to bounce back.....  Maybe.....
