Hi, I'm Sara!!
Not sure where to begin, but I'm in the process of getting ready for a sleeve surgery and don't have a ton of spare time from work to go to my local support group, or know anyone else who has had weight loss surgery, so here I am. :) I'd love to meet people going through/who have gone through a similar experience, even just to pick your brains about the one thing you wish you knew, or wish you had done, before surgery?
It means "Super Morbidly Obese" which means you have a BMI of over 50. :)

There is no way you gained 16 pounds in a week. Are you on (or off) any medications that could cause water retention? Breathe. Just keep following your plan and weigh again in a few days. Maybe up your water intake.

Um...I have no idea what's going on this week.
Last week my scale showed 284. This week it's showing 300, now matter how many different ways I step on it or where I put the scale.
I'm 3 months post-op and eating 900 calories a day.
I just know that over half my body weight is fat and it hurts to carry it day by bay! Its gonna be weird to be able to move freely. I cant wait! Everything will be easier. Hygeine and tying my shoes and having a full time job. Yay!
