Yes, it is normal for men.  Your weight loss will slow down soon...
Good job!

I lost 20.5 pounds the first 12 days so yep its normal. I go back to the Dr. today and I think that I might be upset with the result. Which is stupid if Im upset that I lost 5 pounds in a week. I mean that is 20 pounds a month. Wow. I will let you all know the results.

It's normal...sip sip sip...even that protein shake...Yeh, I know gross!!  Some of the weightloss was from the IV, all those fluids they were pumping into you.  I was losing 1 1/2 pounds a day for awhile.  Soon you'll hit your first stall and wonder what is going on...that's normal too.  Watch for the signs of dehydration (I preach that one a lot).  This process takes a lot out of you, it may be hard to grab for the energy...it just won't be there...but it gets better with time.  Brian  PS Your breath and urine should start to smell bad...also normal...Ketosis.
