I go Tuesday for my first checkup after my surgery.  My surgeon told me to not step on a scale until I came back to see him.  I had to go to my PCP the other day and I made his nurse weigh me in kg.  She thought I was crazy...until I explained to her.  Plus I don't know how to convert kg to lbs!! I know i've lost though because I already fit better behind the steering wheel in the car!

Oh that would have just killed me.  I would have had to know.  I can't wait until the surgeon so we can hear about your results!  Good luck!

It's going to be so exciting to find out how much you have lost!  You'll have to let us know after you have the appointment.  Congrats on your first "wow" moment...fitting better behind the wheel!  :)

Good am Jennifer, The whole numbers thing drives me NUTS! I personally like the "how I feel", "things fit differently (looser/better)" etc. Its good to have an indicator of how you're doing though. Wishing you the best!

If that is the approach that works for you then go for it!!!  The scale can turn some into a slave, others need the daily update!  Can't wait for your update next week.
