I am today 12 days post-op (surgery May1). I am a little concerned about my

rate of weight loss. I have only lost 14 lbs since preop and nothing in the last 3 days. I am following the diet as ordered. It is strange, because preop I only ate 1-2 meals a day, so it feels like I am eating CONSTANTLY and my mind even thinks I am overeating. Isn't that weird? I should probably throw my scales away, but it sure it hard when that is what we measure everything by. Has anyone out there ever had this problem with feeling like they are eating too much? I am also not used to eating "sweet" stuff like Carnation Instant Breakfast, fudgescicles, yogart..even though they are No Sugar Added, it still seems like a lot of sugar to me. I have been one of those people that never ate at a consistent manner, so when I did, I overloaded it with fats and carbs. Thanks for listening, this site is great. Please give any feedback, it really helps us "new" post ops.
