Anyone feel great at a week post op?

I am a little over a week post op. Surgery was seemingly easy, and I wasnt bothered much by the anthestics. Doctors tell me I am part of the 1% of the population they dont do a job on. Once I got passed the first couple days at home I felt wonderful. Off prescription pain meds at 5 days out, and even over the counter tylenol by 7 days. Got walking right away and walked over a mile on my one week from surgery date. I am thrilled but afraid something bad is lurking around the corner and that I will crash and burn. My attitude and energy level has skyrocketed I feel like someone lifted a lead weight from my shoulders. Got on scale today down 22 pounds since right before surgery, Is this common and should I expect the dark side coming?
