Any jpouch step1 feedback on your body weight, did it stay the same, add, or lose in first two weeks after surgery?

I have lost 13 pounds so far...surgery was 12days ago. The weight loss is a wonderful side effect for me since I gained about 30 pounds from all the medications.

I lost a little weight after surgery, but I'm about 6 weeks out now and have returned to 185 which is roughly where I was to start with.

I had a blockage after step 1 and lost 16lbs down to 102lbs, by the time i had step 2 i was back up 10 lbs of that(112) on Dec 2. Now im up to 145lbs gaining weight is so much easier without colitis. i'm 6'1" so the weight is definately a good thing. I was 170 before I was DXed 5 years ago.
