2 weeks post-op down 19 lbs

it has been hard... i won't lie, but now i see the results so soon and feel great!

i wasn't getting enough protien at first and was dying of hunger, but have begun to try to correct that and am feeling fairly satisfied. not really sure i know what hunger is other than when my stomache has been growling like a lion. but the last 2 days have been good.

my 9 year old daughter hugged me today and said "wow, mom you're loosing weight... i used to not be able to touch my fingers now i can do this- as she entertwined them together :thumbup: made me feel really good... i had to tease and ask "are you sure your arms didn't jsut grow?"

19 lbs in 2 weeks tho... i feel great! hoping i can keep loosing at a good rate.

Its been 5 weeks for me and I am certain I haven't lost 19lbs! I am not sure how much I have lost because I haven't weighed myself, but I need to do the diet properly. I will be hitting it hard on Monday. I am so over being mediocre with this! Congrats to you and I am sure you will do wonderfully!:)

AAwww... those hugs are so wonderful! my 6 yr daughter has been complimenting me on my 'new' outfits (clothes that i have had in the closet for years and can now fit ). I have lost about 30lbs since this time last year and i am noticing more energy. I ma 4 months out and just got my 2nd fill this week. I is not a easy process...but i say "slow and steady is better"!!

Good luck
