Still a slow process

Well I am 12 days post band, and have lost 13#. I am going to have to hide the scales though, I find I am getting on them 2-3 times daily. I go back to the doctor in 2 days for my 1st check up. I am not sure if I will get a fill or not. I think I need a small one, because I can now hold what I feel is too much ( a cup) at a time and most of the time I am hungry again in 2-3 hours. I am watching the protein though to make sure I get enough for healing. Skim milk is my snack when I am hungry before mealtime and I guess the calcium is good for me. In 2 days I can start back walking and I can't believe I am looking forward to it. I have set a mini goal...for Oct.8...I will be 2 months out and I hope to have lost 30#. I have a meeting and only one saved suit that I can barely squeeze into, but not wear out in public that I hope will fit. I spent the weekend with my daughter inventing new recipes for the mushy stage and have a few high protein ones that are really wonderful. Crab augratin...with ff ricota and swiss cheese was wonderful and 1/2 c had 20g protein and only 220 calories, kept me full for 5 hours. All for now...gotta go to work.
