  1. I was getting so frustrated with the scales at a stall for over a week, but today is 3 weeks since sleeve and lost 2 lbs. Not crazy good but its a loss and I'm happy. Although I could have mushies I really wasn't, not sure if I was afraid but the protein drinks were so much easier. My calories intake was been really low and thought that would help but doesn't seem like it. Last night I had one scrambled egg with a little grated cheese on it. It didn't go down real easy and got full real fast, actually only ate about half of it but it was good to have some real food again. It does make me wonder how I will be able to keep this a secret from friends and family. My teenage daughter had at least 2 eggs with lots of cheese and 2 sausage links cut-up all wrapped in a flour tortila for dinner. It was huge especially compared to my one egg. She was done with her what seemed like in seconds compared to me. Everyone thinks I am on another "fad" diet, god knows they've seem me do a million of them. I think it was just so noticable how slow and long it took me to eat.
     
    I just pray the scales keep moving now. I bought cottage cheese, mini-babybel cheese, applesause ,etc. and I am going to try to do the 5 very small meals. I am still doing 2 miles every morning on my treadmill and would really just like to keep up a steady weight loss. It doesn't have to be 8 lbs a week (although wouldn't that rock! ), but a few lbs every week I think keep me motivated.
