I'm two months out and down 40. I think ur doing great.

I haven't needed one. Ur tummy will tell u when ur done. I'm 8 weeks post op and down 40. :0)

Thanks for the words of encouragement everyone. It's insane that our circumstances can be compared to an alcoholic or other addiction but it is so very true. Well, I made 2oz of egg salad with one large egg and low-fat mayo. I mashed the hell out of it with a fork then chew, chew, chew until it felt like applesauce and it went down ok. A lot of tummy noises (I'm so hoping that dies down a bit). I couldn't even finish it (left maybe a teaspoon). My body told me exactly when to stop. That has NEVER happened to me...or maybe I just never listened.

Lol. Thanks

I'm supposed to start purees today and, at almost noon, I have yet to eat anything. I had my surgery 5/7/13. Going in I had already lost over 10 pounds on my pre-op diet and, as of today, I'm down a total of almost 25. I've followed all instruction to the tee and things have worked out beautifully so far so why am I scared today? Ugh. I feel like it's a showdown with my arch nemesis. lol

I have a tentative date set for 5/7 considering all goes well with my endoscopy next week. Woo hoo! Yay us!
