I'm 3weeks today & 9 lbs down. So many people are losing huge numbers but after talking to the dietician I realize it's a good 9 pounds. I've been on regular food with no fill for 2 weeks so I'm happy. Slow & steady. Hope everyone is doing well.

My husband and his huge family are from Michigan, so we are headed up to the North Western part - Traverse City area (pinkie finger area). I've never been to Michigan so am so excited! Where is your cruise going? I love cruising!

Thanks for sharing everyone.I haven't had a fill yet & I'm not sure if I want one. Although I would love to lose quickly I know it's not the best way. I also don't ever want to have food stuck.i think I'll only get a little fill & go from there. You make a good point to let your body do the work. Even though we all want it now. I'm encouraged to keep moving even if it's only 1 pound a week. Keep up the good work everyone.

You are doing great! Better to lose slow than not at all. Besides it gives your body time to keep up with your progress. Most of the time when people lose too fast it comes back fast because of poor eating habits. I'm taking this time to learn and live my new healthy lifestyle. I'm glad you are doing well keep it up!

hi dliteful.... im in australia, we are going out into the south pacific to the tropical islands.... about 11 days. we have to fly from tasmania (island state where i live) to brisbane to board the ship though. looking forward to it... this winter is just so cold, and im feeling more cold since ive lost so much weight. lol.

I will be post op 3 weeks on Tuesday June 26th. Down 14 lbs........have no restriction and possible fill on July 5th. had daughters bday yesterday and ate cake........felt awful after. Im going back on protein shakes tomorrow and starting my exercise tonight! Glad to hear everyone is doing well. I also had hernia repair same day, so that has restricted my eating as well. Hope to keep loosing but knowing there is no restriction is the devil, bc I know I can eat more............................

it is hard but this time will go quickly enough. i didnt do anything in particular to help me though, just that i had some hot cups of bonox, which is a strong beef drink we can buy here in australia. that helped to ease the hunger a bit.

Last month I did 1 LB a week.This month I'm aceraging 2 lbs a week.I think ur on track.
