    Do NOT second guess yourself. Losing 10 pounds in 4 weeks is great. All bodies are different. At four weeks I was at the soft food stage. Take small bites and chew. You CAN do this!

Why are you discouraged? 10 lbs in 4 weeks is a great start! Hang in there.

Your meal should be 2-3 ounces of a dense protein, 1/4 c of veggies and 1/4 c of a good carb. I hope that helps!

You are doing great with 10 pounds so far. My first six weeks were very slow because your body is healing and you can't exercise as hard. Be patient!

I went to my 1st post op appt today and she said that I should be losing more than that if I'm following the plan, so I'm second guessing everything I'm eating.
