Hi all, its been 16 days since surgery and I have lost 10 pounds. I'm trying really hard to not let the scale rule my life, but i'm working on self esteem issues and I still have a love-hate relationship with the scale. I guess I'm looking for reassurance from other sleevers that 10 pounds is good. I only had a 2 day pre-op liquid diet so I didnt have any weightloss right before surg. I have been on mushies for a week now and i'm doing good with protein and water. I'm working on the exercise part, I have just been so tired lately. Thanks for any input.

I think 10 lbs is awesome!! Tommorrow is my 6 weeks anniversary but for the first 2 weeks my loss was even with yours.Your body is in shock and it'll even itself out just stick with the program and try to exercise some. I'm not lighting any fires but doing my own thing at my own pace. I believe it'll only get better. :thumbup1: Carla:thumbup:

That's awesome!

Sounds good to me, keep up the good work.

I think you are doing FINE babe, we all go at different paces and you just can't compare yourself to anyone or anything else - even your own expectations. Stay on the sunny side, focus on your achievements and on developing new awesome habits. Focus on the water, the protein, the exercise... and the weight loss will just keep on comin'!
