21 days and counting!

So... It's been 21 days since my VSG surgery. I feel absolutely terrific! 24.5 lbs lost so far! Currently losing about 1/2 lb/day... No complaints at all! I fill up with 4oz of mushy food and never feel hungry! Best of all, I'm sleeping better since my obstructive sleep apnea is already greatly improved, I have much more energy, my joint pains are practically gone, and I already feel 10 years younger!

My only regret so far is that I didn't do this sooner!

Congratulations! Tomorrow is my 21st day and I'm feeling good too. I don't have the same results you have, but I'm pleased and if the trend continues, I'll be satisfied. I like this tool!

We all lose at different rates, but the most important thing is not to get discouraged!

Actually slower weight loss is much more healthier... It's taken us years to put the weight on, so a few months to lose it is nothing in the grand scheme of things!

Hang in there!
