Any April 1st sleevers?

My surgery was April 3rd, so in another week or so i will be at the 3 month mark. Doing well overall - i am down 40 lbs and just this month i have really started exercising. I walk 2 miles every morning before work and i got a Nike Fuelband and this is keeping me motivated. I really thought that the weight would come off faster - but at least it is consistently coming off. I feel like I can eat A LOT... a lot more than that 1/2 cup they said I would be able to eat. That being said, Im not overly hungry so i think i am still having "head" hunger and am trying to get my arms around that. Also - gettin the Protein in is hit or miss. 60-80 grams is a lot.. would love to know how you all are doing it.

I had surgery on the 2nd of April and my process has gone pretty smoothly. No complications. As of last Wednesday I was down 50 lbs. Starting weight of 271 current 221. I'm 5' 10'. Overall I am happy with my progress. I had some weeks where I would loose only 1 lb and some when I lost 4-6 lbs. I have no idea why this happened. I can't find any trend that would cause this. As far as my hunger goes, it's weird sometimes I feel like I can eat everything and then other times I barely eat and am satisfied. I do indulge in small amounts of goodies at times like Gummy bears, twizzlers, sherbert, etc... But even on those days I only have small amounts and still don't go over my 800 calories a day. I try to exercise 3-4 times a week. I do step aerobics mostly or walk. I use the my fitness app and a fitbit flex to help keep me accountable for my activity and food. My Protein intake is around 40-60 a day. I drink a Syntax nectar Protein Drink everyday so that gives me 25 g. I also started juicing and drink a juice everyday. They sometimes have a lot of carbs in them so I stopped paying attention to my carb intake. :/. I also stopped taking my Vitamins religiously. I kind of take them here and there. I have my 3 month check up next week so I hope my levels are ok. I just hope I continue to loose weight. I'm scared I will fail and regain my weight.
