6 weeks post-op and down over 30lbs which I was a little bummed about since I thought I would have lost more weight.... but then I tried on my "skinny" jeans and they were loose! I have to keep reminding myself that not all weight is fat. Being more acive means there's new muscles developing too. Throwing those jeans into the Plato's Closet pile of clothing made me do a happy dance!

i have a family event exacly 6 weeks after my surgery... and i can only hope i loose 30lbs by then... by that said.. you are doing quite well to me

Eliminate the word only from you vocabulary. I only lost 30lbs becomes I lost 30lbs.

Add an exclamation mark and a pinch of enthusiasm. Mix well, and serve warm:

Hey everybody, look at me go! I lost 30lbs!

Be well…

thanks! now I can say after today that I have lost 35lbs!!!!! I'm going to totally win the wedding haha. I also realized that 30lbs is 20% of the weight I want to lose. 20% gone! WOOT!

That's a good way to look at it. I get frustrated that my weight loss is slower than my friend. Using your suggestion, I'm halfway to my goal!
