Wow, that's awesome! I'm about the same amount of time out but I've only lost about 42.

So, maybe you can encourage me. I'm about 2 weeks post op. My first week I saw a loss of 5 pounds. Second week I've lost 2. Did you see slow loss? Or did it melt away pretty quick? My sister-in-law had it 18 months ago. She lost 30 pounds a month! 90 down in 3 months. She said everyday was a loss. I'm not so lucky. She seemed concerned. I see my surgeon on Thursday. I'm just trying to get a feel of how realistic my goals I set for myself are.

It will all be worth it. Don't give up!

Btw, amazing!!!

It will all be worth it. Don't give up!

At first it was kind of slower and I even gained some as I transitioned from barely being able to sip on water to being able to eat soups and actual food but after about a month it started happening more quickly for me. Good luck!
