I am down 45-46lbs. We were at the pool yesterday ( shirt still on) and people are saying wow you look good! I really wasn't expecting that yet but I guess it has started. Questions like what are you doing?...Answer---Not eating much and not drinking alcohol which is true. I have the right tool to get this done!

That's so great to hear! I bet the compliments and questions will keep coming as you run into people who you haven't seen in a while. Nice Job!

Very odd to hear this after years of being unsuccessful. I m averaging about 4lbs a week even with the stalls. I should be close to goal around labor day I think...Thanksgiving worst case scenario....I hope.

I live in a super small town and did not broadcast I had WLS, the rumor was I had some crazy disease for the longest time, I sure hope I wasn't dying. After the compliments came the sympathy casseroles ......lol.

now most people have gotten the message that I am not dying nor do I have a strange disease or cancer, I am just healthy !!!

Gotta love it!

That's so AWESOME!!!! Feels great, right? You might luck out anyone suspecting because I know for my husband, like a lot of men, if he gives up beer for like, a week, he drops 40 pounds!!! Again, so happy for you!!

Enjoy the compliments! You've earned this!!

I spoke with my neighbor the other day and we hadn't talked in person since surgery. She was very concerned that I had cancer. (She had cancer and wanted to make sure I was alright) I am an open book, so I told her that my wife and I had WLS. She said I don't need to lose any more weight and I told her I agreed and am working on going into maintenance already.

I love it!! Enjoy! My weight went up and down so many times over the last 15 years that I'm sure people just assume I'm at it again.

@Betty1971 the sympathy casseroles are hilarious!!
