6 week post op visit and great news

First I am not bragging just want to give people some insperation. I had my surgery on dec 11th. everything went smooth. I was back to work in a couple of days and at the gym by day 6. I have been eating 800-1000 cal per day and working out 4-5 days a week. So now to the good stuff 6 weeks = 65lbs. I am so happy I hve not been down this low since I was in high school. The doctor told me i may not even need a fill. I have been able to met anything I want just in moderation. I think it is because i have been following my vitamins,workout , and food. Anyway good luck to everyone else. I have 35 lbs to go to get to where the doc wants me to be an d 55 lbs to get to where I want to be.

jwiess, If you don't mind my asking...are you Male or female? It doesn't matter. Your accomplishments are incredible regardless and you should be very proud. I'm just curious because with my experience reading these boards the guys seem to loose so much faster than the women.

I am male and 27 wich could have to do it.

My day starts with yogurt and a protein shake, lunch usually small salad or soup and then normal dinner That is it. I truely believe it is because of my dedication to all this. Follow what the doctors and nutritionist tell you. For most of us this is a life changing experience so embrace it. I personally go with the thought that it took 27 years to gain all this weight so 1 -2 years is no big deal to dedicate to this.
