I just got back from my post-op appointment and the verdict is....drum roll please..... 4.5 lbs bringing my total loss from the pre-op diet to 13.5lbs.

Great job! Great loss!

Now for my stats - I started pre-op at 228.2, at surgery weighed 220.4 and for my first band weigh-in was at 216.6. So that gives me a total of 11.6 in 2 weeks! I don't see my surgeon for another 3 weeks. I see my PCP next tuesday and i know he will be pleasantly surprised - cause i will be close to a 20 lb loss in about 6 weeks

WE are on our way! Congratulations everyone!

hugs, Pat

Pat, great job!!!

It's awesome to see the scales moving down instead of UP! :thumbup:
