Yesterday was my first follow-up doctor's visit! I lost 16.2 pounds!!! YEAH! Of course, it was hard...but I made it through! This is just the beginning of my journey, but it is happening. The doctor told me that the weight will not come off as quickly for the next few months, at least, until I have my first fill. I am very happy with my progress, one of my boyfriends told me that my face looked smaller, but I couldn't see it...still can't but others said the same thing. I will be starting the walking portion within a week and I try to stay on course. I know it will be hard, but I am ready!!!!:thumbup:

Congratulations. So how long after your 6 Month diet did the surgery actually get scheduled?
