Hey Nicole,
36 is awesome, congratulations. I hear ya about losing slowly rather than not at all! I wanted to see if I fall in the normal range or if the nurse was just being encouraging.(HEHE)

Hello Jo,
I have had a slow weight loss. I was on steroids for almost three weeks. So I am thinking thats why I didn't lose for a while but since my two week pre-op I have lost thirty six pounds. Lost sixteen before the surgery and the twenty since then.The weight loss has started again but its not a rapid weight loss its a slow one.I just feel any loss is better than no loss and I am happy I move around so much better now with the weight that is gone.

How is everyones weight loss going?? After losing alot the first 2 weeks, it is easy to get discouraged by the next 2 weeks and losing a smaller amount. Don't you think?? I lost 18lbs after 2 weeks, then 7 the next 2 weeks. So a total of 25lbs. What did everyone else have after one month??

Denise,
I had surgery 1 day after you. Glad to hear you are doing well with food. I am doing good too. As far as how much you are eating I know with me it really depends on the food. When I eat chili or anything with hamburger meat I fill up super fast and then my pouch gets grumpy. When I eat cheese and crackers I feel like I could way over do it! Just listen to your body, it usually will let you know when something's wrong!!!(HEHE)
