Feeling discouraged

Tday I had my 2 week check-up. Only lost 21 lbs since April 24th. The good news is I get to start pureed foods today so that made me feel better. Penny

ahh, don't be discouraged!!! Could ya have lost 21lbs in 2 weeks before surgery(smile)??? The pounds will drop just as they are suppose to. I think 21lbs is great. Now I am jealous of you eating pureed food Deri

Ms. Deri, Thanks for the encourament. Probley not but it had been over four weeks since I seen the doctor last. That was two weeks before the surgery. I weighed at the hospital and had lost 24 lbs the day after surgery, I said that to my doc, and he said remember that it wasn't the same scales. Oh well 21 is better than gaining. Penny

I'm there with ya! It's been hard to keep my chin up! I've noticed, though, that my clothes are a little more loose and I have more room in my car (seat belt or steering wheel) than I had before. My scale isn't saying much, but it's the other things that keep me going! Hang in there!

I hear ya! Today put on a pair of jeans three weeks ago I couldn't get into.

That's great!! Since my belly is still tender (my gallbladder gave my dr trouble when removing it) I haven't tried jeans. Been a little scared. LOL Afraid they wouldn't snap without laying on the bed, since that was how I had to do it last time.
