Finally slow steady weight loss...which is good. I am 24 days out and I have lost 23lbs. I lost 15lbs real fast then I plateaued for over a week. I freaked out!! It has now been steady weight loss. I have heard many comments on how people can see it in my face. My clothes are loose too. I love it!!!

3 weeks and 4 days out, I have lost 26% of my excess weight with a lose of 27.5 pounds. I had a slow start and thought I would be a slow loser. I am happy to find I am average.
I agree with the barfing. Last week I started throwing up more and more. I figured I was eating too much or too big of bites. But, on Thurs. I found I couldn't eat anything thick or solid (blender). On Sat. I found I could no longer drink anything including water. Finally, this Tues. they found a stricture. They stretched it out. They have to go back in this Monday so they stretch it the rest of the way to the size my surgeon wants. I have only barfed once since then. Life is very good.
