Day of surgery/ Your weight today-- WEIGH IN, can you?
DOS (7/6): 269.8
Today: 222.2
I didn't lose much pre-op, and my first week post-op I lost 20 of the above lbs. I think a lot of that was water weight. You had already lost a lot of water weight with your pre-op diet, so I don't think you are being fair to yourself if you feel you are left in the dust. I'm almost 8 weeks out and for the past 7 weeks, I've lost 27lbs. You sound right on target to me! You are doing great!! (((HUGS)))

Wow, I am so glad to have found this board......so nice to be able to see how people at the same stage I am are doing!
DOS 236
8/27 214 I only weigh on mondays
I am a little frustrated though....you would think after 22 lbs gone I would be able to wear some smaller clothes....nope...not me, just the bras need to be smaller. The pants are baggy, but that is it. Anyone else dealing with that frustration?

It doesn't matter if you follow "the rules" or not, everyone is built different and will lose weight different. It's the maintainace that will matter the most once we're at goal, and learning new eating patterns and better habits.
