Wow what a lost!!!! I am 3 months today and I am 60 lbs. I have a hard time with protien drinks because I can not tolerate anything sweet. Makes me so sick to my tummy. So I struggle there. I eat pretty much anything else but very little because I do not want to eat at all. I do not see my weight lost at all. I have a extremly hard time eating or reading the difference in carbs what I can and can not. I feel so stupid at times. Congrats to all, I will get there one day I hope... Ann

Amber, if you don't mind me asking what are you eating? how often are you eating? make sure you eat/drink protein first then wait a few minutes. the fullness come very shortly after you are finish eating.

I had my surgery on 10/1/03 and I too have lost 53 lbs. And feel great.

Kim, Your weight loss is wonderful! I want to remind you that everyone looses weight at their own pace and not to compare. I know how you feel though. It is hard. My friend had surgery the same day as me and on our first post-op appt she lost 41 pounds and I lost 23! I was shocked. Well we had our 2nd month appt today and her total wieght loss is 59 pounds and mine is 54! I am catching up with her big time. She did not loose hardly anything this month were I did. It all evens out in the end. Congrats again on your wonderful weight loss! Tanya ps email me your phone number and I will be more than happy to be your support person!
