Well we did it!!! Today is our 2 month surgiversary. I know we shouldn't compare, but it would be nice to see your weight loss progress.

I am down 47 pounds!!! (none lost pre-op)

Have a wonderful day!

My surgery was Dec 19 so it's not exactly my surgiversary but I'm close. I am down 58 lbs! The first 53 lbs came off in 3 1/2 weeks and my doctor was concerned that it was WAY too fast, so he increased my meals to 6 a day instead of 3 and made me have an upper GI, which turned out fine. I think I had a lot of water weight that I lost - I don't think it was all fat, but it sure has made me feel better! I can breathe again! I still have a long way to go, but that first 50 lbs made all the difference in the world to me!

I have since slowed way down and am thinking I need to do some exercise instead of just thinking about it. I am back down to 3 meals a day - although it's hard to not have another meal now - I was spoiled for a week! I would love to see more of our December surgeries post here too! Is everyone as happy they had this surgery as I am?

Mine was the 17th, so I'm close! I'm down a total of 42 lbs. including pre-op. It is slow going for me but I will get there eventually!

Congrats to everyone. We've come so far!

Not that I'm glad you guys are slow losers, but boy am I glad to see I'm not alone!! I am Dec 17th and am down 37 lbs (7 of those were pre op). It's so freaking slow but at least it's down.

Your definately not alone, my surgery was Dec 19, and I've lost 28lbs, in the first 5 weeks and have been in this lovely stall since then... hmm only good thing is is that I've lost almost 20 inches in the time since surgery.

Meet the Surgeon Aug 1, 2011 .... hopefully the surgeons office is right and everything will go fast and I'll have surgery later this month.

I am down a total of 45. I think that I have lost slowly because I was only drinking my protein and not eating. I wish you all the very best.
Have a great day!!!!
