NEED SOME ENCOURAGEMENT!!! HOW AM I DOING?

Just need someone to talk to me.  How am I doing?  I don't have to go back to the doctor until the 13th.  At 4 weeks out last weekend my family and I moved to a new home.  I picked up too much and now I'm down with my back. Anyway, I have now lost 39 lbs in 4 weeks.  How do you think I'm doing?  Just need some encouragement.    Thanks so much.

Kitsy,  At 4 weeks out you are doing wonderful. Just be careful and not picking up too much. You do not want to hurt yourself. I did not do any heavy lifting for about 3 plus months. I wanted to make sure that I did not hurt myself inside. JUst PLEASE take care and REMEBER to be KIND to yourself. Hug's Jeannie

I lost 18 lbs my first month, so you're doing wonderful!  Be careful, you've had major surgery and need to take it easy for a while. Becky

You are doing wonderful...I think the biggest thing is to remember that even though you're a month out you still have to be careful...I know most docs recommend no lifting for 6 weeks.....take it easy...and great job!

GO KITSY!!! I lost 49lbs my first month... It can be done!
