Jami -

That is just fantastic! If you haven't already, be sure to take measurements. It is very possible that you'll stall soon ... you might be lucky and not have it happen, but it's really common. If so, the tape measure will show progress when the scale doesn't ... If/when the stall happens remember that it's normal and will pass.

Just keep up the great work.

Enjoy your wonderful start to the journey of lifetime!

That is awesome Jamie!  Please do what Barb says about measuring as I wish I would have.   I lost 14lbs in the 2 week preop and then 17 lbs in the 17 days following surgery.  It has now been 4 days and the dang scale won't budge.  If i would have taken my measurements, I may have seen inches coming off. Take care and keep up the great work!
