Today was my one month visit and I got moved up to real food which was a nice thing! I was a little disappointed in my weight loss. I am down 26lbs which is a great thing, but at 2 week mark I lost 21lbs so that is only 5lbs in 2 weeks. People are telling me that they see a difference, so that is a good thing and I do notice that clothes are fitting differently. I know that the weight didnt come on over night so its not going to fall off overnight...it is just a tool not a thing of magic. So just left thinking...am I the average or what...who knows... I hope all is doing well! Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers! Tara

your doing great Tara 26lbs gone yes everyone is different....when you stop losing lbs you should be losing inches...as long as you don't come to a stop you are doing good....don't forget you have to eat to lose weight....so don't cut back on what you eat....and if there where any miracale thing out there wouldn't we all have gotten that... yes you are right this is a tool and we have to work it and you will see the weight will be melting off.. You are doing great so keep up the good work.....keep us posted.. Christine

Tara, I'm one week behind you. I had my surgery almost 3 weeks ago. So far I'm down 20 lbs. I lost 14 like crazy then I stopped and now I've started again. So if I can lose 6 more lbs by my 1 month mark I will be happy. Good luck and I'm sure you are doing fine. Keep up the good work.

Tara Congratulations! You are doing great! Remember that we are all different in our weight losses as well as in our looks, personalities, stress levels. You get the idea. So every pound or inch you lose, that is normal for you. Do not compare yourself to anyone else. Keep up the good work and put that tool to work! Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. {{{{hugs}}}} Brenda

Thanks for the support and encouragement! I know that we are all different and we should not compare, but its really hard not to. I have a friend that had her WLS 2 1/2 weeks before me and we find ourselves comparing details all the time. I also have a couple other friends that are further out that I try to get a lot of info from them also that way I know what to expect in the future. I guess time will be the only thing that will tell what is in store for me...thanks again for the support! keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers! Tara
