Hello All,

Hope everyone had a great weekend.  I am 7 weeks post op today.  I got on the scale and only lost 2.6 lbs from last week which was a little disappointing, but then I realized I am exactly half way to my goal and it only took 12 weeks. 

That was a very exciting realization.  Thought I'd share.

Have a geat day.
Brenda

Thank You,

I don't have any secrets.  I started doing 2 meals protein shakes and only eating dinner 5 weeks presurgery and I did that for 3 weeks.  Two weeks prior to surgery my Dr. puts his patients on a strict liquid diet.  I lost 23 lbs pre surgery.  I'm 2 months out today and have lost 37 more.  I did develop a stricture so I have pretty much only been able to get down liquids for this whole time......not fun.  So I would not wish for one.  Follow your Dr's instructions and you'll do great.  Good Luck with your surgery.
