I'm amazed that I feel as good as I do. I've really been following the post op diet to a T. No pain, no fatigue, I do get a little winded when I go out for my twice daily walks, but each day gets a little easier. Today is one week since my surgery and I guess there was a part of me that was waiting for the horrible part of this to begin. 

What I guess I knew deep down was my addiction to food wasn't going to go away and wishing that I could eat whatever I wanted would still be there.  This is a fresh start, reset button and I'm going to embrace all this new tool has to offer.

Thanks for lisitening!!!!!

I too have been waiting for the other shoe to drop,  I am 5 weeks our and feel terrific!  I still count calories and am eating between 500 and 600 a day.  I work full time and have had plenty of energy  The only time I feel tired is when I excercise.  Understandable given the amount of food I am eating.  So  I just take it slow.  I hope you took your measuerments1 as well as track your weight.  I have found that although I have only lost 25 pounds so far I Have lost 4 inches off my hips and waist and two inches of my thighs and arms.  Best of all I lost an inch and a half off my neck.  My face is starting to look really good!  I had a plateau at about three weeks and stopped loosing for abut 10 days.  Thats when a friend told me to check the inches!  I am so glad I did because it really helped me get over the hump,  Make sure you get your 64 grams of protien each day.  Im still doing the shakes even though I can eat real food I am more comfortable with the shakes at work.

Thanks for your post and congratulations of the beginning of a wonderful new life
