1 Month
Can't believe its already been a month (on the 16th) since surgery!
I am on soft foods now, and it seems to be going well. I am still never hungry, and force myself to eat. Still finding it difficult to get in all my protein. Today I weighed in at 207.6lbs - sooooo close to Onederland!!!! My weight on May. 2 was 235.5 - I have lost a total of 27.9lbs since Opti-fast and 19lbs since surgery! Feeling pretty good, anxious to workout, but took everyone's advice on my post and will continue some low impact cardio :)

you are doing so well, congrats!
If you don't mind my asking, how often do you weight yourself? and if weekly or more so, did you notice a big difference between weeks 1 and 2? I just finished week 2 and it was SIGNIFICANTLY less of a loss than week 1.

I weighed myself daily for the first few weeks. I noticed about 4lbs-5lbs loss the first couple weeks. Last week I believe was my first stall? (possibly) I went up and stayed the same for the entire week (checked mon - fri and then didn't chec****il Sunday and ended up losing) I think its averaging about 2-3lbs a week, sometimes more or less.
