3 weeks Post Op 24 Pounds Gone!!!
I am so amazed at how the weight is falling off! I stick to the plan mapped out by the doctor, walk every day (either do the same or increase a bit just a little each day). I see a difference in my face and my clothes already too. Because I had a conversion from a vertical banded gastroplasty to the RNY, I was lectured by the PA at my post-op appointment that this was my last chance and I have been dealing with a small bit of "eating" issues as in no wanting to eat (not sure if that is normal or not) but for the most part, feeling pretty good

Congrats on the revision! That horrible VBG was a torture for so many people. It's great you got rid of it.
It sounds like you are doing fantastic. Don't be disappointed when your loss slows -- there's no way you will maintain this rate of loss. But it's a marvelous start.
