I am so excited because I am now on soft foods aaaand since surgery two weeks ago I have lost 23 pounds. I have a lot of smile about right now.

Congrats! Glad everything is going so well for you! Monique D.

WTG It only gets better from here! Tammy

WAY TO GO! Keep up the good work! Stacey

HI! So glad you are doing well! I was advanced to soft foods, too. Isn't it great? I have lost 13.5 pounds in two weeks, which is great for my size (right now Im 221.5). How is your fitness routine? I was finally able to walk a mile today with no pain! yahoo!

Yay! congrats to you, I was about the same. This third week has slowed down a bit, but as long as I lose just 2 pounds a week I'll make my goal in a year. I know I'll do better than that though! Amber

I had to put my scale away for this third week- I hit a stall much sooner than I expected and I think my body is trying to figure out my time of month cycle as well! I was one of those poor ladies who had their surgery trigger a menstrual cycle. I started mine the second day in the hospital and I had just had one two weeks before. Since I also kicked up the exercise routine, started eatin soft foods, am no longer taking birth control pills.... I guess its no surprise it doesn't want to work with me right now.

I'm with ya, sista! I got my period about a week before the surgery and it came back with a vengence as soon as I got to my ROOM! That was so not fun. It was a very humbling experience. I had to let the nurses help me with things I never thought I would! Being 3 weeks out, I think my body is doing the same thing. I'm feeling very crampy today. I can't get back on BC pills for a another month, I guess. I just got on them one month before the surgery! My GYN was very adamant about me getting on them because I just can't get pregnant. I understand his concern, but being on BC could've given me a higher chance of blood clots, HELLO!!! Hang in there, you'll be kicking off again real soon! Amber
