I agree with Gina, but I also agree that 35 lbs in 2 months is just awesome!  At 2 months I was at 29... 20 the first month and 9 the 2nd...

Don't compare yourself to the heavier weights - while we love to see the numbers on the scale move, we need to look at the percentage of weight loss too. 

You're doing just awesome!  Consistent is wonderful!

You are doing great.  Traveling is hard for all of us at any stage.  Adding that scoop of protein is a great idea.   I don't think you can get too much.

Don't get rid of it yet.  I had some unflavored protein powder for a long time that I didn't care for and one day I was looking for something to add to a cup of sugar free pudding and the protein powder worked perfectly with it and now I can have some pudding with extra protein.

Great Job!!! A turtle...crap then I am a slug..or maybe I am still standing still.  Had my revision very close to your surgery....and well last time I got on the scale I was so disappointed I haven't been back on...honest.  It was weeks ago....and I know my body is changing...but I am scared of the scale...I had lost about 20 pounds...so pad ur self on the shoulder...you are so working your tool.  No banana..completely agree so many other fruits that are better.  I hate my dietitian for the same reason..strong wind would blow her away.
