Are you nine weeks post op and started at approximately 275?

I am just curious about others who has surgery around 06/03/04 and started at a weight of approximately 275 with a 41 bmi. I had surgery on the above mentioned date and I have lost 41 lbs since surgery. Sometimes I feel I am losing slowly, but then I see I am averaging about 5 lbs a week, so I feel I am on track, but when I read others profiles it seems they have lost more. I also hear people say that are not hungry. Boy, do I wish. I eat 3-4 meals a day. For example, I had 3 slices of turkey bacon for breakfast. I ate out for lunch today which isnt routine for me, but I went to a Chinese restaurant and ordered small order order of sauteed shrimp, chicken and chinese vegetables. I ate half the order and I didnt touch the white rice. The was no eggroll. I had 1/2 cup of Nectar protein and for dinner I will probably have sauteed chicken breast with salsa and another 1/2 cup of nectar late this evening. I sip on cold water all day long and occassionally I drink , Sugar Free Diet Snapple, Crystal Lite, or Fruit20,but most often I drink water. I sometimes feel like I eat alot at dinner, but my husband watches me eat and he says its in all in my head. He says he can see that I eat way less that I used to eat and that I make better choices. Yesterday I ate a piece of cheese for breakfast, salad w/ italian dressing for lunch with 2 chicken wings and for dinner I had chicken and salsa on a fried parmesan cheese taco shell. What do you think. I don't weigh my food. I just eat til I feel satisfied. I can tell if I am overeating because it would feel like one more bit and I will vomit or the smell of food will get me quesy and then I will stop immediately. I am just curious as to what others eat and how much you have lost. --Thank you
