I have lost about 17 pounds in the 2 weeks since my surgery. I was a bit disappointed that I haven't really been able to SEE the weightloss, nor have I noticed it in any of my clothes. I read on here someone talked about losing 16 pounds and being able to put clothes into their "too big" section.

I don't have one of those sections in my closet and so far none of my clothes want to make the plunge into being the first in that section.

So, yeah, I was a bit disappointed. Until I looked at myself in the mirror today (really looked)...and realized that my face is a bit skinnier. And a ring that I originally bought to wear on my middle finger but has been being worn on my ring finger, right hand....now fits in it's originally intended spot. And my engagement ring...forget about it. It's waaaaayyy to big for my finger.

Sure, I miss wearing it, I'm gonna go get one of those ring guards, but it's nice to actually NOTICE the weight loss.

I have my 2 week post-op appointment tomorrow and I get to start eating pureed foods. So excited about that, since I miss eating hot foods. I'm tired of popcicles and cold shakes.

non-weight stuff: I'm done with Christmas shopping! Wheeeeee!

Congratz on your 16 pounds that is great.
