Here it is, 5 months since I started this whole Lapland process. On March 11th I started my pre-surgical diet, clear liquids, leading into my surgery that Friday March 16th. I lost about 15lbs that week! After the surgery I had 90 days of diet and restricted activities and I lost an additional 30lbs. My wife and I had an opportunity to go to Europe for 8 days, so I pushed off my first adjustment till I got back. Here it is 3 months later and I am down 70lbs total! I am 30lbs short of my goal, but I am well on my way...
