That's great - my surgery was 7/12 and I've lost eight pounds - pretty disappointing. However, dieting and exercising before at Weight Watchers (without cheating) only netted nine pounds in ten months. So, eight pounds in a month is better than nothing. I ', worried, though, because I keep being told I'm in a "honeymoon" period and the weight loss will slow down. I try to think of it long term.
