2Nd Weigh In

[mas79 15]

Went yesterday for my 2nd weigh in and in just about 7 weeks I've lost 17 more pounds. I now have lost 35 lbs total since May 10th. I also got my second fill. Yay!!! Hoping for another 17 before next weigh in!

Wow that's awesome! I go in for my first fill tomorrow and I'm really hoping it will help me start losing. Not letting myself get discouraged but I haven't lost anything in the last two weeks - they said I probably wouldn't and I haven't gone up at all (knock on wood) but it had been nice to see the scale move both pre and post op so it's been a bit of a downer... also being hungry all the time hasn't helped so hopefully the fill helps with both. Congrats to you!!!

Thanks everyone. Don't get discouraged you still have a lot of swelling for at least 8-12 weeks. Once you get your fill it will help a lot. But, it still requires work on our part. I use myfitnesspal faithfully to track all food and exercise. It has really helped me. Good luck to all.

Mas79 fitness pal app is a wonderful tool. I go for my 1 week post op tomorrow and am hoping the scale has good results. According to pre-op on my scale at home and today it is 18 pounds. Keep up the good work and much success. Looking forward to the next stage of this journey to more than Clear Liquids. Yippee baby food, never thought I would be so happy for baby food. Bought my sippy cup tonight. My husband wanted to know when the diapers were coming.

Nitecap0046 Lol tell your husband you are doing this to prevent the diapers from coming too early! I actually looked forward to baby food until I got there then decided the taste was ugh! I quickly opted for regular food puréed in my Magic Bullet and flavored with my spices and it was much better. Good luck!
