LMBTX 13 Posted August 22, 2013 Hi. I just joined this site and have enjoyed reading all of the stories and being encouraged by knowing that I am not alone. I had my surgery August 8, 2013 and am 2 weeks post-op. I am starting soft foods and am ready to be done with the liquid diet. I have a fear that I will be the patient that doesn't lose a lot of weight.....but so far I am down 23 lbs since August 1, 2013. 2 vinniej3 and TwinsMama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TwinsMama 483 Posted August 22, 2013 Don't worry about comparing yourself to others or worry you won't lose. Your body is already showing you, that you can lose. Enjoy your journey and work on all the "head" stuff. Congrats on your sleeve and 23 lbs! 1 LMBTX reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
