Thought I would say hello! Today is my 2week post op date and I've lost 16lb! 16 lbs was previously impossible and I'm feeling great! I knew I had lost but I've been choked up with joyful tears today about how possible it is I can do this!!

Let's stay in touch! I'm trying to " stick with the winners" people with a positive outlook. Not that people always need to be positive!

Welcome & congrats yeah girl... Welcome to the loser bench(when we started slimming down after WLS weight lost surgery) it sure feels great when the weight & fat comes off.

How often did you weigh yourself? I don't want to get obsessive...or depressed if I don't see day to day change.

[ajustice 484]

I have had to force myself not to weigh daily. I tried that the 1st few days I came home and it really was getting to me. I'm mentally only able to do 1x weekly and I'm gonna try to stick to that. It's hard not to be obsessive. I would love to keep in touch with u guys! I feel like alt of positive things have just opened up and I'm finding myself with girlish like happiness as I make all these new steps. I've been reading here for a few weeks and I have to admit before surgery I was a basketcase and just reading things here helped enforce I was making the right decision.

Good advice...glad I found this site too!

yay, welcome girl!

it only gets better from 2 weeks post op, i promise. the first two weeks - def the toughest. i am now at 4 weeks today and i am doing much better.

still struggling with getting my balance right, still tend to eat too fast and little too much and then i suffer!

i was an emotional eater and still tend to want to revert back to it.

so it is a process and a half, but getting better daily, that is just what i want to reassure you about!

welcome!
