So, I had a couple of pairs of "fat" jeans that I had gotten too fat to wear, and today, I'm back in my fat jeans!

I've lost 12 pounds since the surgery, 18 total since the pre op diet, and 3 pounds from onederland!!!

Loving my sleeve! :-)

Awesome!!  You're doing great...I've only lost 10 since surgery, so I'm jealous!!

It looks like you don't have as far to go as I do, plus you lost a lot before your surgery! 10 pounds is great too though.  I could have never lost this much weight this quickly and with so little discomfort!  I am literally never hungry. I am still struggling to get in all my water and protein. Yesterday was the first day I got my 40 grams in!  I can't take more than a few sips before my pyloric slams shut! :-)

Keep up the good work!

I haven't had any trouble with protein or water, but it has been an adjustment the last couple of days with "real" food!  What I think is a small portion is not small enough and I'm weighing them!  I like liquids best!!

My surgeon has me on liquids for 21 days, so I'm still 10 days away from starting the pureed stage.  I'm tired of liquids!  So many people get to start on purees sooner than my doc, but he has done over 6,000 of these and he's only had 2 leaks, and they were both from people starting yogurt consistency too soon, he said.  So, I'm going to trust him and keep up with the 21 days of liquids.  At least I can be on purees by the time Thanksgiving rolls around!

I got released to soft foods on Wednesday, but I'm still adjusting/tweaking that!  I prefer the liquids/yogurt right now!

 Yay!  I'm looking forward to getting back into my 'fat jeans' as well, but also don't expect to be in them long! lol
