Met with my nutritionist today and he was very happy with my results. I've lost 22% of my excess body weight. OH, and he told me to quit stepping on the scale daily. Maybe I can try weekly but it's been a very hard thing to give up.  I am fully released to eat what I can tolerate, avoid raw veggies still, and exercise all I want.  Life is  Good!!!  Lake time this weekend too.

Wonderful news! Looking back on your first six weeks, any AHA moments for us newbies?

You're 4 weeks ahead of me and it feels so far away...

It does feel so far away and all I can say is take it one day at a time.  Advance slowly and make smart choices.  Hydrate.  I honetly can't say that I've been truly hungry since surgery.  Eating is more of a chore now.  I just forget to eat and, of course, that has never happened before.

Awesome...I too decided to give up the scale on a daily basis it's just too much. I now have a weigh in day of the week and follow that plan, it works and I stress less.

 

Have a great time at the lake!
