18 More Pounds, Gone Forever

Way to go, dude (as my brother would say).  Whenever he comes back to visit from CA, he likes to make fun of me. Wow, in six short weeks you have almost lost as much as I have in 5 months!  Congratulations.

WOW what a loser!!! WTG Dan! Can you believe it, 63 lbs in 6 weeks?? It does seem surreal, doesn't it? . And you are not even on a diet! That is the best part for me... - Anna

Congratulations Dan!  I'm sure your family is really proud of you also!  I can't wait till I'm further along in my journey and can say I've lost 63 lbs since surgery!  What types of food are you eating now, I'm still in the mushies?

Hey Dan!!! That is sooo awesome.  I am so happy for you!!  Keep up the good work. HUGS, Dionne

@ Liz - I am eating a lot of chicken.  Last night was a grilled chicken patty on my George Foreman grill and some broccoli & cheese.  Lunch was 2 of those Delimax taquitos.  Breakfast was 3 of those mircowaveable bacon strips.  And i had a "snack" of about 3 spoonfuls of cottage cheese last night around 9ish.  I am drinking water like a madman too, yesterday I drank 8 Dasani bottles!!  But to fully answer you, I have been eating eggs, cottage cheese, string cheese (I love pepper jack), Armour pepperoni (I eat about 10-15 slices with a string or two of cheese for lunch), mashed potatoes, green beans, I have had one hamburger patty so far, and have had a few fat free skinless smoked sausages so far.  Tonight I am going to try some fish and see how i handle it.

That's one of the myriad reasons that guys have it better. You lose it faster! That's fantastic, Dan! I'm so happy for ya!

Congrats Dan.  I am so happy for you.  I know what mean by feeling better.  I have only lost 40 pounds, but I already feel so much better and have more energy.  That is the whole reason i had the sleeve to begin with. Congrats.

You are almost 2 full weeks behind me and you have lost 40 already?  That is AWESOME girl.  You are doing great too.

And you know what you are only going to feel better and better.  It is so much fun watching your success, you know whats next my dear.................oh yeah! AB :)

Keep up the good work and lets see some new pics of you!!  HEY, A girlfriend???  I havent seen any posts on here about your new love interest... Spill  it and tell all!!!!!!!
