So i'm 2 months out, and down 58 lbs.  Haven't done measurements yet, and the only place i notice it is in my face- i have turkey chin happening already :(  I can eat anything i want and can eat pretty large portions which is giving me anxiety already but sticking to protein.  Hoping to see more results myself soon but pretty happy :)

YEAH!  It is hard to notice the change in a major way at 2 months, but I am sure your body (knees, hips, back, etc...) feels the difference 58# makes. And, 58# -- GREAT progress!! At 2 months, I was only noticing it in my face, fingers, and feet.  Kind of a let down.  Now at 4 months, and losing much slower, I feel like I am melting away!  You'll get there very soon.

That's excellent, Melly!  I lost from the top-down, too.

Thanks everyone!!  I appreciate the feedback and support from everyone on this site!! Question about my capacity- I've asked my surgeon's office and they tell me not to worry cause my tummy can't really have stretched at 2 months, but why can I eat so much food?  I read other ppl's posts where they eat tablespoons of food and it freaks me out that i eat a lot!!  I stick to protein but shouldn't i be worried?? And is there a plastic surgery to fix turkey chin?!  I think this is the worst thing i could imagine post op :(
