I had my surgery on July 1st and have only lost 8 lbs (appros). Am I eating too much. I'm on pureed right now. I have my 3 week post op on Thurs. Will doc be disappointed with this amount of weight loss?

I doubt it would be possible to eat too much right now.  How much are you eating?  Are you following your doctor's meal plan?

My weight loss was slower in the beginning, and then there were some weeks it really picked up.  I think as long as you're honestly doing what you're supposed to be doing, the weight loss will take care of itself.  I didn't weight myself that often, as I was trying to stop the behaviors that I was enslaved to beforehand.  Try to relax and just trust that it will work for you as long as you follow your doctor's plan.
