Hey everyone! I got the courage to get on the scale today and i about fainted when i saw I weighed 323 lbs. OMG! i  was 360lbs last week before surgery! That means I have lost 37lbs in a week and a half! I wanna cry. i cant believe im accually losing weight. I see it in my body and can barley wear my clothes and its only been a little over a week. Do you think thats too much weight to lose so soon?

That sounds like a lot...Is it too much? Well as long as you are doing your part to stay hydrated and are taking in enough protein then I think it is fine. I don't know about your particular program but I was told to drink at least 64oz of water a day and take in 40-60g of protein daily...If you are dehydrated you will know it for sure! but if you aren't getting enough protein you might not realize it. I didn't do such a great job with protien early on and I definatly noticed it when I started weight-lifting at 9 week out - I had lost so much lean body mass (muscle) just something to watch for. But it sounds like you are doing great...How are you feeling? I know the first few weeks can be rough - but the rapide early weight-loss certainly makes it feel all worth it - doesn't it? I bet you can't wait to get back down to the city for school with all the improvements you are realizing already!
