Today I went for my first follow up appointment at my surgeon's office. I got on the scale today and almost thought it was broken! I have been trying for months and months to get under 300 pounds and just like that...10 days post op I'm 284!!! I was just 322 less than a month ago! I'm so excited and completely amazed. This is definitely why I had surgery, but I had no expectation that it would come off this fast at first! So I'm 37 pounds down! 21 pounds lost during the 2 week pre-op and 15 since surgery day...10 flipping days ago! I know it will slow down, but to be only 10 days post op and to finally have said goodbye to the 300s is such a blessing. I am thankful that I made this decision and I am excited to see what's next for me!

Happy losing everyone!!

Such an awesome feeling, I was like that entering my 270s, 260s, 250s etc... but then it started slowing and took forever to get out of them numbers. Finally in the 100's now which is nice but still a long way to go. Over a month now stuck in a stall grrrr.
