Thank you. I too have had a good recovery, even though it’s only been 4 days. How much have you lost so far?

Good Morning, I went for my 2 month post surgery appt. with the Surgeon last Monday and so far on his scale I lost 28 lbs. I know that I lost a few more pounds by my scale, but for now am counting his appts as "official". See my results on my tickler below. My surgery was delayed due to the Hospital cancelling all elective surgeries, due to Covid virus. This was in March and I had already completed 6 days of my pre surgery diet. I didn't realize, at the time, how terrible and deadly this virus was and how long it would last so I tried to eat healthy in case I was called right away. I ended up having my surgery on August 17th. I really stuck with the program and had an easy recovery. I now can have anything (almost) and have been trying something new almost every day. I still have weight to lose, so I haven't introduced sweets back into my diet. I'm lucky because I don't have any desire for them. Just stay with your program and I'm sure that you'll do fine. Don't forget to drink (sips_ , if eating, do it slowly and chew, chew, chew, and follow your program, it really does work.
