The weight will come off...trust me. I wasn't able to weigh myself for the first month after my surgery...due to an obstruction, having to have a 2nd surgery, and then having pneumonia, I spent a lot of time in the hospital. So, I never went through the scale watching..until I was already a couple months out..and by then, I'd dropped 30 pounds or so. I totally missed the 220's, 210's, and 200's! I still weigh in every Friday, and I record it...but I don't obsess about it. I know if I eat right and exercise a bit...the weight will come off. I have lost 10 pounds in the last 10 weeks, which isn't much, but still, the scale is going the right way! Please don't stress, that weight will be off before you know it, and you will be a happy girl! I lived on chili and refried beans early on! It was great! I loved saltines and tuna also. Oh, did I mention my goldfish cracker addiction? Yes, I have them...a lot! I've always had carbs..not a ton..but enough. I'm sure it's why I am losing slower than some, but I don't feel right if I cut carbs too much! I get all lightheaded and weird! Take care...and please don't worry..this surgery will work for you!
