Hi ,

I'm 2 1/2 months post op and I continue to be amazed at my weight

loss. I'm short, only 5 ft. tall, and I'm 50 years old. I thought

both of these things would work against me when it came to losing

weight. But, it seems like the more I eat the more I lose. I lost 23

lbs. the first month and I figured it would slow down the second

month because I was on more than just liquids. It has slowed some,

but I've stll lost 45 lbs. and I'm eating just about anything I want

(of course, there are a lot of things I don't want). I wouldn't worry

about the scales. You don't have to diet, just work on eating

healthy, not to lose weight but because it's good for you. Good luck
