  2. View Conversation
    Its been a while how r u doing. Have you been pleased with your progress or had any problems. I am almost at my goal now just a few pounds to go but its been very slow over the last month or so. I still eat to fast alot of the time and have been sick the odd time but if I stick to what I know I should do im fine.
    hope your well

    Hi Debbie, good to hear from you. I could not find you on FB for some reason, try me as Barbara Bevan and we can chat. How is the weight loss going I read you were going to the docs to see if you are eating right. I really need to hit the gym to continue to loss and as yet can't get the umph to go!

    DI have got all the family coming for dinner today which will not be a problem other than only having one roast potatoe! This week has not been too bad and this mornings weekly weigh in showed a two kilo loss which makes up for last weeks one! Only 5 lbs to go to the 20 stone mark so I am excited, hopefully by the end of the month I will be under this number. hope alls going well with you.x

    Hi Debbie,
    i had my sleeve in Macclesfield on the 14th January just had my first full week back in work and feeling a little tired today but on the whole the op went well not had any pain yet (fingers crossed) on to my puree food this week and next would love some advise on diet going forward if anyone has any. Lost 21lb in the 12 days before the op and not sure since not weighed myself, next appt 21st Feb so will update then but i do get hungry something i thought would not happen! maybe its just in my mind lol. i am struggling to drink fluids and can only do about a ltr and half Look forward to hearing from you and other members of the group! Lorna x

    Hi Deb, I left a message with some one of your name living in Manchester, the photo looked like a chap climbing a wall - obviously not you! i will look later to see if you have changed your photo. Failing that I will leave you me address. Cheers!

    Hi Deb I am on FB and have sent a message to you I believe in Manchester? I have not told anyone other than my hubby and daughter about the op so if we could keep it to just messaging that would be ok. Look forward to chatting to you. I have just realised the first of these messages I sent to myself!!!!!!!!!! x

    Hi Debbie how are you? My weight loss seems to have settled at 2 lbs a week which I am happy with as the alternative is not good! I have realised I have 10 lbs to lose before I have 100 lbs to go!!!!!!! So roll on the 10 lb loss! I am starting to nibble a bit which I will have to get under control and am determined to make the most of this op and conquerer this problem once and for all.

    Debbie I am also able to eat what ever I want now but probably the same as you but in much smaller quantities. So I try to make sure I eat the protein parts of the meal first, I am taking the Whey protein once daily to make sure I am getting enough. I tend to think that as I can only get so much food in I had better make sure it is "good food" sometimes I do add some naughty things during the day but not much! My doc said only two table spoons of protein, meats etc, and two of veg or rice what ever to go with it is a good guideline even though I can't always eat that much. It is a struggle to know what to eat and that is part of the process I guess. Eggs I don't eat often as I find them very heavy to eat if that makes sense. White rice I have eaten, I know it should have been brown, and found that hard to digest.
    I know what you are saying and I do worry that this is not working even though I am losing weight on average of 2 -3 lbs a week which tells me alls well, perhaps I thought it would go faster. However the scales are showing weight loss and not gain so that is the thing to remember. Think positive everyone is eating but not in the same way as before!

    Morning Debbie just passing on the protein drink I buy in case you are interested. "Whey to go" gives you 20 grams of protein in each serving using up 127 calories. It comes in a power form which can be mixed with water or milk, i use water with the chocolate version and it if ok. I also take one of Bassetts "Soft and Chewy" everyday multivitamins so I know I am getting the daily amount of whatever whilst I am finding out what suits me at this stage of the sleeve journey. Although the doc says that eating normally will supply all the protein and vitamins I need I just want to be sure, I don't know how long I will continue as I am on my seventh week post op now.
    I just read on the site that kangaroo meat is full of protein but kangaroos have not been seen recently in Wales!!!!!!!!

    It's just a way to copy a link. To directly link to a post on the site. Like if you want to share a link to something with someone else, you might want to share the permalink to get them to the exact spot you are talking about.

    I track my food at Free Calorie Counter, Diet & Exercise Journal | MyFitnessPal.com they have a huge database and it helps keep track of protein (which is really why I'm using it-I want to make sure I get 50-60/day)
