Hi Julie, my name is Sally and I live in Kent, England. I am 3 weeks post op and everything is going well. If you have any questions I’m happy to help if a I can. Good Luck
Welcome and congratulations Julie! There is lots of information on this site as well as advice that will hopefully help you on your adventure.
Welcome and congratulations on being sleeved! Feel free to ask questions!
Welcome to a wonderful group, and congratulations! Please post often!
You've found the place. Welcome!
Hi and welcome.
Lots of great people here who are happy to offer support and share stories.
Hi and Welcome.
You have found a wonderful site here. Lots of support and good advice. I wish you every success. Looking forward to hearing more from you.
Thanks for introducing yourselves. Two weeks since my op and just started mashed food today. Can I ask how quick your weight came off?
Everyone is different so it can be somewhat misleading to compare yourself with others. Some lose quickly, others at a more steady rate. The important thing to remember is that any loss is a good one :-)
Having said all that I just looked back at my records and in the first 7 weeks post op I lost 20kg, at 10 weeks it was 24kg and at 20 weeks it was 35kg (in total). It took my 15 months to get to the weight I am now.
HI Julie. welcome to this forum and good luck with your journey. Its a great place to get advice and support.
HI Sally, welcome to you as well. Did you get your sleeve privately or NHS? I had mine almost 2 years ago, privately done. This forum is great and has lots of advice. Good luck with your journey.Quote:

Every one is different but in my personal case it was a kilo a day for the first 3werks. Then 2 week's I stayed the same then it started to go off 1 kilo here or there every couple of days then every week then it changed again.
All loss or stalls are part of it.
But it really is so much fun.
