Thanks all, well weigh in day today and i am 299!! So pleased. I am unfortunately not feeling any benefit health or energy wise, although don't expect to as i have disabilities. But great to be...

Hi all, hope everyone is doing well.
I am getting excited that I'm nearing the 200's. I have lost 57Ibs in 16 weeks, this includes 3 weeks pre op diet. I am so happy to have hit just over 4 stone,...

Wow, what an amazing feeling that must be. Well done!

Hi sally,

My heartburn definitely got better. I had it most days for the first month. Hardly get it now, if i do don't need to take anything for it.
I find it keeps at bay as long as i don't bend...

Yes i usually order a starter when we eat out or a side dish.
Very much depends what there is on offer though.
Last night i was supposed to be eating smoked chicken but it was too dry for me to eat...

Hi sally, I'm doing really well thanks. Went out gor dinner yesterday and just had some food from my families plates. There wasn't really anything suitable that i could eat, so i ended up having some...

Well done, you have done so well!

I'm lucky that my cholesterol is low, so no problems there. I still don't know why i had a stall but the next 2 weigh ins have been great. I lost 3.8Ibs followed by 5.5Ibs at last Monday's weigh in....

Great result, well done!

I think you are incredibly brave to post such a personal post about your struggles. It is so hard to admit help might be needed again. I know you will do brilliantly because by posting on here you...

Hi,
It is scary as it's such a permanent change of lifestyle. I had an initial difficult recovery and even after that have no regrets. Like loads of people on here i wish i had done it years ago!...

So, just to update after my stall i have since seen my dietician, who is really pleased with my progress and how I'm doing food wise. She is happy with everything i have been eating but recommended...

Good luck next week, hope all goes well.

Great you're doing so well x

I've bought the plain cottage cheese but actually i think i would definitely like one with chives better. So if this one isn't nice iwill buy a different one.
I tried loads of different protein...

Thanks kiwigal, i have been having an egg most days. Also going to be having lots of fish this week. I've bought salmon, king prawns and yellow fin sole. I've bought some cottage cheese to try too,...

Thanks Annie,

I have had the baked beans a couple of times during the pureed stage but its only 1/4 cup. Definitely having more meat than ever before. Today's dinner will be roast chicken,...

Just watched it, thanks for recommending it. Glad i swapped the beans to Turkey now. Dropped calories though to 485 but protein upped to 45!! So pleased.
I really dislike protein shakes, I've tried...

Thanks, I'll check it out

Just switched the baked beans to some more turkey ��

I am eating the protein first then veg then carbs. Annie, what am i eating that are refined carbs? Thanks

Thanks Annie, happy for everyone to give opinions. I see my nutritionist next Friday so will show her my menus.
I have baked beans only once a week so usually it would be carrotts or cauliflower...

I thought at yhis stage it was meant to be between 300 and 600 calories a day?? Sure i read that somewhere or someone told me.
How can eating more calories a day make me loose more? I could add a...

Hi everyone,

I had my sleeve on December 12th. I lost 19Ib doing the 3 week pre op diet. Since then i was loosing about 4-5Ib a week, which i was really happy with. But now it is not coming off...

Thanks both for the replies. I will see how i go with it once I'm further down the line. It would be a small cup so i would be happy to try it as long as it doesn't make me sick. I don't drink much...
