Yep, feels great' doesn't it?
After a decade of buying clothes online, tailor made or stretchy track suits, the feeling of pointing at anything in any shop and it fits is still overwhelming. The...

Hi there!
All are legitimate concerns. It won't be easy, and your relationship with food will change forever. But this time you will be wearing the pants it this relationship and they will be...

Almost 9 months out, I lost more than ever believed possible- 60 kg.(130 lbs.). While I would be happy to stop now, I don't complain-ALL my health issues are GONE. High blood pressure, diabetes,...

I just listen to the news. Nothing motivates me to punch harder at boxing then hearing a politician talking.

Ladies, don't want to get involved, just wanted to say how much I admire the resilience and persistence of women. It seems unfair that even nature discriminates against them by making everything so...

Beautiful dogs. Here pitbulls are illegal because of some irresponsible owners and subsequent public backlash.
Would love to have to keep company to my Dogue de Bordeaux (and maybe teach her some...

Caffeine is a stimulant, but itself doesn't make you hungry. In fact I was given coffee as my first drink after my surgery. Caffeine (and chilli) kick start your metabolism and that can help. I drink...

I regret not doing this years ago. I don't miss being type 2 diabetic, out of breath all the time and waddle with swollen feet at the end of a work day. I don't miss food because I eat when I'm...

Yep, me. I do feel hungry but get full quickly or just nauseous so I end up losing, slowly but still losing. That dose not happen to everyone, in fact some gain some back. I just monitor my weight...

I think that is pretty much covered. I couldn't/didn't feel like using anything I brought with me, especially since the hospital didn't have wi-fi connection. I thought that would be included in the...

The truth is that humans are not meant to eat meat. It's tasty and full of iron but has it's dark side. Our guts are long like all herbivores, and endless researches have showed the correlation...

Good luck ! Do what I did exactly six months ago, leaving my house for the hospital: look at the mirror and say goodbye to the person you see there. Sounds silly but it gave me strength.

I'm two days short of 6 months since the surgery and I can say I STILL feel nausea and even vomit every now and then, especially after eating soft gluggy foods like pasta or rice. I was vey depressed...

Had my first drink 5 months post-op and all my friends, hearing scary stories about alcohol and sleevers,were waiting to see what will happen to me, as if I was going to turn into a werewolf or...

Hi Becky, I had my sleeve done 12 days before yours and must say that I'm more than happy to stop losing weight all together. However, it's important to know that everyone is different and that...

Good to know I'm not the only pop corn junkie. I can't get enough of it, and my house constantly smells like a cinema's canteen.

Pizza,cakes,nachos,beer,chips.......... Heloooooo ! People are trying to lose weight here. You guys make me drool on my new iPad.
Let's start again. Cabbage, parsley,...

Before- Bottomless pit.
After- Brad Pitt.

Just checked mine. Mr. Slinky still wearing his ear muffs.

You must be on silly pills, mate. Arguing with the wife?
Maybe you should try instead: chicky babe, foxy lady or simply
hot Sheila. She's sure to love it.

Enjoy. I do because since the surgery there is no more diets and the freedom to eat without fear of gaining weight. While before you had only guilt being the result of over indulging and subsequent...

Customer: "what's happened to the guy that used to run this place?"
Me: it's me, I've just lost some weight.
Customer: " you don't have to lie ! just say you bought the business!"
Me: ok, I bought...

Should have done the same, but instead it's like I wanted to forget the old me, didn't take any photos for months and even put all my old clothing in a charity bin, so I can't even have one of those...

Must admit I'm not very religious, but still thank God for looking after me during the surgery ( spent a day in intensive care after being sleeved ), and always ask him to protect my kids. Also,...
