Hello are they fellow Irish sleevers out there pre or post op

thank you so much for sharing,

I got from my mam all of that and remember your the one that is doing this to yourself so don't come crying to me and expect me to pick up all the pieces when it goes wrong, Mums we still love them x

Im waiting I wont be having my op till june im almost 14yrs diabetic with insulin im over 20 yrs diabetic

im starting on the milk diet on Monday and they are hoping by 2 weeks il be off my insulin and reducing my tabs this has been my main focus and this is the bigger picture for me rather than been slim, yes I want to be healthy but getting rid of the insulin is my main goal, il let you know how im doing after a week on the diet, xx

I was telling a very good friend this morning and she started with her negativity and I said stop there, have you gone through the op have you spoken to a consultant or surgeon, have you researched it, which she had not so I said until you do please keep your negativity to yourself, She started to argue and this guy we both knew passed and said I looked great and said to my friend she should take my diet and do it, lol lol

for the 3mts I was making up my mind I told no one, once I knew this is what I want I told my partner and 2 sets of very close friends, I only told my family before christmas but that was because we were told I would be having the op in January, with all the delays going on I wont be having it till June, I now wish I didnt tell them all as they keep asking when is it or you wont go through with it, i was stronger when no one knew,

hi im not far behind you in 49 this year like you im having the sleeve because of my health the same as yours, im still waiting for my date for my op but doing all the test at the moment,

im an astmatic so im an asthmatic so id ne just worried they will say no to the operation

thanks for the best laugh ive had in ages i hope they might do a bit ot reshaping them while im out xx

well done your on the road to your new life xx

hi ladies im looking for friends on my fitness pal also my name is mdaffy1 on it

you have to have it done here before your operation im having my test next week im dreading it

good luck were all here for you xxx

not sure yet as I start the weight loss program on the 28th im still waiting on 2 other test im beginning to love myself and that was a hard hard step to do, were all here to help one another xx

firstly well done you, secondly tell your hubby NO IS NO, my partner wasent in agreement to me having this operation as he said I will fail, I MADE him watch every program on telly about the surgery and what changes is going to happen in my life, for christmas I asked him to buy me this plate and bowl I wanted, yes I could have used a side plate that I already have but this is my new beginning so he got them for me, This morning Im giving away every tin of biscuits & chocolates I got also, on the 28th I start my intense weight loss program some of my friends have said il fail and I know I would but for the fact my partner is now standing with me on this, he has such a sweet tooth he could have a box of chocolates instead of a dinner, but his choice not mine he said he will have the same meals im having. ask you hubby just to ease off that the whole reason you did this operation was to get back to good health and as much as you love the candy and popcorn you love your health more, sorry for going on xx

its a small price to pay for a new healthy life, youve made the right choice

congrats and from someone sitting on the waiting to go bench your story is very inspiring to hear that it went so well for you xx enjoy your new path and the journey your on from here on in xx

best of luck to you both,

well done and congrats

one of the first things I was told were the risks, the one risk they never spoke about was that without this operation il die, in the 1996 my mam had a quadruple heart bypass she ended up with open wounds that took over 3 mts to heal but without the op she would have died, it was a major risk as she was over weight, my mam was given to a second chance all those yrs ago now is my chance risks and all im taking it, but you have shown you and your sister are very close to come on here and voice your concerns, hope you dont get too down hearted over the replies as every one has a right to give their view even do we might not agree with it x

well done very inspiring for the ones like myself sitting on the waiting couch

congrats and well done, yes it pays off to keep ringing them

I was like that yesterday and they were only ringing me to say i was been called in to start the weight loss diet so congrats and well done

im a diabetic and yes for carbs brown rice is good even better is the wild brown rice
