I have given up alcohol completely as its empty calories. The aim of the sleeve is weight loss and drinking wont help. It all depends on how serious you are about loosing weight. That's just my opinion but I really don't think you should be drinking that much so soon after surgery regardless of what it is. Good luck with the weight loss.

I'm suffering with a sickness bug and I feel drained ! I've put myself on fluids only today and I think tomorrow too. My poor stomach has been through enough !!

I was 322 lb when I started and I'm now 238 lb

Thank you all so much x

Thank you

Wow that's fantastic. It makes me hopeful I've lost 6 stone in 4.5 months so I too would like to have lost ten stone in 10 months ! Well done you

Thank you. I am !

These jeans fit me before my op on 15th march. Intact I wore them to go into hospital !! I'm now 6 stone lighter (84 lb for my American friends). I feel so much better I'm happy happy. Still want to loose another 5 stone but hey I'm sure I will. I love my sleeve

Been to the hospital for my appointment today. Im eating well and feeling really well. The best is I've now list 38.6% of my excess body weight and my bmi has gone down from 54 to 42 !!!! I'm amazed at this. I'm so happy

I will post more in another 12 weeks !! I love looking back but it does upset me that I got so big.

I'm sure you will. It's not a magic wand it's still hard work but I love it !!

This is a pic a month before surgery and the other was taken today 12 weeks post op. 5 stone down and an amazing difference

It's very natural to regret it so soon after without complications but if you have had some that much amplify the feelings. It does get better and life gets easier. Stick with it and don't be so hard on yourself. You need to rest and drink /eat what you can when you can until your body heals. Good luck and I hope you are better soon x

I'm so happy. I have not only lost loads of weight but I've lost 6 inches from my hips and 6 inches from my waist. I love going walking now and taking my young kids to the park. Life is fantastic !

I had a bit of fried rice and curry from the Chinese on Saturday and oh my gosh I was in pain. Has anyone else had this. Or does anyone know what it was so I can keep away. Thanks x Sent from my iPhone using VST

I'm also on a slow week so it must be normal. Never compare as every has different starting weights and all different sizes ages etc. the main thing is we are all working at it and have a common end goal. To be thinner !!!! Well done you and good luck for the future x Sent from my iPhone using VST

I was thinking of going back to liquids. May give it a go. Good luck to you x Sent from my iPhone using VST

I'm now 8 weeks post op and after a brilliant start my weight has stayed the same for a week. I've list 55lb now but it's just stopped coming off. I'm so upset and wondered has anyone else had this problem and how do I kick start it again. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using VST

Don't be nervous. I was home within 24 hrs and felt great. It will change your life and I think is the best thing I've ever done ! Good luck with it Sent from my iPhone using VST
