Hi thanks for the tip about the up beat protein drinks. You will love Paphos. We went there a couple of years ago and we really enjoyed our time there. Getting jittery but excited waiting for my day. I have been packing my little bag and buying bits and pieces for when I come out. Good luck to us all.

Hi C2 forever, hope you are feeling good today after your op. Please let us know how you are getting on. July 16th is whizzing up for me.

Hi and welcome. I am self funding and I live in Wales. I looked at gastric band about 5 years ago but partner put me off, so now we are both singing from the same hymn sheet as it were, I'm having the sleeve on 16th July. Please feel free to add me as a friend. Chris

Hello there, we are going to Cyprus 2nd September we will be going to the North Turkish side. I ll will be 6 weeks and 5 days then, self catering so no need to worry tooo much about the food! Where abouts are you going? Im worried about the protein shakes after the op, just cant decide what to have. What did you use? Last time I went on the plane the seat belt was so tight around me I thought my circulation would stop! I breathed in every time the hostess went by as I just would have been very embarrassed if I had had to use the extension on the seat belt, that's if monarch even have such a thing! You are doing great keep on with the good work .

What a amazing story, Im having my op July 17th, Ive always been the fat one, the fat child, fat teenager fat bride fat divorcee fat bride again fat mum. Im a grandma now and I don't want to be the fat grandma. After reading your story I feel inspired. Well done

Good luck to you all, let us know how you get on!

Good luck to you both. Its July 16 th for me Big Hugs

Its July 16th for me, scared and happy at the same time! Good luck to us all

You look fantastic, well done indeed

Good luck to you you will do just great X

How marvellous to see the inches coming off as well as the weight. I think I will measure myself the day I go in for my op which is Thursday 16th July. I veer from being excited to being very scared, but its got to be done. Looking forward to doing as well as you

Im in Pembrokeshire West Wales UK

My surgeon also in UK has said not to do the liver shrinking diet. However because I want to give myself a better chance I am going to do 1000 cal diet as best I can for 2 weeks before op which is 16 July. d luck with it anyway Chris

Good luck to you fatsolovesndy, I for one am very glad that I found this forum. You are three days before me as I am due for my op on the 16th July. Good luck to all of us July sleevers

Im July 16th so we are close! I get afraid and excited sometimes in the same hour!

I was looking online today and came across a British web site called www.bariatriccookery.com. It might be of interest to us Brits. Have a little look!

You look perfectly normal ! Just folks being jealous of your great weight loss. How rude of that person to make that comment. Big hugs from UK to you

Mr Hassn is my surgeon. I'm just bothered about the protein shakes and what we eat after the op for the first two weeks, etc. I have read so much and printed off so much info, and of course the USA sleevers have a completely different set up to us in UK

What a fantastic weight loss! Good for you!

Hi Maggie May. Tell me how did you manage for the first 6 weeks. I have bought some items just wondering about slim fast? Hi excited but nervous, when is your date, Im 16th July and counting the days. Im in Wales, up the M4 from you!

Well done! I have my surgery on 16th July and I will be so happy to be on the losers path! Let us know how you get on

Good luck for your op !

My operation will be on 16th July in UK. I am sure we will all do well. Bit scared but excited too. Just been looking in my wardrobe at some small jeans I have not worn for years. Heres hoping they will fit this time next year!

Snap Tinab08 I have the same date! Good luck to all of you USA sleevers from me in UK

Now I have my date! 16th July is sleeve day for me!
