    That's good news kiwijet 30 kgs is an amazing loss I agree 100% I could not have lost the weight I have in 3 months if not for the operation I think for me it was the best decision my health has been so much better I feel alive again I even have trouble sleeping in where as before could happily sleep half the day. I dont have nausea after eating I get the burps and feel uncomfortable if I eat to much Nausea is not pleasant. Keep up the good work kiwijet Sent from my iPhone

    I think I was scared as I've read quite a few people can't eat steak so I waited in the hopes my first experience wouldn't be bad and put me off I've had some bad experiences with certain things it makes it hard to enjoy now I so missed steak how are you doing kiwijet? Sent from my iPhone

    I had steak tonight yas I have waited for this moment for 3 months I went to a food show today and bought some organic free range eye fillet as I wanted my first steak to be enjoyable and tender it was everything I dreamed of and more only downside I couldn't eat much of it but I'm glad it went down ok I do love a good steak.

  6. I have fibromyalgia and rheumatoid my pain levels have been really low I'm not in much discomfort at all compared to pre surgery I'm 3 months out from sleeve surgery I was worried as I did the Cohen's diet a low calorie diet last year and lost weight rapidly and my fibro was so bad I could barley dress myself my biggest concern was surgery would put stress on my body and I'd have a massive flare up but I'm totally fine even stopped one of my rheumatoid drugs.

    Pork Rinds

    I eat pork rinds we have a company here in New Zealand that does free range rinds in an assortment of flavours they are about $8 for one 30 gram packet of rinds so not cheap I went through a stage of eating them almost daily then I noticed they repeat on me for hours. they are nice and crunchy but I have to cut any excess fat off the rind as I can't stomach it.

    Hi kiwijet Thats no good about your tooth nothing worse than a sore tooth you can't escape the pain. I've lost all Interest in food to it doesn't excite me anymore nor do I look forward to eating as the amount is so pathetic it almost seems pointless. I still find the waiting between eating and drinking hard I may never get useto that. Had a meeting with my NUT she's really happy with my results luckily I'm only 11kgs away from goal maintaining will be the biggest thing for me going forward. Do you find kiwijet that you get all your fluids in? Sent from my iPhone

    Congrats kiwijet yay on the house front Regurgitation is not pleasant and it's hard when your eyes want to eat more but your tiny stomach can't handle much I find it makes for a bit of unhappiness not feeling mentally satisfied. I'm lucky I've not been hungry my acid reflux or gerd has been out of control which has seen me avoiding food I've just got some more medication today thank goodness I think il be on them always. Kiwijet the clothes hanging off you is an amazing feeling as sometimes we don't feel physically smaller but the proof is in the clothes especially since you weigh at the clinic not at home. I find the weight loss rewarding even when it's slow so long as the scale is moving in that direction I'm happy. I hope you get the hunger under control do you think it's real hunger? Head hunger or acid possibly are you still on acid medication? Sent from my iPhone

    Belches / Burps?!?!

    Burping for me has become a after every meal event they can go on for up to 2 hours after eating I'm getting really over it I'm almost 9 weeks out it doesn't matter how little I eat I still get them my surgeon said to eat slower it doesn't help. I'm hoping they go away too Sent from my iPhone

    Hi Demonchick no I haven't measured myself yet I keep meaning too though I know I've lost weight but it's from my bottom half which was always smallish anyway haha the top half is huge it just takes time I know I'm the chick that would do a diet for a month then give up as I hadn't lost all my weight in the most impatient person ever that's why I made this decision cause I can't just give up its not reversible haha thank you for your support xoxo Sent from my iPhone

    Kiwijet that's a long drive hopefully the house is what you are looking for have you found it hard being back at work and having to make lunch etc I have found I'm trying new things food wise I'm not eating enough Protein I don't think I'm trying to get it just from food I have the odd Protein Bar but honestly I've wasted so much money on them they are all disgusting ice been waiting 7 days to drop into another weight category I've been walking outside and on my treadmill mostly drinking all my Water I got my partner to take a photo of me yesterday whilst out walking I was disappointed I see the same fat person I was hoping to be excited by what I saw it's amazing to think you can lose a decent amount of weight over 20kgs and notice no difference.
