    I'm a newbie with my new gastric sleeve!

    You are doing great. I felt much much better week 3. More energy and virtually no pain. Swallowing tablets much easier now.

    Hi there I had surgery on the 24th June so we are newbies together. Congratulations on your success . It's amazing isn't it to get results . I've lost 17lbs since my pre op diet and I'm thrilled. I'm in the uk and have gone from a size 20 to an 18. I've been very tired on the second week but have Alitalia more energy this week and less pain. The eating is going well and I'm rarely hungry. How about you?
  5. Hi👋🏻 JC . I'm having my sleeve soon. Got my pre op next week. I've done lots of research over the time I've been waiting. With the hair loss it's down to the hormone changes we go through after removal of most of the stomache that from month 3 people notice some hair loss. This stops usually at about 12 months to 18 months when your hormones regulate themselves better. I too have fine hair and although not a deal breaker I was concerned . I've read that expensive suppliments will not alter the hormonal changes . It's viral though to get your daily chewable vitamins in without fail and protein requirements. Take heart that the hair loss as a result of surgery are temporary and the benefits huge. I love a drink on the weekends and have learnt from others that you may be able to enjoy a small drink but it will affect you faster than before surgery so take it very careful and the overwhelming message is do not drive😅. Im going to try and have the mindset to avoid alcohol for as long as possible and enjoy the weight loss . That's the plan 😉 All the very best on your journey to a healthier you X

    First surgeon consultation time scale

    Hi Leanne , I'm in Nottinghamshire and had my first consultation with my surgeon at the end of April. Yesterday I got my date for my pre op appointment which is in 9 days 👏🏻. I just can't believe I've been given this opportunity and am so excited. It's good to be able to share experiences with others in the Uk . xlisax
