I feel sorry for you. If your boyfriend is this inconsiderate now. How hard will things be when your on the liquid diet.were cheating will risk a leak or extreme damage to your staple? Hmm. A conversation needs to be had for sure because there might be a reason he is subconsciously.. or not subconsciously.. trying to sabotage you. ( Only you will know which one it is. I'm not in the relationship) fear of change. You turning into something more confident and different while he remains the same..you can imagine what insecurities can breed on the back of that. But either way you need support now. And open communication is important.talk to him.

Good luck everyone. I had my sleeve in July but here if anyone needs any extra support.

If you don't start taking responsibility though... Your psych eval might not go as smoothly as you hope. What's your stats

First step is taking responsibility. Went to the gym never lost weight ? Then you were eating to much and not tracking or you wouldn't need this surgery . If you were gyming barely eating still not losing. An investigation would be under way not this surgery as an option. And yeah I'm not judging you my fatness happened And I thought it wouldn't work for me as I was fat despite dieting. The truth is I was eating nothing all day and crap in secret. It's not magic. But I thought it wouldn't work for me. And it is working. Be real with yourself. Realise we are all human make mistakes but we have to be committed. And know what mistakes we make and not blame other things for our weight. I've known people say there fatness is due to all kinds of external factors. Sure.. but the surgery worked for them.. with those external factors still there. Go figure. Good luck.

I mix the tea with cordial. It's not amazing. But okay.

I agree. I never told anyone. Other than my mum. Best thing ever.

If you only go twice a day you need to up your water. I go more than I used to .. now I'm focusing on water intake.

I can understand that. Pissed off. Irritatable. Crying lol. All of it. Now the weight is falling off I don't care what cons I'm dealing with lol

Having this surgery causes alot of anxiety for alot of us. Me being one of them. So I wasn't asking in an offensive way. But I wanted to help you.. if that was the case. We just want to do everything right. So for me alot of 'silly stuff' made me anxious. But it's important we are aware so we don't get carried away. But valid question

Are you dealing with anxiety?

It's Wednesday already were I am. Lol so I'll be a day ahead

Cw 191 Gw 180 After this challenge I'm going to try a two weekly weigh in instead of weekly I feel I need more excitement seeing bigger amounts on the scale. Weekly it's not so... Gratifying as sometimes I've lost nothing lol

If yogurt with strawberries freak you out. Consider eating a yogurt without strawberries?

Just know that the first few weeks you can feel depressed and miserable on the pureed diet. Not everyone experiences this but it's common. You think there is no light at the end of the rainbow.. then you move into normal food phase and your loving it !! No regrets!

Male or female please? 1000 at a month .. I don't know how you manage that lol are you meant to increase the calories as you go or stay at a thousand till maintenance?

How far out please?

Under 600 for a few months. My team said I was doing great. I'm 4 month post I'm still under 800 sometimes still between 500-800 mixed with the odd higher day. weight loss is rapid. And bloods are good. So I'm happy. I'm not low carb either.

So lovely that you have a supportive husband. Don't feel bad for not being able to help because you know youd do the same if the tables were reversed and he needed support . Very sweet. And wow ! No high blood pressure at 300+ amazing mine went straight to malignant hypertension at 220+ I almost lost my sight ended up in the hospital and I couldn't see. Terrible now I'm lighter it's gone. Sorry to hear about the bad surgeon . Gosh two months in hospital what a nightmare. I just spent almost a month there and I could have strangled someone it made me so aggravated those four walls as I was in a side room on my own felt like I was in prison. And good your staying positive that must help

I bet you look amazing !! What a difference from your start weight. You have done amazing. I'm glad what I said make sense. Because I used to hate what I saw in the mirror now I'm like.. hmm not bad lol. Perhaps when we get to goal we will be able to be happy with our body and the scale . But I bet when I get to goal Il dislike my body again due to extra skin lol.

Hey how are you doing ? My hw was 250. 244 when I saw my surgeon and now 4 months that later 190lbs. You have lost alot. But if I'm honest I won't be happy either. But the reality is that is alot of weight loss. So be proud. You say you eat decent. But what is daily eating like. Maybe someone may have suggestions of what you can remove or include to move things along.

Why are you already trying to eat more ? I think you need counselling these surgery are not miracle workers. You need to follow the plan.

Weigh once a week or even once every 2 weeks if you can stand the long weight. Much more satisfying. Much less stressfull. I know people who weigh everyday to get an average. But if gains will worry you don't put yourself through it. The gains balance themselves out and if you weigh less you may miss them. You may have just had a little fluid on-board. Keep going I can't wait to get to 180s! Go girl!

I don't eat fruit often I don't crave it. But will eat it if I fancy. And drink a d Green juice every now and again.

Best time of my life has been when food disappointed me. Haha 4 month post. Weights falling off when I'm not interested in food or food makes me have a weird tummy or whatever. I listen to my body.

Don't worry. It worked. We all have different expectations. If you expect this to be a tool not a miracle you will be fine I love my sleeve 4 months post. You make it work for you Good luck.
