I wont bother weighing for a couple of weeks

Surgeons who won't set a goal?
Weldone! I alsohad the reduce blood preasure, i had melignent hypertention, blured vision headaches, on high dose of meds. was completely of my meds in under 2 weeks , because my bp was going low ! so amazing. i have not even lost much but the change is just amazing

Surgeons who won't set a goal?
- My plan is not super strict, i am in the uk, It seems plans are more strict abroad, but balanced diet is all I am required to do, been told not to do low carb. But its inevetable as you just do not feel like wasting tummy space with some foods even if its infront of you , you just eat meat , then veg, ignore potatoes. lol for me anyway 6 weeks in. I have my goal of 135 ( 24+BMI) 5.2 will maybe lose 20lbs more to give myself space incase of bounceback or whatever.

Surgeons who won't set a goal?
My surgeon/NUT/Nurse never set me a goal. We disscussed what my goal was. 6 weeks in. Steady weightloss is all they discuss.

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty
Goodluck . Sounds like you know why you want to do this one. I dont consider 220 and 5.3 lower bmi but i supposed compared to people who are 500lbs. If its for lower bmi why is it for lower bmi? like are they removing less stomach? I would rather go for the full surgery and have the stomch removed lol thats me . I was 235 on surgery day 5 foot 2 so similar to you, you know whats best .

Baby foods and real food.
Real food is batter. More nutrients. Just puree food. I tried baby food tasted gross. Regain can happen to anyone if you do not stick it the plan. But some regain at goal is also known as bounce back. I'm 6 weeks post. Sent from my Swift 2 using BariatricPal mobile app
