The Stall...
I had my sleeve exactly 2 weeks ago and have no loss at all. I rang my nutritionist today and she said that as long as I am sticking to the diet and drinking enough water that I should not be concerned. She stated that inflammation plays a big part post surgery. Also I need to take senna to encourage Bowel movement

Anyone sleeve the week of 6/25?
I am on thicker soups - made one with leeks, spring onions, edamame beans and gammon - got two medium bowls down and later managed quick a large drink. It's going to take time

Not replacing scale battery
Hi all I have the most amazing scales that track my weight and record in an app. The obsession with getting on and off them has now ended. I have worked out that the scale is not moving and it is stressful and dictates my mood. I have been sleeved two weeks tomorrow and have a follow up appointment in 4 weeks time. I will wait until then to know how much I have lost. I am happy now - I worked out it doesn't matter re the numbers -my mental health feels really stable knowing I have embarked on this journey and what I am doing can only eventually lead to weight loss. I can hardly eat and can't wait to exercise. I see a brighter future.

Eating out the first time after surgery
I went out last night on day 8 . I had a mango lassi ( yogurt drink ) and two spoons of lentil Dhall which was too spicy. We left quite promptly as I was a little over whelmed by the heat and the food - but I was so glad to be out and sociable. I also developed back and hip pain. Staying at home I would not have known how weak I was

Show me a day
I can't imagine having to worry about portion sizes too much as the sleeve is restricted - but it's a good thing to think of

Dating horrors
I came looking for stories re dating - I personally have not had much joy with dating as the people I attract are fickle and also into large ladies. I would not be concerned re this behaviour- a lot of people mess around on dating sights with no intention to meet or indeed have relationships already. I have also know people who have been successful with online dating
