Hi

This is Laine. I'm from the UK and I was banded last November. I've lost two and a half stones since being banded. (Maybe more - havent been weighed since early February.

I'm also a member of a great site in the UK called Weight loss info. (WLSinfo). Perhaps some of you are too?

Best wishes to you all.

Laine:)

Heyas Laine, and a big warm welcome to ya. Where about are you from in the UK? My hubby (Dawg) is from Gosport but lives here in the states with me now.

There is a growing population of folks from the UK here at LBT, I'm sure you'll run into them soon.

Welcome! No connections to the UK other than several layovers in Heathrow and DH being detained there once, momentarily, because their Beagle Brigade couldn't tell the difference between drugs and a bag of granny smith apple slices. :paranoid

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
