NEW TO THE SITE

Hi everyone, I am please to have found a U.K support site.

I was Sleeved on the 18th Aug 2011 and I think I am doing everything wrong after reading your stories.... I raidly got bored with blitzed food and have tried to add variety with my food. I am very social so eating out was a challenge on pureed food stuffs so I managed a childs portion of fish chips and peas the other day. admittedly i didn't eat the batter and sucked three chips and a fork full of peas but it was good!!!

The only down side I have found is I am back to work ( after 10 days sort of rest) and I find my right side seems to pull by the end of the day!!! I am very tired too...

My start weight was 12st 12lb, and I have health issues with high blood pressure kidney disease, gout.... I am now off most of my medication, I took 13 pills a day to start with and now I take 3.

My gout has dissapeared and I have got down to 11st 4lb and it is my 6 week reveiw with the surgeon tomorrow...

I had to pay privately and went to the Spire Hospital southampton and had a Mr Van Den Bossche.

I look forward to any tips the U.k branch can pass on!

happy weight loss.

Lady Ann

Hiya Lady Ann ...

google ticker factory and follow the steps. To get it onto your profile you have to copy and paste the BB code (I think that is what it is) ... this is pasted on to your signature, under your profile settings. It took me ages to get the hang of it...lol... but I am a visual person and I like to see it move!!

EWWWW, a broken rib is nasty. I am out of action at the moment with a thigh injury and it has taken its toll on me so heaven knows how you must be feeling. Chin up my lovely and a speedy recovery xx
