Hi CantBelieve_IdidIit!

Dont really know where to start, but I was always a big kid.

Used to play rugby and was a school swimmer (high school) was always big and muscular, till I went to the Army.

I had an operation on both my feet, due to injury, thus unable to walk for almost 8 mths in 2003.

Since den I've just been eating and eating and eating.

No exercise.... loads of alcohol and serious binge eating especially at night after 11pm.

I've put on heaps of weight and decided to have a VST this year because I felt I couldnt keep to dieting and exercise. And the VST went well on the 1st May 2012.

Since then I've lost alot of weight and am continuing to lose even more.

I've noticed my shoulders getting smaller... kinda like an "A" body shape, and decided to head to the gym last night, hoping to bulk up my shoulders before even more weight loss occurs.

I get sleeved in a week and my first trip will be to Singapore. What Hawker food could you eat 6 weeks out? I am thinking grilled stingray or Chili Crab would go down easy.

after 6 weeks ....

almost everything... just in very very very tiny portions and in a very very long time (chewing).

Spicy food is ok.... depends on how bad your acid reflux is ...

I respond quite well to spicy food ... but have heard from others who just cant take it.

Welcome to our little island :)

Wishing you a good one :)
