Yep, can relate! I want that piece of pizza, but I'm buggered if it will fit in!<br> Just take things easy and your recovery will continue to go well.<br><br> I'm doing well.. I have lost 10kgs not to bad in 5 weeks, considering the stupid stall I had.<br><br> It gets easier, and I'm learning what,when and how much to eat. food is becoming not so much of a focus anymore. <br><br> I put on a jacket this morning as I am desperate for something warm to wear to the footy. All my jackets were way too small.<br><br> I was gobsmacked when it actually fit! No tightness in the arms, or across the back, and I could even do up the buttons. It's one of those 'NSV's' that I read about all the time, and it feels good!

I found a cauliflower base for pizza - might allow you to have one piece :)! Just cauli cheese and egg - bake it a little and then pop your toppings on!

That's so good about the jacket! I can't wait for some of those victories!

I'm doing okay! I made meat pies for my auntie and uncle tonight and then had my soup!

Hope your weekends gone well :)

He was fine... Informative and not pushy or judgy so that was nice. He seems to know what he is doing;)

Hi Everyone

I have just booked in to get a Sleeve by Jon Armstrong at Hollywood Private Hospital. My op date is the 3rd of November. I'm a little nervous but excited. My surgeon has asked that I do a month of Optifast before surgery so I'm looking forward to getting stuck into that! Can anyone tell me about their experience at Hollywood Hospital? Thanks!

Hi JLaw78

I had my surgery with Jon Armstrong at Hollywood 18 months ago. Everything went well & he was excellent as were the nursing staff.

I have reached my goal weight & must admit I' could probably loose a bit more if I exercised but I just hate it & just never seem to find the time, I do walk a bit as in parking the car a bit further away....

As for food I can eat anything & still have a few treats but if I do it's only a little so it's not a problem.

It's the best thing I just wish I had done it years earlier.

Good luck but you don't need it you will be fine.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
