Im being sleeved on 8/8/13 and looking for a local sleeve buddy

I have lost 5.9kgs in first 8 days so gotta be happy with that. It is much easier this week. Im very excited and wish it was sooner but im also very nervous

Great results,If you don't mind me asking why do you need to do Optifast for 4weeks?Thats a long time.By the time you get to solids on the otherside you will be desperate to eat something .Keep up the great work.I feel like my could be more but it's slower with the sleeve.Still happy with the results.

Cause my bmi is 60. It sucks doing it longer than others but its worth it in the long run

Yes it is.This time next year we won't recognise ourselves .So worth it.Keep being strong and I'm here if you need to ask anything.Not that I'm an expert as I've only been done for7 weeks but if I can I'm happy to help.

No I'm not on it.I am on Facebook but I don't know how to join.What do I do?

Hi ladies, I'm sorry but I'm in Brisbane. I'm happy to help with support too. I was sleveed on 3rd June. I've lost 14.9kgs but 7.4kgs were on the pre op. I have to say that the optifast was the worst part of the process! I get to start solid foods today!

Keep up the great work.. 5.9kgs in 8 days is great!!

Hi Bec, how's the solids going?Great weight loss .Keep up the good work.

Thanks Cathy. Solids are going down ok. But I have been playing it safe lol. I'm going to try a chicken tenderloin tomorrow night with steamed veg that aren't cooked to death lol. I just want to take it easy and just try alittle bit at a time

How are u doing Cathy?

great idea Bec,take it slow.Im good I have lost 20 kg including 2weeks of Optifast.I was done on may 22nd so all together it's about9weeks.Sometimes I feel it's a bit slow cause 7 of it was the opti but when you work it out over the weeks I'm going ok.

That's great Cathy! I know I'm losing slowly but that's fine with me. As long as it's a loss each week. How are u going with solids? Any tips?

Hi Bec,sorry it's been a while.Hows it going.Im at a stand still.So frustrating.Im now down nearly 22 kg.the longer igo on this the more variety I tolerate and I also find I am able to eat certain slider foods way to easy.Hope it's going we'll for you.
