Oh thats great, I have not seen many people from the UK. I am in Derbyshire, got sleeved in Sept, this year.

I'm from Southend on sea, Essex - quite a long way from you! There are a few people from UK, but not a lot.. I was sleeved in February. Love it! Hope all is good for you

Wow, I thought my food choices would be boring and plain. Glad to see that once I had the surgery I can look forward to some tasty meals.

I was concerned about that as well and it has not turned out to be true. I think that's part of why I post about food, different recipes etc. so much.

It's very possible to cook good, fresh, tasty, easy food that is sleeve friendly.

People focus on what they CAN'T have. The fact is, if we focus on what we CAN have, it's quite nice to think we might be able to lose weight while eating beef, fish, chicken, pork, shrimp, lobster...not to mention lots of lovely, healthy vegetables.

You may have to learn different recipes, you may have to learn how to cook, or order from restaurants, but so much is possible with what we're encouraged to eat.

Okay my lunch. Is an attempt to show you how to make the best of a bad situation. Restaurant in tiny airport. Choices are salad, fried fish and burgers and a seafood bisque. I can't do raw veggies yet and can't eat a burger patty. It goes down too hard

So I ordered the seafood bisque and I'm basically fishing out (har har) the fish and leaving the potatoes and cream behind. Sometimes we just have to adjust right?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
