Hi there, I'm new on here, had my Sleeve Op 23rd Feb 2015 in the UK so 1 week post Op, I haven't lost any weight as yet, not 1lb, is thus normal?? ????????

I must also say reading all your messages, it seems the UK surgery/pre Op/food intake is so very different from in the US.

Hi, I'm yet to even have my initial consultation, but wanted to say hi as I'm in uk too!

Hope your surgery went ok and you're recovering? I'm sure the weight will start to drop off soon. What surgeon/Hosp did you use?? And would you mind sharing what the pre/post op diet is you're following?

Hi I had my surgery in Sheffield, Thornbury Hospital. Pre op diet was 10 days milk and low fat yoghurt, was extremely hard but I didn't cheat!! Post Op fluids only for 2 days, then puréed diet for next 4 weeks, which I'm on now, I'm struggling to be honest with the purée as I'm quite a fussy eater. Whereabouts are you in the UK?

Hi both i am in the uk too and was sleeved on the 26th! Still bloated and look pregnant on liquids only for the first 2 weeks xx

I'm near Southampton, plan on using michael van den bossche at the spire hospital. I'm hoping for surgery in May, need to book my consultation etc. I'm still a bit scared of committing to it..,I know it's right and I need to get it done, but it's scary! At the same time a bit exciting too!

How are you getting on with drinking water? That's one of my biggest concerns as I drink a lot!!

I'm in the uk, sleeved 27th feb at spire Solihull. 4 days post op at the mo. :-)

I had mine at the royal free in london through the company Healthier Weight i am 5 days post op and as each day passes the pain is less than the day before but i have my mum and sister as support as for the few days going to the loo was a struggle due to the incisions but not feeling hungry

Yes it happens. Sometimes it's water weight from the IV fluids and sometimes it's your body trying to adjust to the changes. Give it time. Continue to follow your doctor's instructions. The weight will come off.

Well I never drank enough water before so I guess it hasn't been a problem, I do need to drink more but I am told not to have a drink 30 mins a meal until 30 mins after a meal and when you have to have 5 small meals it is difficult fitting all the water in!!
