Hi meet I'm in Wales and was sleeved July 2015 in Carmarthen. Best thing I ever did in my life.

What date is your op

Hi there, I have mine on Monday in Cardiff, getting anxious now. Good to hear you are pleased you had it done, I'm worried about the first few weeks but am certain it's the best decision for the longer term. Be good to keep in touch

I am 6 weeks on Friday. I am being sick quite a bit when I eat what I would call normal food but seem fine with my Snacks such as cheese etc. Weight loss going well. Got review next week.

Hi everyone, I'm 2 weeks out now and doing great, went back to work part time after a week. Still a bit sore but better every day, no problems so far and noticing weight loss already. Not weighing at home so will wait for clinic appointments, first one this coming Monday. Hope everyone doing well too

Hi Meeb. That's awesome news on being back to work after a week. Do you mind me asking what job do you do?

I work for the NHS, just did office based stuff the first week but pretty much back to normal now, except no manual handling!

Hi all I live in Milton Keynes and had my sleeve done on November 7th. It's been a rather roller coaster of a time, due to having a gastric bleed and ulcer a week later. Still struggle getting all my fluids down, but every day is a day of learning. On the 22 December they are putting a camera down to have a look see, will update everyone then.

All I can say is take things slowly don't try and rush things, but I have lost 55lb so everything is going in the right direction.

      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! 😞
