Good luck Gillian!! I am thinking about doing the WLS package as I am probably going to have to go into London anyway and like you said you can have unlimited fills in 6 months! Are they nice? Would you recommend? It is Wendy who also goes to London.

yes we got our fills yesterday in leeds..i had 1.25 put in taking me to 5.25..she said she could feel the pressure now and that i would def feel this time (she says its like when your pumping a bike tyre up from flat..you pump away feeling no pressure, then when its getting near you can feel the pressure as the needle is pushing the saline in) were going to sheffield in 2 weeks for maybe another dependidng on how we go with this one..but last night and this morning i could really feel some proper restriction, even with the smoothie i had for breakfast..maybe it was a bit thick altho i did liquidise it. i think im definatly going to be more cautious when i go to even mushy foods this time. she has these all singing dancing scales..and they do a print out personal to me, and even though they said i hadnt lost any weight, my fat mass was down by 2.5lb..so think that maybe means that the muscle mass has gone up?!..i dunno but want her gadgety scales!. and yes sammy i asked her if it was her who did the fills in london and yes it is..she does all of the clinics herself,shes a very busy lady! the clinics in london are every saturday and every sunday, and you can go to any of the clinics anywhere 2 weeks apart. the london one is on harley street. the package is worth it but i think the single fill is £80.check on their website. I am feeling hopefull that this fill will help me to start moving now, touch wood! she usually follows a rule of 3,2,1mls for fills she says for the first 3 appointments, then its fine tuning after that. x

Hi gillian glad everything went ok for you yesterday and fingers crossed this will give you some restriction this time, i cant wait to go next week for my 3rd fill and hope he puts a decent amount in, i do have a bit of restriction on certain foods, my weight has not changed since my last fill but my clothes are looser (weird) but that may be because im doing more exercise, how did bigsister get on x

hi kerry, bigsister was the same as me, and has the same amount in too. im much more getting used to that needle now! I made a berry smoothie this morning and had difficulty getting it down..hope it loosens off a bit though over next few days..mind you,on the other hand suppose this is what i need for a while, it might help weight come off this week at least, but wouldnt like it to feel like this for ever..im sure it will, as its just the trauma of being tightened for the first few days isnt it, then your stomach gets used to it and re-moulds itself around it (well thats what i read anyway!) hope your doing well and you have some restriction...how did your crumble go down?..your making my mouth Water, but today im thinking OMG, ill never eat anything solid again!..first time im feeling nervous about coming off (and actually sticking to) the liquids..there will be no turkey dinosaur accidents this time!. hope your doing well anyway, you have prob changed your fat into muscle too, thats why your clothes are fitting looser..its the same with me too..couldnt believe id not lost owt cos i felt lighter and fitter!!..lets hope our new fills will get us moving again..i am feeling much more positive after this one i must say.when is your next one? i bet youll be up to about 6ml then?.the most they can put in ours is 7 to 9ml..so youll be not far off or maybe even be at your sweet spot then? x

when you get to about 5.5 tho, even 0.25 can make all the difference apparantly, so hes prob just following the guidelines, just get as much as he can safely put in, it might make all the difference..think ill only get about that put in in 2 weeks..im hoping that will be me done...for a while anyway, till i get used to it suppose!

lets hope we get there next month, and start shifting again! im sure we will x

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
