Hullo from Dubai // Intro

[Cheko77 1]

Hi Everyone ,

My name is Ahmet . I live in Dubai.

Until end of university, even first 2 years of my work i used to have a good body. I dunno what happened but i found myself rapidly gaining weight afterwards .

Did diets.. Healthy eating. Gym. Even liposuction ( what a waste of money.. pff )

I had to go through all these ups and downs to finally decide on gastric sleeve surgery.

Its exactly my 7th days from the day of my surgery . I went in at 117.7 kg and now i am at 109.4 kg . My height is 178 cm .

I see the importance of sharing experiences so here i am. Hi everyone again and all the best to all of us

Welcome to the forums. This is the best decision you could have made and you have a wonderful healthier life to look forward to. I like your name. Mine is very similar (Rehmet). Good luck on your WLS journey and keep us posted with your progress.

Thanks a lot .

What a lovely name, Rehmet . I know “ rehmat “ means blessing in farsi language. I guess Rehmet should be the same.

About the WLS, i just wanna pass the 1st month and at least try to eat normal food.

Started walking etc which are all fine. But for some reason i feel i am hungry all the time :))

Hi there!

I am also in Dubai and will be 2 months posy op.... I used to feel this way also... Thought its something wrong.. But turns out the body takes a while to understand that its a diff routine now with a smaller tummy.

Alhamdulilah this feeling does go away.

Goodluck!

Ps. On pureed food i had alot of prawn lentil Soup and blended it... It tasted so good

Hi....

where did u have your surgery ? I had it at Dr Gokhan , Al Zahra Hospital.

Walla i have been drinking and drinking only. Water water water . I am tired of it already. Lool . Had a juice today. But dunno how to get Soup . Normal meat soup or bone soup really sucks . Protein is ok but my dietition told me not to do it with Milk yet. So thats again with water in the mornings....

thanks on the pureed food . I was thinking of buying baby food but your suggestion does soung yummy will definitely try .

Hi Dubai people! I'm also in Dubai right now. Headed back to Beirut in a few weeks. I also consumed a lot of lentil Soup in the past month. Really Lebanese food is ideal for the recovery period because there are lots of mushy healthy things.
