Third Brit who is genuinely shocked that the NHS have even floated the option of surgery as well.
Im only on page 6 so no doubt this has been covered - a lot of hospitals get paid for what they do. There is a going rate on various operations, and so it is possible they were trying to make a profit as some of the americans in the thread suggested.
The NHS is free to us Brits, but the way it is run the various hospital trusts (incl private places that get sent NHS "work") are in it to make money.
Ive even seen one trust trying to sell a stupid spreadsheet with a pretty graph to another for thousands and thousand of pounds!
Yeah... the NHS is pretty shabby with the whole nutrition/weight loss scene...
I had a doctor start shouting at me yesterday saying "A 19 YEAR OLD MALE HAVING WHEY PROTEIN IS NOT NORMAL, STOP IT"... "WEIGHTLIFTING STUNTS GROWTH - DON'T COME BACK TO ME"... and then he said I'd be on steroids by 21...
then I walked out...
RIP NHS0 -
It's been a little over 2.5 months. I'm hoping @weezybeezy91 has an update for how this diet is going.0

Went really well. I lost a over a stone and then was put on to the food reintroduction plan where I was allowed 1200 calories a day, I put a little bit on but had lost it again and now I'm on the general food plan where I'm having 1500 calories a day including exercise. went on holiday and put on some again but I am losing slowly but surely so altogether I've lost 1 stone 10lb. Unfortunately I got this app back in 2013 so it says I've gained 9lb but promise that's not the case lol0 -
it doesn't sound like it went well if you gained it right back...SMH-1

Why are you so desperate to make me feel bad about putting on a couple of pounds then losing that plus more??!! Are you that desperate to make yourself feel better? Its really pathetic-2 -
@weezybeezy91 I hated my medically supervised VLCD (liquid) diet, and could hardly wait to go off it. Never again. But I am happy to hear it has worked for you. The small rebound, which I am sure was explained to you, is normal. I offer my unreserved congratulations.0

@weezybeezy91, I give you credit for coming back and being honest about your experience. Regardless of what you said in your update someone here will feel the need to criticize. It's the way of the internet.0

Towards the end it was so hard so I can understand! Thank you hun
I'm glad I'm now losing at a steady place, the way these guys were going on I was so sure I'd put it all back on but with hard work and determination I've managed it sort of lol. Good luck to you on your journey 0 -

Thanks, yeah no point in lying, I wouldn't be able to keep up with it lol.0 -
probably already said, obviously will see results with this diet - but its for the short term and not long term. the diet it self isn't sustainable. Good luck.0

Excellent, switching back to food and eating higher calories, of course you're going to gain a little bit back. Congrats on sticking with the plan, and glad to hear you're doing so well. Thanks for the update!0 -

That sounds like excellent progress...you appreciate the weight increase was to be expected and you're on a good path
If your weight tracker bothers you, you can go to the website>check in> edit previous entries...find your very first entry and change it to the weight you started at this time
Good luck0 -

Yeah that's true, thank you!0 -
Awesome loss, and even better that you were successful with reintroduction and have graduated to general food plan. You are a better woman than I am. I would have lasted about 2 days on the VLCD liquid diet before contemplating homicide. It is a real accomplishment when you gain a little back and are able to lose it again and continue on your path without rebounding to over eating. Congratulations on your loss.weezybeezy91 wrote: »It's been a little over 2.5 months. I'm hoping @weezybeezy91 has an update for how this diet is going.
