- This is my husband and I at our daughter wedding on Saturday. I had the surgery in March before she became engaged so my surgery was not because of the wedding. But boy am I so glad it all coincided. …
- Does anyone else sometimes feel that parts of their body they can see without a mirror, such as their legs or forearms are not in actuality theirs? Sometimes I just stare at them and think " They cann…
- I made the mistake of not measuring. But in hindsight it would have helped me through perceived stalls so much better to have done so early on. I am 9 months out and 118 pound down but the last 6 week…

- It is really hard in SE Asia to find anything sugar free or low carb. And of course everything comes with rice. There was coke zero but I was happy with water 99.9% of the time or coffee so this was n…

- I know on holiday I will be non stop but I'd like to not get carb addicted on rice dishes a day after day and have to fight it when I get home. Just wondering if anyone here has travelled to a similar…
- I don't know if anyone knows the girl in this video but I found this an enjoyable little video and could relate to most of what she was talking about. Maybe some of the pre-op folk might like to have …
- Does anybody else wonder if the calories burned are accurate on some of the exercise options on the database? We know it will vary with individuals of course but I have to shake my head sometimes. If …
- It was a teasing month but today that scale just decided today was the day. Crossing fingers it doesn't throw me back into the 90's tomorrow.
- Hoping others can explain this a little to me. After the first few months po I noticed the little bumps under the skin on my thighs. I assume they are fat. As I have lost more weight I am noticing the…
- Has anyone else found they are struggling with too low calorie intake 5-6 months out? I have been getting my 7-800 for a few months but I am having to make a massive effort to reach 600 again. I don't…
- Today I decided to share my sleeve story with my facebook friends. I just felt it was time as it was my 5 month post surgery day. I posted a pre surgery photo and a today photo along with an explanati…
- My GP and surgeons all use the average wls data for the first year then the second year etc. So they all told me I could expect to lose 30-50% of my excess weight in the first twelve months and 60-90%…
- I am nearing 5 months out and have stuck to under 800 calories. For the first two months I was lucky to get in 500 per day. However I noticed people increase intake as time goes by. So just wondering …
- It has been teasing me for a while but today I reached my second goal. My first was t to get under 100kg, the second to reach under 200lb. Next goal - reaching 100lb loss. Final goal 145 loss. :-) lif…
- This Saturday I am going with an old friend to a concert (80s band). I am actually really looking forward to it. (My husband doesn't like the band so is not going). My friend has not seen me since bef…
- Well I have just hit stall number 3. Had a big loss week just before it. First few days,,,oh just another little stall,,no biggie. But at just on a week now my head is playing mind games. First no cha…
- For those who are interested, I have uploaded a photo of the body fat scan I had done just after surgery. You can see the yellow fat tissue, the red muscles and blue bones. Remembering that there woul…
- VEG was scary but the best decision I have ever made. However a week after surgery my endocrinologist sent me for a full body fat density scan. That was so shocking for me to view. The scan shows the …
- I have read on here several times about people using fitbit bands. Can someone tell me more about them? :flowerforyou:
- How did you all work out your food diary limits? So I know 80 for protein and I have 800 calories for energy but how did you work out the rest like carbs, fats?
- One of the reasons I chose to have a sleeve was that I love to travel in SE Asia. Sometimes it can be warm and accepting and other times it has been very hard to be a big person in a generally slim so…
- Both of my sons presented me with lovely big boxes of chocolates for Mothers Day. Clearly an old habit I need to help them break. Of course I haven't touched them but had to wonder what my sons though…
- Can't describe the feelings that hit me when I watched this show about Christina. She is so young. I feel so fortunate to have been able to have my sleeve. I had a rapid weight increase between 2000-2…
- I checked out the rest of the forum for the first time and WOW,, they know how to have a go at each other. I realised that being VSG maybe we are not as grumpy. I remember being a dieter without VSG. …
- I have been researching protein sources and Venison seems to come up trumps in protein and low fat and not insane calories. I have never eaten Venison but I am willing to try it. My stomach might just…
- I am still struggling to get proteins in. I am lucky if I am reaching 20 never mind 80gm per day. Has anyone used an amino acid supplement instead of relying on protein from food? I like meat, really …
- I have noticed that I feel guilty that when I eat I feel full. When I was dieting in the past, I rarely got to feel full. So when I cheated on previous diets and ate enough to feel full,,I would feel …
