Glad to see you back and feeling better! Well i have to say that i have no tips because im pretty much just eating everything in moderation. I find that i can stamp down those cravings by just having a small amount like instead of a chocolate bar i get those small supermarket brand biscuit bars they are lower in calories but they do the trick! How are you doing with the weightloss??

Hi Vicci,
Staring to feel a little bit more human now....my it was such a bad dose of the flu i had!!!!
Glad the weight is still dropping wow 4 stone im sure you are looking fab never mind feeling great! Well over the last few days i can understand what you mean by battleing with yourself as i have been constantly grazing and i know i need to get a grip of myself!! Its not with my main meals still can only manage small portions but i can tolerate crisps and chocolate and have been nibbling them a little too frequently that now i find myself craving them and i see old me reappearing again and i dont ever want the old me back!!!
How do you manage? any tips?

Hi Noonie,

Im glad your doing well! Im doing pretty good even though i was in a stall!! I hadn't lost any weight in 3 weeks GRRR!! The scales showed a loss of 2lbs today so thats cheered me up!! Im able to tolerate everything so im gonna have a tough time keeping it healthy!! Ive also started an aqua arobics class so that will help to keep me from stalling again hopefully!

Hi Vicci,
How are you doing? I see the weight loss is going good 3 stone 4lbs that is great well done to you!! How is the eating going?
Im also doing good had a very hectic social life the past 10 days with lots of food to tempt me and yes i did give in a few times and found i had no adverse effects dont know if that so good!!!!
Weight loss is slowing down now but then i have not had such a good diet over the last few days so back on track now. Have lost 3 st 8.5lbs to date so am still a happy camper.

Hi,

Im glad everthings going ok for you and i hope the pain gets sorted soon!! Im now weighing in at 19st so thats 3st 4lbs off and im sooo happy!! I can almost eat anything now but like you just a lot less than before!! I have noticed that i dont get dumping syndrome though as i had one of those bottles of strawberry flavoured water, i thought i had the sugar free kind but nope it was the original!! It has 24g sugar in it so i thought i would have reacted badly but i was fine! Not even any nausea! People ask me if i could do it again knowing what i know now would i still do it and my answer is yeah of course without a doubt!!

Keep in touch

Hi Vicci,
Im doing good its 2 months today from i had my op, even though i dont weigh till wednesday i could not resist it i was trilled so see that i now weigh 15.12 (was 19.2 1/2) so im feeling very happy this morning, wont chart it till tomorrow though might have even shed another wee bit hey!!!
The eating is going well fit to eat almost everything now but in very snall quantities and still slowly but not as slow as at the start which is good.
Getting alot of pain still which is preventing me from exercising and that is really annoying me was at gp yesterday and she feels it could be gallbladder related i was looking for her to prescribe me the ursofalk but she wouldnt she wants me scanned first so waiting now to be called for a wee scan i suppose atleast i will know if it stones or not.
Apart from the pain i feel on top of the world and im so happy i had the surgery.
How about you and your progress? would love to hear how you are getting on....
