im going through this at the moment, and i also have 'furry teeth' which are annoying me. I suck on sugar free mints alot! And hope that when i move onto solids, these symptons should leave me forever!!

im worried about looking old too! Everyone says i look younger than my 33 years, so when the weight starts falling off, my natural fillers (fat) will be gone But, i think i can live with a few wrinkles, rather than layers of fat. And as others have said, im not afraid to use the botox!!

i had my 3 week stall, at 2 weeks But im aware your body goes into a starvation type mode roughly every 3 weeks or so, and holds onto the weight. See how it goes next week, as i will

i had my sleeve a aday after yours, and i havent been to the 'loo' for a few days, so id also like to know what we can take! x

hey warrior, i was a 20+ smoker. When i found out i was having the sleeve i quit 4 weeks before surgery, with the help of nicotine Patches. One big reason is that during the op, smokers are more prone to incident, and it takes them longer to recover post surgery. Thats all i needed to hear! I thought if i can just not smoke until surgery, i can always smoke after if i want. Post surgery, i still havent had a craving for a ciggy and i came off the ptaches the day of the surgery. Honestly the last thing id want to do right now is smoke! Ill be honest though, its really strange not stuffing my face while quitting smoking, the internet has become my new obsession! researching the sleeve, doing my blog, anything to keep my mind and hands busy. Id advise you to really not smoke before the op and see how it goes after. Good luck x

Hi Diane, can i ask what youre drinking at the moment? im struggling getting 60 grams of Protein in while on the liquid diet! And well done on getting through the surgery! x

my highest BMI was 46 and id like to get below 25 Still feels like a dream!

im also 2 weeks liquids, 2 weeks pureed foods, 2 weeks mushy then slowly introduce solids. I think mash potato is a little early at 8 days, unless you make it super runny. Id just wait to have it properly though

im also writing one, take a look and see what you think! www.1cakeordeath.blogspot.com x

i think a real account of whats been going on! the kind of things youve been eating...any problems you've had....how youre feeling emotionally...funny stories etc etc x

me too please! deets66@hotmail.co.uk thanks

hmm i know what you mean! you almost need to write a list of things to cover before you start I get all tongue twisted on camera so ill avoid that lol Anyhoo, ive subscribed and look forward to more videos! x

ive got 2 tattoos but they are over 20 years old (jeez i feel old!) ive been waiting to loose weight before i get more. I want one of these characters with my highest weight in roman type numerals so i never forget where i was

im on the same schedule, i start softs on Wednesday... cant wait!

nice video! Youre very brave sticking it out there!! and i like the hair colour im writing my diary down in a blog, because im not as brave as you!! x

Hi all, i start the puree stage of my of post op diet next week (2 weeks post op). Im struggling to understand the difference between puree and mushy though?? Can anyone give me a definition? Ive got a few ideas for the puree which is basically anything as long as it is blended! If you have any recipes, id love to hear them. Ive already blended some chicken casserole and chilli con carne. In terms of the mushy stage, im not sure what i should be looking at? Everyone keeps saying "mashed potato", but there must be more to the mushy phase than mashed potato!! Any recipes would be welcomed! thanks y'all x

thanks Fluffy, it gives me a better understanding. Basically i can have the same thing for purre AND mushy. So could have chicken stew but would need to blitz it for the puree part, or mush it up (with lumps) for the mushy part! thanks x

those look fab!

i want the unicorns too nothing wrong in dreaming (as long as there is a side dish of reality )

hows ure post op diet going Twostep?

hope it goes away soon!
