WOO HOO aussiegirl. You go girl ! I have never hoped to get stuck in a lift, but I wish for your sake you 2 do. ha ha Swift Kate, some days I have neausea, and I find Ribena juice helps. I dont know why, but it works for me. Also my sister had it in pregnancy as it settled her tummy. Give it a go. Take care.

Hi Scotty Sorry to hear that, but keep up the great attitude. By week 12 you should be on "almost" free diet. So unless there is something that you new little tummy dosnt like (such as creamy food or starchy food) you should be on all foods. I agree with everyone above about a quick visit with your dietitian. I know I felt 100% better off the mushies and on a normal diet. More energy and less blah!

I forgot to share a monumental moment this week, I checked my BMI and it is 29. WOW I am OVERWEIGHT not Obese anymore. I never thought I would be so bloody happy to be overweight. Only other weight strugglers would understand the joy in being overweight, as I started morbidly obese. A very happy overweight girl here today.

Hi All I am glad everyone is so well. Lila please dont focus on the amount. We can have part of our tummy that makes us eat too much cut out, but we cant have that negative part of our brain cut out. Our heads play funny tricks on us sometimes. Why is it if we put on 2 kilos, we say "Oh my god I put on 2 kilos can you believe it, so much" but when we lose 2 kilos we dont say "that much" it becomes ONLY 2 kilos. Aussiekelloff, good on you, I remember the first 16 I bought, I was tempted to leave the tag on and hanging out, just to show people i can wear a 16. Just wait until you go in to City chic with a friend and I pick up a dress and say "this is nice" and the shop assistant says "We dont have anything here to fit you" WOO HOO, I am used to it being "We dont have anything to fit you" for all the WRONG reasons.

Hi all I dont talk much but have just loved reading for the last few months. I thought it may be nice to say HI ! My name is Melanie I had a sleeve as a revision from a slipped band. Had my band in 2009 and sleeve 9 months ago. Starting weight was 120 kilos and now down to 77kilos. Or a size 20-22 to a size 12-14. I have actually seen a few of your faces as I work in the weightloss surgery industry. (I want to make this clear so nothing can be said about me not disclosing) I look forward to chatting more and following all your stories.
