The best of luck for today , Your new life is here knocking so best you go answer that door and start your new life girl........ x

I had mine 3rd Aug 2011 and have lost a further 14st 7lb since, almost hitting the 20st mark now.... it still weirds me out to think i have lost almost 20st in 2 1/2 years but honestly, time flies after you had it done

I lost 5 stone pre op but then i weighed over 32 stones so it came off really quick at the start...

Yep, was awful but we got through it, Every night when i climbed into bed i was proud i had gotten through another day......... we could have 2 sticks of sugar free gum too a day ... are you allowed that? It stopped that horrible tasteless nasty thing in your mouth, either that or brushing your teeth 40 times a day Just remember, Its NOT Forever and you are doing amazing x

You will get there, Keep strong, you have come and incredibly long way, give your self a break, less stressing might help

I live in the uk and our pre diet was ......... 6 pints of skimmed milk per 24 hours 1 cup (200ml) of chicken stock for salts/proteins 1 pint of sugar free jelly/jello tea/coffee/diet soda We had to do this for 6 whole weeks and it was 6 months before operation and then again for 6 weeks before the Operation and then for 3 weeks after..... It makes you upset,dizzy, tired, angry, nasty and lil miss evil arse but trust me, its only a week of the rest of your life, grit your teeth and do it ... you will so proud of yourself when you have finished x Good luck

i weighed 456lb when i began and now at 207lb, i want to be down to 175lb but no matter how hard i try i can not get below 204lb... i float between 210 and 204 up and down for the last 4 months and its getting me down too, I don't make myself sick but i do stop eating and it makes me feel so ill but i just want to see that 203lb on the scales, Please try and get some help.... it sounds more in your head if im honest

I remember thinking how mine looked and smelt like duck poop :/

Aww thank you... It was like fate honestly, We have both had rough pasts but that is over now, we truly understand each other, how it feels to be larger, how it feels to go through the surgery and all that comes with it, before and after, We are a super sickly couple to our friends because we are so perfectly suited together :wub:

Besides weight loss, what has been the biggest benefit since getting surgery? I went to have my operation and i found love..... A stranger in the waiting room has turned in to the love of my life, we had every appointment together, our operation 1 day apart and have been a happy couple since 2 weeks post surgery, over 2 years on we are now planning our wedding, I went to lose weight and gained the man of my dreams x
