There was a woman on the same day as my mum that got the bypass and she was crying for cake and screaming wanting to know why she wasn't allowed to eat anything. It was very strange because it was like she didn't even know she was getting weight loss surgery.. I hope she's ok and didn't go home and eat a cake or something

March 25th! Yeah she had a band that eroded into her stomach and there was a lot of scar tissue so another band wasnt a good idea. The surgeon dr Ian michell didn't want to do a sleeve because he said he didn't know enough about it long term and recommended the bypass because he does a lot of them.

I'm turning 21 too And yeah she got the bypass! Sometimes I wish I got the sleeve -.-

@@steveelea holidays are meant to be enjoyed! As long you had a good time and get back on track all will be good! And happy new year to you too I think everyone has come to a stand still over the last couple weeks, on another forum everyone has stayed at the same weight or gained this week, maybe it's the lovely melbourne weather... I'm stuck on 79 at the moment but not too worried as I've been eating pretty crap. My birthday is in 10 weeks so hopefully 10kgs fall of me in that time! I've booked a venue, this wil be my first birthday party EVER.. Like an actual party not just family and cake. So I'm looking forward to it! My mum got out of hospital yesterday, surgery was a success and all is well! They kept her in two extra days because she wasn't getting down enough fluids, she's still struggling with it but she's getting more down.

They get a lot of complaints, I'm surprised they're even still running that business!! And thank you ???? my boyfriend is coming tomorrow for a few days so I'll make him buy me some chicken and asparagus!

Thanks everyone still got a while to go but I'm feeling a lot better both mentally and physically!

Definitely hurts more to wax yourself!!

Haha I'll be right, it's not the first time! It's just the calories in them that freak me out a bit. I quit at the end of the year, boss was a nutcase and I couldn't handle the way she treated the dogs and customers. I would tell her not to lift a dog by the collar on to the grooming table but she would just have a go at me... Happy to be out of there!

I'm stuck with instant noodles for the next 7 days.. I will be so angry if I gain anything. There's not much you can do when you only have $20 and need cat food too! So tight with cash it's crazy, thinking about staying with my mum for a week or two once I get paid, she might be able to feed me in exchange for some baby sitting.

@@Bellarose100 how exciting!!!!! It will come by so quickly!

Weeeeeeeeell... 25KGS DOWN! Haha finally got under 80. 79kg on the dot! Feels good to get out of one set of numbers and into another

Went out and got this today 24kg down, couldn't wait for 25 LOL

Got this today

I ate so much in the last week. Went a bit overboard on Christmas day, got home and ate leftovers -.- Then went to my grandmas on boxing day and we ate MORE leftovers.. then we all went to bingo and ate LOLLIES and CRAP! Been eating a lot of crap.. weighed in this morning still 80.4kg -400g during the Christmas period, it's a Christmas miracle! I wanted to enter the new year in the 70's but I'm more than happy to get there in the first week of 2015 20.4kg to go .. hopefully get there by the end of March!

@@steveelea as for the pudding, I'm so lucky I don't have to do anything like a Christmas lunch or dinner! I would do that every year!! On a totally different subject, My bra was just totally falling off and no support, emptying cup.. So I tried an old one that I never actually fit into, it's a 10f.. What I used to be! One boob pokes out a bit but a couple more kilos will fix that Such a difference! I'm emptying out after all the gains and losses, looks like I'm gonna have to save for a boob job! Exciting though hahaha

It was actually really nice, she couldn't stay long. We talked for about 40 minutes, her husband was lovely. She was really, really nice. I have a few tattoos and thought I might have been judged because she is pretty religious but they were both absolutely fine and I felt very comfortable. So glad to get that done before the new year started, it's been so many years in the waiting. We're gonna catch up again soon so that will be good

@@Bellarose100 I'm 5"2 so 157-158cm

I'm about 20kgs away from my first goal which is 60kg, my ultimate goal is 58kg, so yeah I am almost there My Christmas was good, ate a bit too much and got lots of compliments which gave me a bit of a confidence boost. I've been so flat out it's crazy. I got in contact with my sister that I've never met, we're having dinner tomorrow.. and we only facebook messaged on Friday LOL .. pretty nerve racking. I'm 20 and she's 27, she's bringing her husband which is a bit weird.. but hopefully it goes well. How was your Christmas? @@steveelea and everyone elses? My mums started her preop diet for her gastric bypass on the 7th of Jan.

Thanks I feel great! I haven't been too hard on myself and have let myself give in to temptation a few times. Everything in moderation!

Merry Christmas I got my mum to take some photos of me today! Excuse my face lol the sun was in my eyes, but yeah! I can see it now, especially in the calves. My arms are super annoying, but they'll shrink eventually!

I had a different picture uploaded but it was actually a really crappy photo that did me no justice, then I thought I would remake a photo taken about week before surgery when I got my kitten, who is now the bigger cat. She grew and I shrunk

@@steveelea Yeah, a big change! You look great!! You're doing so well :D I hardly have any befores because I would always run and hide whenever anyone would pull a camera out, there is one photo though, I'll try and find the dress I wore in that photo and take a picture to compare them!

@@steveelea doesn't give me permission to open the photo for some reason. From what I can see in the thumbnail though, you are looking great! Very VISIBLE difference!

@@steveelea Oh wow, very rude. I have a pretty short fuse so that would of grinded my gears pretty badly. Especially after not acknowledging that you're now a size 18. She KNOWS you've lost weight, there's no way she can't tell. I was watching a show on tv, a woman was 130 and lost 13kg and I was like omg wow.. There was a big difference and that's only 13kg! Some people are so shitty. .5kg loss a week is still great! Any loss is a good loss. I'd rather lose weight instead of stuff my face too It's one day off a week from my fill and I'm down .5 to 81.1kg.. sooooooooo good to finally see it moving. I was sitting at 83 to 83.5 for like 5 weeks or more.. It's pretty annoying to think that those 5 weeks could have been 5 kilos lost, but it's a million times better than 5 kilos gained!
