does anyone actually no any info about re stretching your stomach, i had a check up other day and had a telling off because i told the nurse i added a drop of soda water to a glass of wine, i no were not allowed fizzy but surley u would have to drink fizzy all day every day to stretch your stomach

i dont know about anyone else but i have been big all my life, tried every fad diet going and nothing ever seemed to work, a few pounds would come off here and there, then would all go back on plus more. i started my journey for a gastric sleeve never thinking i would even be accepted, it never really sunk in until the day of surgery, i also used to think there is no way this surgeon can change the amount i eat as my appetite was horrendous, its only hit me these last few days when i realised my clothes are hanging off me and look silly!! well anyway had a weigh in today and have lost 91lbs since surgery which will be 4 months ago on july 31st, never in all my days thought i would everr loose so much weight, boost my confidence and live a healthier happoer life, if anyones in doubt about surgery my moto is go for it and dont look back, best decision ive ever made, only regret is not having it done yrs ago! xx

i had mine on the nhs, from my first appointment to the day of my operation was 7 months, im 3 and half months out now and down 6 stone, bought myself size 18 jeans today, havent been in that size for yrs best decision ive ever made

ukkateuk where are u having ur op? i had mine in bournemouth hospital, how r u doing on the pre op diet?? i really dont know how i managed it but the op meant that much to me i didnt cheat once!! im 3 and half months out now down 6 stone and so much happier and confident, would like to hear gow u get on ☺

my surgeon told me that my gallbladder removal op had a higher death rate than a gastric sleeve, and if i compare the two recovery was much easier after the sleeve, go for the surgery its brilliant, my only regret is that i didnt do it yrs ago,

best thing to do is dont bother commenting on my posts in the future

has anyone been using the vibration power plates? just wondering how ppl have been getting on

dont exactly no wot ur laughing out loud at, people dont come on here to judge anyone of u hadnt already realised

@@proudgrammy i had surgery 3 months ago and have lost 81lbs, using the vibro plate to tone my body, aparently they work so no harm in trying,

How much have u lost in that month? Im 3wks out only 17lb down, feel as if it should be more

I have been told to weigh weekly rather than everyday,

Im having the same problem, but after eating a few spoonfulls the pain starts then i have to completly empty my stomach for the pain to go, im seeing my surgeon today to see wot he says, i hope it goes cus otherwise ive made a huge mistake, mealtimes r dreadfull at the moment

I lost 12 pounds in the first 2 wks and was over the moon with that. I want mine to come off slowly as im worried about saggy skin. A pound off is better than a pound on

Can anyone tell me when the pain while eating goes? I had my op 10 days ago and the pain when trying to eat or drink doesnt seem to get any easier, i keep thinking its gonna be like this forever! Its putting me off mealtimes as the pain is uncomfortable,

That is wot its like jamie, feels like somethings stuck, must be the tightness, when u was at that stage did u stil move on to the thicker foods? Tuesday is my 3rd week so should be having lumpy foods but dont no if i will get it down without hurting, should i stay on week two for a bit longer

Alot of you have been eating pureed foods early, did any of you have discomfort eating these foods

Cant believe how different my body feels just 8 days after surgery, clothes felt so much better so thought i would weigh myself. 9lbs down was sooo pleased, what was everyone elses first weight loss after surgery.? Total loss from first referal now is 43 pounds!

Hi all im 8 days post op have healed up lovley only concern is yesterday i should of gone onto thicker foods but tries a yoghurt and once it got into my stomach i had discomfort and only managed 2 teaspoons, i probaly could of had more but I was frightened to eat more. This also happens after a drink as well,

Thanks for the replys, today i manged to eat a little more than yest, had a small pot of low fat custard, fluids inbetween and half tin of soup for tea, which went down a treat! Was looking forward to something with some taste
