I should have added I am having the sleeve at Albyn.

Hi I'm going in on Tuesday. Have you been sleeved yet?

Hello, There is an Almoat breakfast porridge that I love. I am trying understand what I should try to consume during the day once on the soft food and beyond phase. Here is the nutrition info for the product; could this be a good choice as it is high in Protein or bad because of carb content? Nutrition (per 100g) Energy 411 Kcal / 1719.6 Kj Protein 38 g Fat 22 g of which Saturates 7 g Carbohydtrates 17 g of which Sugars 2 g Fibre 13 g Salt 0.1 g Any comments appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Many thanks to all who replied. It's clear I have a lot to learn I need to find something like a 7 day plan that is optimum and tweak for me until I learn the right balance. Much appreciated!

My husband brought back from Canada when he goes back to visit his family. I have unopened boxes if you'd like one - happy to share. I'd be happy to pop in the post to you or drop off if in Aberdeen. Xx Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thanks for the update cc70. I am getting done at Albyn too. Glad you're are feeling good and the gas is passing. I have GasX ready to use! I hope the next part of the journey is a smooth one!

Hello, I am booked for the sleeve on June 28th and still having doubts. My concerns have more to do with life after the surgery beyond the initial month. I accept that it will be a challenge and one I need to get on with. Another person made an comment that stuck - it is learning to no longer use food as a way to manage emotions and feelings. I keep thinking that if I didn't have long term success with normal dieting with liberal use of willpower isn't it likely that I will not be successful with this weight loss tool. Anyone struggle with this and how did you overcome? Is there anything you wish you had done before the surgery or after the surgery? What is the diet like a year on? Basically any advice would be welcome.

Many thanks to all who've gone before! So reassuring and wise words indeed. I definitely will need to work on the head hunger! Feeling better about the op now. Thanks from Aberdeen! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi cc70, How did the surgery go? I just found this board and saw that you were also booked in at Albyn. I am scheduled for June 28th. I am so nervous about future life after surgery. What was it like once you got home and living the diet? Any hunger? Is your loss as you expected? Any advice? Thanks xx
