viv sawyer 0 Posted June 24, 2011 Hiya all, sorry i have not been around lately, been moving home and various other things, just thought i would give you an update, my surgery was 1st of Feb 2011, and i have now lost the grand total of 6 stone, (about 80lbs), as you can imagine i am really pleased, at first i was pretty doubtful that the surgery would work, after all when has anything 'really' worked?? but i can honestly say i am so pleased with the results so far, i have another stone to lose until i reach my first goal, but then another 4-5 stone to go after that to reach my final goal, i have found that i can eat most things, apart from lettuce, never ever eating that again!! pizza is not good for me either, Pasta is ok but i get full very quickly, i've had only a few bad moments, mainly when i have tried to eat more than my stomache will allow, or drinking and eating at the same time, anyway hope everyone is doing great viv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Griselda 7 Posted June 24, 2011 Oooh, 6 stone is a lot!! You're doing great! Love the pooch, he/she looks a bit like mine. I've not tried lettuce or pizza or Pasta yet, but I am hoping I will be able to have small amounts occasionally. You must post some before/during pics to inspire us. I am about 1 1/2 months out and down about 2 1/2 stone.

LisaM 3 Posted June 24, 2011 Wow, fabulous job! So exciting!! I love to see our foreign friends on the boards too. I lived in Belgium for 5 years as a kid, so I got to visit many countries and make lots of friends. I wish we had Facebook or forums like this back then, I wouldn't have lost contact with them!
