new to forum, 6.5 weeks post Op and question

[healpro 0]

Hi, discovered this forum today and so glad I have. Was sleeved just over 6 weeks ago, doing ok. I live in the UK and this op is fairly new here as a stand alone procedure, consequently the forums here are not brilliant. Am still in the process of 'lurking' about and looking at all the info.

I found a thread earlier (whilst at work) called 'hungry sleevies' or something very similar and now I cannot find it - could someone point the way back to it for me so I can finish reading it please? It is very pertinent to me as I was sooo looking forward to not being hungry anymore and unfortunately this has not been the case for me and this thread had some very useful info in it.

I self funded for my procedure and chose to do it before I got really big - I weighed 224. I have only lost 8 kg so far (17.6 lbs), this includes pre-op diet so as you can see my loss is VERY slow. I have always been a slow loser and am now trying to maximise my weight loss.

Don't regret any of it for one minute and am very positive that this was the right thing to do.

I probably wont post often as am more of a lurker, but thanks for having me!!
