Oh thats great, I have not seen many people from the UK. I am in Derbyshire, got sleeved in Sept, this year.

I'm from Southend on sea, Essex - quite a long way from you! There are a few people from UK, but not a lot.. I was sleeved in February. Love it! Hope all is good for you

Wow, I thought my food choices would be boring and plain. Glad to see that once I had the surgery I can look forward to some tasty meals.

I was concerned about that as well and it has not turned out to be true. I think that's part of why I post about food, different recipes etc. so much.

It's very possible to cook good, fresh, tasty, easy food that is sleeve friendly.

People focus on what they CAN'T have. The fact is, if we focus on what we CAN have, it's quite nice to think we might be able to lose weight while eating beef, fish, chicken, pork, shrimp, lobster...not to mention lots of lovely, healthy vegetables.

You may have to learn different recipes, you may have to learn how to cook, or order from restaurants, but so much is possible with what we're encouraged to eat.

Okay my lunch. Is an attempt to show you how to make the best of a bad situation. Restaurant in tiny airport. Choices are salad, fried fish and burgers and a seafood bisque. I can't do raw veggies yet and can't eat a burger patty. It goes down too hard

So I ordered the seafood bisque and I'm basically fishing out (har har) the fish and leaving the potatoes and cream behind. Sometimes we just have to adjust right?
