I thought my specialist was conservative.....wow

4 weeks of Fluid is a long time but your over half way there now so you can do it easy!!!!

Skinny cows the best lol

When do you start puree or do you go straight onto solid foods??

. Yes I am starting to think he is a bit hard core I see in America most of the girls start puree at 2 weeks then mushy at 4weeks!

I have to do 4 weeks Fluid then

4 weeks puree then at 8 weeks I start mushy foods! I can wait!!

I found out my sleeve likes chocolate!!! Had a tiny piece it tasted so nice I sucked it till it was fluid lol Been having a milo before bed 85cals it's so yummy I can only drink half a cup!

Did really bad today on the calories I went out all day, doctors, shopping etc and forgot to eat so all I had all day was 1 Protein shake and 1 milo with some Water in between but not enough tomorrow I will get more in! If I am home I can sip all day long have to work out how I will get this all done once back at work! Gosh it's hard work!

At the end of the night I am noticing my tummy is so bloated!! Does anyone else suffer this? I look pregnant!

Dreaded 3 week stall on Monday which was 3 weeks on the dot it only lasted two days lost 600 grams this morning it's slowing coming off!

[steveelea 61]

half a kilo in 3 days isn't slow....that's a massive amount to lose

Can I ask what you are hoping to lose each week? What has your surgeon told you that you will lose?

Yeah bloating and swelling happens its been major surgery with most of your stomach cut off.

I got swelling for many months after the surgery...but I do swell easily.

You are going well and have lost a lot of weight in a short amount of time so be kind to yourself.

I had my 12 month check up yesterday and all went really well.

He said he thinks I will lose about another 15 to 20 and the rest will come off with a body lift so I am really happy with hearing that.

Have about another 20kg to lose until I am at my goal weight so have started back at gym.

Did body balance yesterday...thats yoga, ti chi, Pilates etc all combined and I am feeling it today.....was fun though.

I'm down to 76.7kgs today!

I'm 1.7kgs away from my surgeons goal weight and 2.7kgs away from losing 30kgs!

75.3kg this morning now 300g from surgeons goal and 1.3kg for a 30kg loss

Everything is so much more achievable in smaller goals!

The smaller you get the more noticeable weight loss is. It took about 20-25kgs to notice anything and now a couple kilos makes a difference!

@@steveelea wow that's good news break the 20kgs down into 5kg goals and you'll be there in no time!

Hi everyone. My names Nicole and I was sleeved on 2nd March at Epworth Richmond with Ian Michell.

Was on liquids for two weeks and now on purée for two. Can't wait to be on normal food! Am still learning my limits as I like to drink heaps ;not alcohol!!) and am really having to keep that in check or I bring up the food.

So far I've lost 17kg but that includes the 2 weeks on shakes before the surgery.
