That is awesome Sunshine23! I can only hope for a result like that! I am having trouble being patient at the moment!

I would love to hear more about how you have lost so much weight!

Hey Lou,

I am loosing about a kilo a week at the moment. Like everyone else I was impatient and wanted to loose 50kg in a month but it does not happen like that. I have now steadied my weight loss and my surgeon is really pleased with my progress.

I mainly eat what I want but in much smaller portions (if I want it I will have it) Not everything agrees with me though but you learn as you go along, funny thing is you may be able to eat one thing one day but not the next. I am also a lot more active now, as you loose the weight you will naturally become more active and that helps.

One thing that I have learnt is not to wear a tight bra while eating its like having double restriction.

I will admit that I have gone through the odd bad patch, but as my surgeon has said it is a learing curve and getting reeducated so make sure you keep up with your surgeon and dietician appointments they are invaluable.

Hope this helps, let me know if you need any more info.
