Hi Emma, Sounds like you are doing spectacularly well! I had my 6 week check-up this week and one of the nurses said that they 'we were expected to loose 10kg' by this check-up. No-one had mentioned how much was expected to me previous to this comment. So sounds like you are well on track. Celebrate your loss and good luck for the future. Cheers,

hi and thank you all for your lovely replies, i am very happy and am allready glad i had my op
i would do it again in a heartbeat, as after only 3.7 st i feel great, much healthier and loads more energy!

genevive57
To be honest i am completely at ease with my new diet now, its second nature to not drink while eating and naturally go for the healthier option, this op has deffinantly helped the issues i had in my head, and i have come to terms with my eating issues, i can now leave plenty of food on a plate and be done lol

I tend to only have 2 meals a day, mostly because i have still to experience hunger, although i dont know if i will ever get that back.

i tend to have a crackerbread with pate or daryleigh for breakfast
and some form of meat with 2 actify chips and spoon of veg for main meal

I do snack somedays which i suppose is more head hunger, and i would have either a bit of cheese or some rice pudding, or some baked beans, trying to substitue what would of been chocolate before my op hehe.

Not to say i havent been naughty once or twice with a piece or chocie but my tastes have genuinely changed and im not so fond of sweet things these days, i can not take sugar in my tea, and couldnt eat a chocolate mouse these days.

I wish you all the best from you op and cant wait to hear how you are doing x
