My area says total defill for flights over 4 hours due to everything expanding at altitude. My niece who is long hall says her uniform has to be a size bigger as her tummy expands during flights. I don't think a band would be a good option for your job. But if it were your operation of...

Hi Denise, you are looking fab and have done so well since your surgery, much better than I have, but then I have been living on sugar products for the last 6 months or so. I got a taste for biscuits then chocolate then everything. Nothing makes me dump :-( I so wish I was a dumper, I know it...

Thanks, yes I have been on facebook more, as when I am away in hospital it is easier from my phone, and I have started playing farmville again to occupy myself when times are bad. I don't know why I am having such a long mid life crisis, I guess I need closure and at the moment I still have so...

Thank you for worrying about me Mrs Tickle, and others, Becky Lee refered me to this thread. I have caused worry to so many people and still am to my poor mum. I wasn't online very much while in hospital, and have been in a couple more times since. The bed situation in Cornwall is cronic...

Hello Miss Pink Panther, welcome to the forum. I have been a bit busy and away from it for a while, so missed your post. I hope your appointment went well, and you are a little better informed now. I had my bypass in Treliske 7 months ago tomorrow, and it was the best thing ever to happen...

Yep I have been eating for England and out to do wrong. I have put on about 5lbs instead of loosing and my new trousers (with a zip and a button instead of elasticated waist) are feeling the pinch. :cry: I have got to get my head around this op. I am thinking about food all the time and...

I do it in the mircrowave, as one egg is so small to get a pan our for LOL. I am going to try my first omelette tonight. :eek:

"Happy birthday to you" Have a great day, I hope the sun is shining on you xx

You have been doing so fab Tickle! You are keeping up a good record of losses. As liggie said you are going to get there way before boxing day. You must be so pleased with yourself. And good luck with the new job xx

I said to the dietitian I had suffered dumping and she poo pooed it saying you can only do it after a bypass. BUT. I think maybe its not official dumping, but it is a sugar rush and yes it can happen and you feel awful. I too thought I was dying, my heat rate was so fast, and the sweats...

'Chatting up doctors' and 'hob nobs'... How come the girls always lower the tone on a thread, and it gets back to food? ! Congrats at becoming Obese Jed, my surgeon reckons I will finish up at obese, I want to be overweight !!

The nice guidelines I think are BMI 40 or 35 with serious health problems, but many PCT's have their own criteria. Some have moved the goalposts to very high BMI's. But don't let that put you off asking, you have to start somewhere, and your health problems maybe a big factor. Please go...

I must admit being fairly newly opp'ed, I do wonder if people feel better! When I see someone on here with fantastic losses, I do type, 'wow you must feel like a different person', or even 'WOW you must feel 100 times better.' Maybe I will change when people start asking me that. Some of...

So you have a thing for men on horses :D Still haven't thought of anything to add to mine. I am a bit in front of you, just over three years till I snog a Mountie!!

The bar in our signature, that shows things like weight loss, time to operation etc. You can set them up for anything birth of baby, time to holiday - the world is your oyster. Just click on someone ticker and it will take you to their site to set your own if you want to. x

HA HA Jed even Mevagissey is 'up country' for me being at Lands End (well nearly!) Not Cornish though, I am just an incommer who loves it here.

And when you do 'GO' you will loose a weight in one go! I am the same, 2lbs in 10 days, they say it slows, then we will have a leap down those scales (fingers crossed)

Hi Shy, Welcome and well done in finding this great site. I wasn't far after you on 4th August, so we are at a similar stage. So how are you doing, pain and food wise? I hope you have had a good 6 weeks or so since the op. 20lbs in the first two weeks was huge, so your body is just...

Enjoy your last supper Brian! It is OK afterwards though, just a little of what you fancy while watching the fat and sugar. Today I had mini wrap pizza for lunch and turkey stirfry for dinner, so all is not lost you will get there soon, and hey the 23rd will be the start of a new life for...

Hi Butterfly, some of us wear our own knickers, some of us wear paper ones and some start in knickers but end up in the buff! Some also have to have a catheter fitted, so obviously no knickers there. There was a recent post on it, which is what Sarah was referring to.
