Hi Will Morrisons is the only place in Darlington that I have been able to find it and yes, they only do Strawberry and Raspberry. Usually I would only have had the strawberry, but the raspberry is gorgeous and the strawberry isn't as tasty. The writing of 'No added sugar' is on the neck of...

Bet you can't wait Paula. So pleased for you. xox

Hi JoJo Can I just how you have been getting on with the sleeve please? I think it will be the sleeve I have on the 26th of March. Thanks Chrissy x

Hi Judith Welcome to the site. I hope you enjoy it and can get some good tips and ideas. I see you are from Darlington. Did you have your op at the Memorial hospital? Also, we have a meetup group every other Saturday morning, if you would be interested to come along and meet others going on...

It could just be lighter life diet does not have everything it should have!! :) xx

Pollybree, can you send private messages on here? If you can, let me have your Facebook name and I can add you to the Darlington Bariatric Group on there. Only just put it on there and need to get some more local(ish) people on it. Chrissy :) xx

Well done. I hope mine is as good when I get it done. xox

Hi and welcome to the forum. I had the balloon. I only had it in for 3 months, as my body didn't like it at all! I had sickness for 24/7 for the whole of the 3 months. I lost 5 stone (70lbs) in that short time due to sheer starvation. I couldn't eat or drink anything without being sick within...

Have you all had the bypass? Or are there any sleevies on this thread that have felt the same after their op? xx

In Carol Bowen Ball's book 'Return to Slender' She says about the trouble she had with bread and also not to over cook pasta, because that can get stuck too. I think it is foods that become sticky, which bread would once it gets wet and also over cooked rice or pasta would as well. But everyone...

You are expected to get nervous....lol. But you will be fine. You can start counting down the days now!! :) xx

Hi Pollybree I am at Darlington. I had the test and had a machine here for a few months. But I was actually taking it off in my sleep, so it has gone back now. They may give you a machine to use for one night and it records how many times during your sleep you stop breathing. If they think...

Hi Benrese I think it will be the sleeve. They had said the bypass, but there may be complications when they get in there and after doing some research and reading 'sleevies' on here, I think the sleeve would actually be the better option for me. The fact that I am so willing to speak to...

How many Slimfast's are you having a day? Are you having anything else during the day? x

Glad you asked this question Lottie. I have been wondering the same for after my op. Thank you. xx

I totally agree with needing therapy after having op. I have just had to have a balloon removed 3 months early as I was having such a bad time with it. I lost 5 stone in that 3 months due to starvation, as my body was rejecting the balloon and everything I ate or drank I was bringing back up...

Hi Ginzeh Yes, I feel totally normal again. I had it removed under a general A. As soon as I came round the sickness had totally gone. Don't let them put you off..... You get it taken out NOW!!! I couldn't tolerate anything, including fluids in the end and was being sick 3-4 times a day. I had...

Well hello everyone....... All over with, balloon out and sickness has gone! As soon as I came round I knew I was going to be sick free! I feel amazing for the first time in 15 weeks! Every joint and muscle in my body hurt today, sore throat and sore stomach, but small price to pay to get rid...

Thanks Chris. I haven't eaten since yesterday lunch time and I was still being sick at 4pm this afternoon. I can't wait for tomorrow morning. Taxi booked for 6.15am. Got to be in there for 6.45am. Think I am first down. So should be home in the afternoon, I hope! Catch you when I am up and...
