Well done you!!! What a rough time you have had christinamarie, but you sound a strong lady, and if am sure things will work out for you, if you did it back then with being in an awful place, I am sure with your hubby and family and friends support this time round should feel like a walk in the...

Hi all who's having their op in jan 2015. I had my sleeve 3rd jan 2014 (a year tomorrow!!!!) and absolutely LOVE it!!! I am nearly 9 stone lighter (hopefully will be 9 stone when I weigh myself tomorrow) gone from a size 28 to a size 16 and feel fantastic!!!! I did my LSD last year over...

Hi all, I watched this morning, and actually e-mailed in to say some people do have positive experiences, and it was hearing negative experiences that made me keep putting it off for about 5 years - and in which time I had a large PE (a clot in my lung) that could of been fatal, if I had of had...

Wow!!! Well done you!!! Hope things are going well for you. Xx

Just wanted to see it in "black and white" that i am 8 stone down today, and just checked my BMI and am now only overweight!!!! :-). Feeling great!!! Would still like to continue to loose about another 2 stone, but it is slowing down now, but I know it's possible!!! Love my sleeve!!! Hope...

I know that feeling!!! Feels fantastic doesn't it??!!!! Although mine weren't in a sale!!!! But have NEVER worn skinny jeans before!! How life is changing!!! :-) Love salliebeth xxxx

Never thought of that!!! I'm really hoping to get to a size 16!!! I'm an 18 at the moment (was size 26-28 pre op) weighted myself this morning and I have lost 1 lb, so any loss is better than a gain - or even a stall, so fingers crossed!!!xxx Love salliebeth xxx

Well done, that's fantastic!!!! Feels good doesn't it??!!!!!! Although must say I'm having a bit of a stall at the moment, but trying not to focus on it too much, just keep thinking how far I have come!!! Hopefully the body will kick start itself again soon - or I'll kick myself up the...

Hi thebear, yes as far as I have found it is just baked beans I have trouble with, and it seems that I am ok if I have them with something else, ie beans on toast, or as part of a meal, it seems when I have them on their own they give me trouble!! Never had any trouble with them before my op, I...

Hi Donna66, I am certainly no expert, but I was sleeved on 3rd jan this year, and from reading threads on here sugary and fatty foods appear to affect bypassers more. Although I now eat a " healthy" diet, plenty of protien, low calorie, low fat, and small amounts, I can eat most things, but...

Wow!!! Looking fantastic!! Well done! Love salliebeth x

I totally understand!!! I have 2 kids 9 year old boy, and 6 year old girl, and I think they were the main reason I kept dilly dallying!!! I kept thinking " what if I don't wake up" I spent loads of time before the op doing things and spending time with them - just incase I didn't wake up they...

Hi there - sending a BIG HUG!!!!! I had a sleeve on 3rd jan 2014, but I first visited the hospital dietician 5 years previously, and had been visiting throughout that time- I was just SO SCARED of having the op, I just kept postponing appointments!!! In the meantime I had a large blood clot on...

It will happen sooner than u think!!! Hehehe tell hubby to hold on tight!!!! Xx Love salliebeth xxx

Thanks!! Must say the size 16 jeans were a bit snug, I'm a bit funny and wash new clothes before I wear them, so once I had washed them they were slightly more well fitting!! But they weren't uncomfortable, and have shrinkage room!! I got a top from primark (a vest top) to wear at the...

I think this is a great shame for you. I had a sleeve on 3 jan 2014, My hubby was uncomfortable with my decision for surgery to start with, but he has been the best support!! I was uncomfortable telling friends and work colleagues to start with as I didn't know peoples views about WLS and...
