    Poundland Protein Products

    The shots are like a smoothie-like liquid, and is not too bad, but the bars I've tried so far (peanut and paleo chocolate) are actually pretty gross. They have a really odd bitter aftertaste. It's still worth trying for the price, but personally I wouldn't rate the bars. I've stocked right up on...

    Ms R Simpkin's Post-Op Diary!

    I don't actually have any photos of my meals, but I'll start taking a few and post them here. I find that the amount people can eat seems to vary quite a lot. There's people who can eat considerably less than me, but then there's also people who can eat more. I remember reading that someone's...

    Ms R Simpkin's Post-Op Diary!

    Hi Wayne. Sorry, I haven't been around much recently. I occasionally hop on and lurk around for a while, but rarely post any more. I really should start updating again. The injections were the ones they give you after you've been in for an op operation, to help prevent blood clots in your legs...

    Poundland Protein Products

    I was in Poundland yesterday and found these near the vitamins and painkillers. I've only tried the shots so far, and was surprised that they don't taste like cack! I'll let you know what the others are like when I try them. I know not everyone like to use the protein products, but for those...

    Ms R Simpkin's Post-Op Diary!

    Not had the best day today, food-wise! There was a bit of a family crisis and I had to go and babysit my great niece and nephew while my niece had to rush off. So, all I had to eat was whatever she had in. Which turned out to be white toast, crisps and tea with a biscuit. I tried to make some...

    Ms R Simpkin's Post-Op Diary!

    Long time no post! Sorry I haven't been very active here recently. I've still been lurking and reading, but haven't updated much as things have been pretty smooth sailing so far. I made the tradition from purée/mashed food to soft food over the weekend, and am slowly introducing the odd...

    Ms R Simpkin's Post-Op Diary!

    Sorry I've been quiet for a couple days, I've been visiting the in laws, so I haven't really had chance to update. I've just been eating the same kind of thing as normal. Mostly fish, scrambled eggs, mashed potato. That kinda thing. Everyone had a chippy tea while we were there, so I pinched a...

    Haha. Yeah, it basically is, but I guess I'd have to blend it! From what I've heard cabbage is quite hard to digest as it's quite fibrous and stringy, I think if I did have it, it would have to be mush :p

    Oh, that might work! I think I'll have to try that, thanks!

    Is it weird that I'm craving cabbage? Like... A lot! I mean, I've always really loved cabbage, but of all the things to be craving... Hmm, only a few more weeks before I can tuck into a nice bowlful of steamed white and sweetheart cabbage, maybe with a drizzle of gravy! Oh god, I'm salivating...

    Ohh, that's a fab idea! I never even thought to freeze fresh fruit. The amount of fruit I've chucked because it's past it's best, and I could have just frozen it! Thanks, chick!

    Thank you, ttbpns! So, the scales today tell me I'm down another 4kg! That's not just one week, though. It's been almost two weeks since I last weighed, I forgot last week. Oops! Still, I'm very happy to have lost 4kg in just under two weeks! I managed to get a really good amount of protein...

    So, yesterday I discovered that Weight Watchers do little tins of tuna in coronation sauce that are pretty bloody yummy! They also do one with sweetcorn & mayo, and tomato & herb dressing, but I haven't tried them ones yet. They are on offer at 2 packs for £3 at Morrisons. You get 3 tins in a...

    I've just eaten possibly the oddest dinner ever, but it was so delicious! I had a couple of tablespoons of refried beans with a drizzle of Mr's low fat tikka masala sauce and a bit of cheese melted over the top. Sounds very odd, but I reeeally enjoyed it!

    Ms R Simpkin's Post-Op Diary!

    I'm sorry, I can't really help there as I haven't had that while eating, but I do get a pain in my chest when I have bad acid. Could it be that? I do get a strange sensation a little after I've eating, kind of in the upper-middle of my stomach. I think it might be the food moving through the...

    Ms R Simpkin's Post-Op Diary!

    Yeah, I agree. I think it has a lot to do with how big or small your surgeon made your pouch/ sleeve. I've noticed on here that there are people who are eating less than me, even a lot further out than me, but I've also noticed that there are also people who are eating quite a bit more than me...

    Ms R Simpkin's Post-Op Diary!

    Yeah, I am on the app. It's pretty annoying, isn't it? I seem to be managing a little bit more than that, I think. I usually have about 2-3 tablespoons of some kind of purée that I've made, and about 1-2 tablespoons of mash. I don't always eat it all, but some days I do manage all of it...
