hi Charlotte, I went to why weight in West Sussex too, and after 12 months I did get referred for wls. I didn't miss any of my appointments and finally ended up going private as the waiting list would have meant my surgery getting scheduled for around the time of my son's wedding! Why weight...

Haven't posted for ages so thought I'd better get my (smaller) backside into gear and let all you lovely people out there in weight loss world know how things are going. I've now lost 5 stone 3 pounds which puts me at 10st 7lbs, still far too high as I'm only 5' 1" and I'm getting a little fed...

hi Sam I was type 2 diabetic prior to my mini bypass and kept taking the meds (metformin) up until the day before my op. Post operative I haven't taken any at all. I did check my blood sugar multiple times per day and found it never went higher than 6.8. I've since had some blood tests and...

Hi Samkisses I'm type 2 diabetic and got the go-ahead for wls on the nhs but went private (in Belgium) in the end as the waiting list length meant the surgery would have been around the same time as my eldest son's wedding. The diabetes made it easier to get accepted I think but made no...

Thanks Anna, I hope next year is as good for you as it promises to be for me - roll on that new job for you too :)

Just want to wish everyone a happy and healthy (and slimmer) 2016. This past year has been a roller-coaster one for me, what with a shoulder op leading to a frozen shoulder, new eyes (well lenses anyway!) and my innards re-plumbed... Add to that a new (wonderful) job, my eldest announcing he's...

I am Sundown, I can't quite believe how happy I am right now. Forget my cup being half full, it's overflowing!!! I didn't realise how much stress I was feeling before I changed job and got back to work, also trying to lose weight without the right tools in place (doomed to failure - again)...

Thanks Loop :)

Oh gosh, haven't been online at all in the last week, stupidly busy at work (learning curve shooting straight up!!) and totally knackered when I got home.... what a fantastic job though :D I still can't believe how lucky I am. The weight's slowly coming off too - I think I'm probably losing...

Hi all, work has been great! Went to my first conference in London on Thursday. I can't believe how well it's going and how lovely everyone is :-D I have been very busy and am absolutely knackered. Have a busy weekend now helping to decorate daughter's house

Thanks Anna and Loop, we've just got to get you a new job now Anna

Hi Sundown, I've decided to have 2 dinners per day, seems to be working so far (as is the laxative at night lol) Hi Lynn, you are right of course, I'm just being very impatient. The first day went quite well, a very steep learning curve but everyone was lovely so I think I'll go back tomorrow haha

8 week weigh in today, only 5 pounds off in the last 4 weeks but at least that's 5 pounds that won't come back! I start my new job today, can't believe how nervous I am....

YAY!!!!!! Thanks Mazza :D

I'm getting there, got a family dinner on Sunday then getting mum on her way back home to Devon in the afternoon. Will have a quiet day on Monday, might try and find some new work shoes though. Don't think the new boss will be too impressed if I turn up the first day with walking boots on haha...

I'll keep mine crossed for you too hun, you deserve that job :)

I'm fine thanks Anna :) I've started eating a little more and the weight seems to be coming off a little faster so I think I'm starting to get myself sorted out at last!!!! Still have no notion of wanting to eat or being hungry though. I've also discovered I don't really like chocolate cake...

Good luck for the interview today Anna :)

Sundown, I'm gonna have to try that :) I'll try just about anything right now! Must admit venison cottage pie does sound good though I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't eat enough. Today is my youngest's 21st birthday and I've had a very small piece of cake, for the first time in my...

Grand news lolly :D
