Well done want2b3! I thought I’d posted the above yesterday but something went wrong!

Hi, How are everyone doing as we must be hitting 1 year anniversaries now? I’m loving the transformation I’ve had this year and all the new things I’ve done! Swimming the Serpentine must have been the highlight of the closely followed by completing a mini triathlon! Oh and finally being able...

Hi all, I seem to have plateaued now and don't seem to have move from about 12 1/2 stone but I'm a size 14/16 and am happy! It's completely transformed me as today I swam a mile in a lake, although I've always swam whatever my size there's no way I'd ever have got a wetsuit on! Tomorrow I'm...

Well done @Want2b3. That's a fantastic loss! I had my 6 month check up on Wednesday and I've lost 39k which I was amazed at as I thought I'd only lost about 5 stone but it's actually 6 1/4! I'm now in a size 16 and people I haven't seen for ages only recognise me because they see my children...

@paulam I don't think I'm eating much more than a couple of months ago

Hi all, Well done @jeff20stone I love cycling and did 28.5 miles on a Friday and 29miles on sunday I love living on the south coast as we have some lovely beaches to cycle to! How is everyone else doing? I've just weighed myself and have lost 5 stone!! And am out of the 14's (only just!)

@AndyMc1978 i wasn't set targets either, I was just told to make sure I had protein, veg then a small amount of carbs. 4 stone down from when I had my op which I doesn't seem to be as much as everyone else. So worry that I am eating too much/the wrong things but I am losing weight and it is a...

I will ad that I was 4 months pregnant when I got married I've not been eating particularly well recently but it hasn't been in the quantities that I was plus I'm doing a lot more exercise. I am going to get back to it properly although think I need to get rid of my colleague as she doesn't...

A few people have said that, but hubby won't go for it! I've been swimming twice this week and have also downloaded the couch 2 5k app! I have a friend with an Apple Watch and I get notifications of her activities and I feel I need to compete with her I am playing my first hockey match in...

Hi all, Been back in the pool 2 nights in a row! I'm also going to be playing my 1st hockey match in 3 or 4 years on Sunday so that could be interesting! I saw my Mother and sister in law on Sunday and they both said I now looked about the same size as when I got married so last night I got...

Well done everyone. I've made a decision not to weigh myself at home anymore as my scales don't seem to have moved. People are telling me how good I am looking and my clothes are feeling too big! Since my holiday I am worried though that my head has gone and I'm eating the wrong things but I'm...

I feel cold lots too. I never used to wear a coat but rarely leave the house without one! I feel like I've not eaten very well since coming back from holiday, but today I've cooked a batch of chilli and hoping to get better. I'm not eating the quantity I was but I'm wanting things like crackers...

I found some pictures going back of me and have put them together the photo in the middle is me in August 2014, left August 2016 and right on Saturday

Hi all! Just caught up after my week in Tobago! I'm so glad I had my surgery before I went as losing the 3 stone I think I felt better lying on the beach in just my cossie and also wore a bikini to go in a waterfall as was with some people that didn't get put of easily I put a photo of me at my...

Well done @jeff20stone! People told me yesterday I was looking like I'd lost more and that my face neck and shoulders were looking slimmer!

Well done @paulam! I have an Apple Watch that tracks my activity and I can even swim in it and it counts the lengths for me! I also share my activity with a friend so I'm always trying to beat her which helps too! I'm on countdown to my holiday now, 1week to go but am worried about the flight...

Next week I am off to Tobago for a friend's wedding, does anyone have any tips for surviving the flight? Before my Sleeve I would have had haribo, starburst etc to keep me from the boredom, although my longest flight before this has only been about an hour! but also eating the in flight meals...

I've been trying to swim at least twice a week but fitting it round committee meetings and parents evenings make it difficult! I've managed to borrow some hockey kit from someone so going to train with the team I played for until about 4 years ago! Feeling like I can go back now I'm smaller...

Well done @jeff20stone This week I've seen loads of people who I haven't seen since before the sleeve and it's a real boost hearing all the comments about how great I look, I've even been told by a couple of people I look younger!

Just seen the surgeon and he is happy with my progress, I've lost 14kilo some the op, 21kilo since finishing tier 3 and 25kilo since I was referred in November 2015! The dietician didn't really say much I had to ask about protein etc but even then I've learnt more from talking to you guys than...
