Thank you both. The harsher the better I think. When I sit down to eat I do totally forgot about what i might be doing to myself and now I feel very guilty because the only person I am harming in all that is myself. I have stuck to mashed up fish and eggs but haven't been so good with water...

So tomorrow I will be 3 weeks post op and I have to say that moving on from liquids has been haaaaard.... I started off with scrambled eggs and fish pie with yoghurt but became lax very very quickly and have been nibbling on spoonfuls of rice occasionally and spaghetti hoops mixed with tuna...

Congratulations Mindy! Onwards and downwards! Well done on the weight loss so far! Xx

Currently sat enjoying the sunshine! Weight loss seems to have slowed down to a standstill over the past few days although according to my fitness pal I am not drinking/eating anywhere near enough so that's probably the reason why. Trying to get as much protein liquid down as I can but over...

Its been a week since I had the surgery and i have lost i think 7 lb post surgery! Might be actually 10lb as that's what this website says but i write down somewhere my weight on the day, either way, a loss is a loss! I know every week won't be like this but am feeling pretty chuffed right now!

No issues yet, it is a bit sore when i cough in the port area, scars have started healing nicely. In meeting a friend for a catchup today and wondered if i could have a coffee but happy to get a hot chocolate or tea if not! I went to the cinema yesterday and my when I normally go im first at...

So it's been a full week since I had the surgery and whilst i haven't counted my weight from before the pre surgery diet I do know that from surgery to now I've lost almost 7lb in weight! Very happy today, I have been weight myself every morning and I know i need to stop that but I'm just...

Thanks so much for the advice, I'm going to venture a little further out and buy some liquid vitamins today! Also got an email this morning regarding my first fill appointment for the 28th April which is very exciting! Hopefully i should be feeling much better by then and ready to start feeling...

I had my surgery this month (last week) and feeling upbeat, seem to be recovering well, ready to get the weight off for good! Best wishes to everyone else on the WLS journey xx

Thanks for the advice, I think its best I stick to milkshakes and watery soup in the case, but not overdo the liquid and pace myself. Is it ok to take the large vitamin tablets though? I didn't get chewable ones and have some that are about the size of my fingernail! Definitely don't want to...

I didn't think of it like that so thanks for the advice! I've been very good today and plan on being good for the foreseeable! I guess I just thought the potato will just slide on through without bother! Should I be worried about the amount of liquid too? Water is going down fine and I dnt want...

Hello all, a few days in and feel good, some pain when I try to turn to quick in bed and a bit of wind, my scars seem ok but I'm very conscious of the port scar as that's pretty bruised. Not feeling hungry and forced a protein shake down my throat yesterday with some broccoli and stilton soup...

Hey all, made it through the surgery, staying the night in the hospital as I was last on the list and the nurse said she didn't feel keen on a long car journey home! Can only have water but my throat is very dry... Onwards and upwards to a new me!

Thanks for all your replies, I've lost about a stone using the milk diet but in the past I used to binge and purge and that is why I agreed with my consultant that the band was the best option for me to stop me binging. I guess I am worried about completely having messed myself up internally...

Hi everyone, I'm Ana, I'm booked in for.surgery this week, terrified that i haven't fully followed the liver shrink diet. Nervous about the surgery, nervous about. How active i will be once I come round and get back to work. How much time off did people have?
