Hi..
I'm 36, 5ft 3 and weigh 134kg..I'd like to lose 34 of that.. Still overweight at that but I can make that work and I would look awful at 10 stone!!

I fly to prague tomorrow and have balloon inserted on Monday..

Thanks everyone.. balloon is in.. Feel like death lol..
On day 3 and not much is staying down Tbh.. Only thing that hasn't was a bowl of mashed potatoes I had at the hospital
Now back in the hotel trying hard to eat and finding it very hard since we are a foreign country and shopping is very hard

Had mushed banana last night and it stayed down for a couple of hours before showing itself again.. Just hoping my body us taking nutrients from the food while it's there..
Having an issue with trapped wind also..
But hey ho
. Early days, can't wait til it settles and I can get on with it

So I started 3wks ago and lost 3kgs
Starting weight with balloon is 133.1kg would like to be down to around 100kg before its removed.. (70lbs/5stone)
