And so it begins...Kirsty's journey to a sleeve!!

Iv done low cal diets before an did well but i think the milk diet b gd to try especially as its the one im going to choose for pre op. Its gna b really hard especially as i havent got to do it like we would if was doing it for pre op. B easy to jus give up. Im dreading it lol but if i go hospital in 2 weeks and im no where near my target it doesnt look good. Iv read some people say when on tier 3 they made them do a trial at milk diet so i jus gotta pretend im doin that and i cant quit lol. Probably gna b some grumpy diary updates over next few weeks lol. U gna give em a call today? Im too excited for you im desperate to see if u got a date so god knows how u must feel haha Kirsty xx

If you don't stick at it and hit that target no op n you will suffer for life that's what's keeping me going I understand you will be grumpy I don't blame you I believe you really want this so you will make your target there's bit room for messing about now you have to mean business I'm going to pop home now and check post if I've not heard nothing by Monday when post comes I'm defo going to call I just feel stupid ringing soon soon haha xx

Accepted. Its nice to put a face to my buddy lol. You have a lovely family. Our post man comes about 3 in the afternoon lol useless. Im actually excited to start tomorrow now jus wish it was the real thing and my op was in 2 weeks haha. I hope i will b able to lose the 9lb in 13day. Then after i need to stick to a heathy low cal diet cuz dont wanna pile it all back on. Can u give me some examples of what u had when on low cal diet to get to goal. I did one before where i had a special k bar for breki, weight watchers meal for dinner and weight watchers soup for tea. Thn some fruit and diet yogurts as a snack. Worked out about 800 cals a day. Duno if to do that instead or jus go for milk diet. Its so hard to eat so little while still got normal stomach and get hungry least after op i will have the tools i need to add to my will power and new lifestyle.

Thank you you do too well my post man comes on a morning so don't think I will be getting a letter today would like to read about what they think of this hernia I really think you have a shot at hitting your target I ate about 500-600 calories a day till I hit my target was very very hard but proved how much I wanted this op I got used to it after a few days when I went back to eating 3 meals my stomach was used to the small amount I'd ate so not eating as much as I used to that's why I'm not gaining in between appointments it's still a struggle but i can be good when u put my mind to summit I hate failing lol but the weight was falling off xx

What did you eat on a typical day to hit bout 600 calories. Im like you i hate to fail. Jus wanna get this appointment out the way so i can relax a little but got to make sure i dont gain weight between appointments. I really believe its not going to b long for me now so thats got to keep me motivated. This time in 2 weeks i should have a lot more answers and excitement.

Some days I would have a weight watchers ready meal a day calories already counted there for you with a brown bread roll to fill me up a little or I would make home made soup count all the calories I've added and usually a big Pan full is under my calories a jacket potato and I weigh out my filling so it's within my calories put the app on your phone and look up the calories for things you fancy it's hard to stick to but you could be at your target in a week that's worth it if it means you getting surgery hope I've made some sense I got over a stone off in less than a month with having a few treats now and again too xx

Im a little nervous and wish i could of done it with out having to do this. But as long as i get to the goal thats what matters. It will b hard over weekend with hubby an kids eatin round me but as of monday they will all b at work n school so it should b easier when im on my own

Kirsty xx
 
New stage today and sending positive thoughts - my pain is much better, and as other have said, it's easier to control also. I cannot mislead - when in flair my fibromyalgia is still agony - but is otherwise far far more manageable. All the best to you xx
 
Thanks ladies. I will update tonight or in the morning on how my trial milk diet is going.

Kirsty xx
 
Well iv decided to go with 2pints of semi skimmed milk and 3 yogurts. So far had 1.5 pints and 2 yogurts. Must admit it been a tough day jus seems un-natural not to put any kind of food into your body. I jus want to eat but im gna stick with it. Iv not been starving tho. Find its harder and night time. Forgot to buy some bovril an i quite fancy it now.

Hiya im feeling much better today yesterday was jus a shock to my system i think. Lets see how i cope tonight as i find that hardest. I sent hubby up asda last night to get some bovril and that really helped was like having a cup of soup. Felt more like food than the milk. Had a peek at the scales this morning an iv lost 2lb since yesterday. Gna try not to weigh myself now till friday.
