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

That's one of the reasons I chose a bypass so dumping will scare me in to not eating sweet things although some people can eat anything without effect but everyone is different I suffered with gallstones a few years back and every time I ate something sweet crippled me I wouldnt wish it on my worst enemy I would rather give birth than go through with that so I try and think of it like that I guess I've been through some **** in my time I'm prepared to deal with anything thrown at me my mam said to me the other week when I told her I was worried about surgery she said everything you've been through nothing should scare you and she's right I've been where you are and believe me it goes so quick xx

I know what you mean bout going through a lot this should b easy lol i think i will go for the sleeve think im jus waiting for reassurance from the surgeon that its the right choice. People have great success with both procedures so no matter which i choose if i work with it i will succeed. Im feelin a bit agitated and havent been sleeping well. Iv not been to toilet for 5 days now its really making me feel bad. My diets been gd an iv drank plenty so dont really understand.

Only you will know what will suit you apart from the doctors of course lol and I really think you've researched your options to make your decision I've never been good with the sleeping I know how you feel maybe it's your body still getting used to the new diet maybe try some movicol to help with things it really does make you feel sluggish not been able to go to the toilet xx

I usually take something to help with sleep but iv come off it while im going through the stages at hospital dont wanna b on nothin else apart from my pain meds. Iv taken something and its helped a little but need to try agen tomorrow. It does make you feel sluggish dont it. I bet your waiting by the phone or letter box waiting for your date. I would be. If was me id call monday and see what the list is like as they will of had plenty of time to process everything by then. Im really dreading this fridays weigh in. Im expecting a 2lb gain judging b what the scales av been sayin all week. Its not gd cuz iv stuck to the diet but if i do gain its not the end of the world iv still done well iv lost weight every week for a while which is a miracle for me im usually up one week n down the next. 2 weeks and 2 days 2 hit target if im not within 2lb of target by next friday im gna do 1 weeks milk diet to give me a boost and it can b my trial run. Sounds like im going into a game on the cube haha

Well im not looking forward to weigh in tomorrow im expecting atleast a 2lb gain. Iv been quite good all week so its a little disappointing but i will jus have to work harder next week. Its funny cuz this week iv been so active so would of thought would help. Never mind. See what the scales say tomorrow but im preparing for the worst.

Just keep thinking positive at least you may know the reason behind no loss if you haven't been to the toilet I keep thinking it's too early days to be expecting a letter or phone call I'm not sure how long people wait I think your doing great so no matter what the scales say tomorrow is a new day xx

Well im gutted 4lb on i jis dont get it. Thats put me 9lb away from target. Theres no way i can lose 9lb in 2 weeks. Think gna have to do milk diet. For 2 weeks. Still not been toilet much so i know thats not helping. Maybe the 4lb loss last week was not accurate. Who know. All i know is i need to lose 9lb in 2 weeks. Impossible.
Im always a last minute shopper aint bought a single thing yet lol

Never mind Kirsty just keep thinking positive you can do it this will just be a kick up the bum to knuckle down for the next few weeks have you thought about doing a low calorie diet that's what go me to my target you've made changes to your lifestyle so that's an improvement no matter what the scales say xx

I dont think iv got the patience to b calorie counting id rather do the milk diet for a bit its simple to follow. Im jus sick of trying so hard and it gets me no where in the long term. Thats why i need this op. Im tired and grumpy today. Think im gna go shoppin later an stock up on milk and fat free yogurts then start the milk diet tomorrow xx

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
