Hello All.

[DEANO76]

Hello to all,

My names Dean and im from Kent.

I am on the forth week of the soup preop diet. Im going in on Tue 24th for a gastric sleeve at UCHL. My surgeon is Marco Adamo.

Starting to get excited now. Only problem i have at the moment other than being hungry and physically week is that i only sleep for about 2 hours a night now where my brain wont switch off. So far i have lost around 25kg on the preop diet.

Hi Dean,

I am a fello SELkent person. Based in Woolwich but having my op (sleeve) at the Whittington Hospital in north London in a few weeks. I don't have a specific date yet but was told it should be within 8 weeks (eeek!).

Good luck with your op at UCH !!!

Hi and welcome

Welcome Dean; I'm also a sleever but I am constantly stunned at how much people can lose on the pre op...25 KILOS???? That's like four stone!!!!!!!!! How on earth can that happen? Wow!! I lost 7lbs on my pre op!

Good luck with it all.

 

[DEANO76]

Prob due to the fact that i weighed almost 39 stone before i started the pre-op diet and how little im eating.

I am supposed to be having 4 weightwatchers soups, 4 yogurts and half a pint of milk. but all i have been having is 2 tins of soup and maybe 3 yogurts and a couple of coffees, prob less than 600 calories a day + exercise. Its hard work but it is worth it. I worked it out the other day i only had 340 calories in a day. At the worst case scenario i wont have had 50400 calories i should have had for a normal man
