Debbie, you're doing so amazingly well! 19lbs in less then 4 weeks. I've "only" lost 16lbs in the exact same amount of time.

Thanks lamb, yes I am very happy with my losses, but 16lbs is still a great loss. We all lose at different rates and so far have not experienced a stall of more than a couple of days, so I'm expecting to be hit by a few weeks stall soon; in which time you will probably overtake me. xxx
bypass
you are doing absolutely brilliant my doctor mentioned bypass to me and i am researchin it i am over 22 stones would you reccomend it, have you done exercise and is there alot of loose skin, x

Thanks Tracey. Yes-I would recommend it because it has worked for me. Other surgeries work for other people though. I started of being interested in the band but I have to say I saw so many that had slipped, and read about fills and realised it was absolutley not for me. It's not as drastic as bypass and does a great job for a lot of people but I couldn't reconcile myself to it at all. The sleeve was never mentioned but lots of people have done very well with sleeves too.
I exercised as son as I could get out of the hospital bed. I was in a few days as I was a bit poorly but I started walking while I was in there and never stopped. when I got down to about 17 stone I started running. I love running but can't do that just now because I have a bad back.
I do have loose skin which I absolutley hate. But, as my DH has pointed out tonight it really is not as bad as I should have expected. As long as I wear tights, a good bra and something with sleeves I can even rock a short skirt !
My saddest thing is my face which I have to say looks much older then it did when I was big. Even then, it doesn't look like a face of a woman that's lost nearly 13 stone.
I am much more confident, much happier and much healthier than I was pre-op. And I'm alive which I very well may not have been if it wasn't for this wonderful operation.
Very good luck on your journey hun xx

thank you all for sharing. Whatever speed we lose it at, it's important to remember that Rome wasn't built in a day ! x
