I just ate 3 slices of tinned peach. OMG it was heaven! just hope I don't get any late onset dumping! :/

 

[Flickalicious]

Thank you I'd like opinions... thinking Mother's Day gift?

Was it in juice or syrup? 3 pieces should be alright

 

[nicola1723]

Juice and I washed it under the tap as grape juice is high in glucose. I was extra careful lol x

 

[princess4d4]

looks beautiful flick would be an ideal gift for someone

 

[nicola1723]

Tried cucumber tonight. Puked up. I was sooo enjoying it too

 

[Flickalicious]

Aww no Thats crazy!! Have you tried raw courgette?

 

[nicola1723]

No I think I might've just eaten too fast x

 

[nicola1723]

Ate a bite of a child's size ham sandwich, granary bread. One bite was enough. It stayed down but I felt mega full! My husband had a full on cream tea!! My head was jealous, my tummy not lol

Just had my first solid meal ( mashed) had 3/4 of a ramekin of low fat chicken curry with 1/2 a tea spoon of rice. Chewed for Britton and left a small amount but went down really well. Have gone from a size 28 top and 24 bottoms to both being size 20. 6 weeks post op on Tuesday. Happy! X

 

[Flickalicious]

Wow, thats a step in the right direction for you Well done! Did it stay down the whole time?

I had my check up today. The hospital scales added half a stone to my ones at home. Gutted

Stayed down with no problems but I did eat really slowly and chewed loads. So far so good. Different scales will always come up with different figures. Don't worry to much as long as you use same ones and they are going down that's all that matters X

Wow That's amazing! How are you doing that?? I bet you feel amazing Audra

I can see the loss and the scales are telling me so but my clothes size hadnt changed yet. Well, I can get my butt onto clothes that wouldnt do up previous but all the ones im used to wearing haven't changed. Jealous

 

[Flickalicious]

True, a pound or 2 out maybe but half a stone
The consultant was impressed with my loss, said its extremely fast so soon and to try not to lose so quickly or I may bounce back and end up putting weight back on. He wants more of a steady loss but still didnt give me a target weight. Shocked, I thought I hadnt lost enough. Going by hospital scales ive lost 21kg....

That's a tiny amount Nicola! Did you feel hungry after much time at all?

That's all positive. You watch I'll stall at some stage and your be on a roll. Steady is always best and we will all do thing differently. Its not how we get there , just that we do! X

I never feel hungry I have to force myself to eat!

Glad you're consultant is happy with you and hope you feel happier! X

This is why I'm keeping away from the scales and weighing once a month as I'm sure things will even out

 

[nicola1723]

I know. I need to do my own therapy on myself lol

 

[Rainbow1233]

Mine lasted 4 weeks!! I just kept to the diet sheet and hoped for the best. It is frustrating tho.
Hope yours won't last Thant long.
