I'm not anymore either. I usually have quorn but she said to try and have red meat twice a week for the iron as ur body absorbs it different from the iron in veg such as broccoli etc. The only time I have red meat is if I do a slow cook stew so I'm gonna have to freeze a few portions I think x

Thanks badger pink, I'm gonna be at the next one, have booked a days leave as last time I ended up having to work.. You have done amazing with your weight loss so far, they will be really pleased with you... Everything I went through in first couple of weeks all seams so long ago now. Other than having restriction and dumping I don't feel like I've had surgery. My weight has stalled for the last 2 weeks but I found a pair of trousers yesterday that I couldn't get on previously. Ironed them and put them on and they were massive on me. So even though weight has stalled I'm still losing inches. Wish I'd of measured myself at the beginning. Good luck with appointment, and hopefully see you at next meeting xx
