Hi guys this is a bit rushed but decided on the sleeve think this is best for me

Any advice appreciat re pre op and post op and the company I have seen is w l s group or cosmetic
 
Hi
I too have decided to have the sleeve as it seemed the best option for me but i am like to still doing my research and seeking advice , I have chosen to use cosmetic Bliss as i have been told many good things about them and spoken to people who have used them

But i too would appreciate any help on pre & post op diets and especially the protein part afterwards , do you have the protein drinks during the liquid stage (apologies for sounding dim)
 
hi Bubbles and Slim, i had the sleeve in February this year. And i luuuurve my sleeve! I also had it with Cosmetic Bliss and i highly recommend them.

I have a blog which you can read if you like (click here). Im also to answer any questions or concerns you might have.

If you're on facebook, click on the little 'f' under my name to add me x
 
Hi Deets

I've been reading your blog which is really well written and very interesting ;-)
May I ask you a question? I'm still on stage 2 (pureed food). I'm having 3oz of food at my main meal times. When you were at that stage did you try and wait 5 mins between mouthfuls? I find this quite hard to do sometimes.
I also have fears that in the future I'll be able to eat more than I should? Sometimes after eating the 3oz I feel I could eat more? Reading your blog about the pizza and eating too much of it, I think my body would soon let me know!!
I only had my sleeve done on 21/05/2011 so it's still early days for me.

hey Lucky,

i didnt wait 5 minutes between mouthfuls because that would have annoyed me haha! What i did do though was have a few mouthfuls, then wait a few minutes. Then again, a few mouthfuls, then wait a few minutes. Sometimes it took me over half an hour to eat - and i was always reheating food!!

I can eat alot more (i say alot but its still very small portions!) now when i compare to how much i was eating on the musy/puree stage - but as soon as you start eating solids, you'll realise you feel fuller quicker, even if youre eating the equivalent amount.

Id like to add, ive still not eaten pizza! All that bread seems a waste of food - but i had been invited to a kids birthday bash on Sunday, which is at pizza hut :eek: Im thinking ill have a starter and some salad though! x

hi i had my sleeve jan last year lost 12 stone so far def best decision i made and i must say i can eat anything including pizza 1 slice if u r lucky lots of foodsfeel me up quickly and told never go bk to food throw it other foods like cracker breads i can eat alot more of xx
 
Deets, don't worry about the Pizza Hut meal. I just ate the pizza toppings which tasted nice and I left all of the crust. No one even seemed to notice. Just a suggestion.
 
I had my sleeve at the same time as Deets with Cosmetic Bliss and its 100% the best thing that I have ever done. I highly recommend the procedure and the Cosmetic Bliss team. I can eat more than at first, but still very small amounts. I have just been on holiday to Malta and have lost just over 2 lbs...now that is a first!! Weight loss and holidays have never happened at the same time for me before, I am really chuffed.
