Hi im new to this site but was recommend by a colleage who also had a sleeve. I had my op in July and at the moment have lost 4 1/2 stone and i feel amazing. The first couple of days were hard and i thought id made a big mistake but once i got home each day was an improvement. Next week im plucking up the courage and starting swimming again which i haven't done for many years. I feel so confident and have even been out on a couple of dates. Wls has been the best thing to happen to me my only wish is that i had been brave enough to do it earlier. Xxxx

Have asked myself the same question over and over since I had my sleeve.
The weight loss is fab even if a bit much so soon after surgery but as long as you feel okay and are eating a balanced diet then there should be no problem. It does slow eventually as body adjusts so don't get down when that happens its normal.

Thank you all for your kind messages
Not only did i start swimming last week but have now signed up at the gym with my son as he also needs to lose weight. He is very supportive but as Im losing he is getting more down about being large. So we are on a mission. Xx
