"Hiya I had gastric sleeve surgery done back in May. I've always been a big lad myself I'm 6ft 1 but always struggled with weight loss, so in May I went to Circle Health at the Alexandria hospital in Cheadle I was 28st 10lbs I had a sleave gastrectomy done and last week I weighed in at 21st 6lbs I've been swimming 3 times a week and everything is much easier and up to now no loose skin I'm just the same as I was but a slimmer version. "thank you and well done ... can i ask were you a fussy eater ? i knowq everything else from my nursing im just trying to find out how some one cope's with being a fussy eater ... by fussy i mean she wont eat any fresh fruit /salad/veg shes a pure junk eater i think shes in for a massive shock you cant blend chips n crips | |||

"A couple of my friends have had this very recently. It's a liquid diet for a short time after any then very tiny amounts of normal food following that, literally a saucer size plate of food. They also recommend supplements to replace vitamins/nutrients." yep thanks i went with her for a pre check where they tell you what they want from you sadly they dont tell you how to do it if you cant eat healthy / fussy eater .. she thinks she will be ok ... going to be a big big wakeup call here somewhere | |||

If you'd like to pm me feel free always happy to help  | |||

"so i aware of the op and the hospital environment side of it but im looking for more personal side of things ... a member of the family is on a emergency op list meaning it will be less than 3 months wait ... the problem she is facing is shes extremely fussy with food after a lifetime of junk .... so looking for what to expect ... i know the guide lines and medical side of it im just looking for the more personal side to see if i can help her " Is this via the nhs? I was under the impression they put you through psychological testing and you have to lose an amount in advance plus do the diet trial in advance to shrink fatty liver etc at that point she will either succeed with those changes or not. Has she had initial consultation as yet? There are ways to get round everything, friends have sucked chocolate buttons etc. She won’t physically be able to eat junk food, her pouch won’t let her process it, it will dump (vomit) of she tries to binge or eat things that are too fatty or gassy. She won’t be able to drink pop (fizzy drinks) and must eat a reasonable amount of protein compared and limit the fibre. She will (should) be given a diet to stick to initially with the amount of grams of each food group she needs to consume and she will need to make that work for her. She’s not expected to eat salad forever but neither will she be able to eat kebabs and burgers and pizzas etc | |||

"She would be best off trying to introduce healthier foods into her diet now before the surgery and she gets a shock. I was supposed to have mine last year but couldn’t on the day due to low iron levels, but it motivated me to start losing weight on my own and changing my eating habits, almost 4 stone down. " Awesome progress! Well done x | |||
