Great Start To May

[Islay]

I am now 198lbs lighter.
I lost weight on holiday!!
Only another 35lbs to go to get to the surgeon set target, but who knows I may add 14lbs to that will wait and see how I feel after those last 35lbs.

God I hope so BM, couple of nasty episodes on holiday as well luckily didn't pass out was just very ill.
I need to constantly monitor what I eat when i eat it and how much - and its when I start to get lazy that problems can occur.
Saying that the weight loss should have started to slow down and it looked like it had but in the last 3 weeks its sped up again - so off to see the team at the end of the month for some food help.

Thank you Tilly I hadn't seen that particular story but many like it.
Its a terrible situation and I know that many will not agree with me but I do feel that some of the cost should be met by the nHS especially if they have done the op to begin with.
Its very depressing to lose the weight and not be able to show off your body. So far my legs arms and boobs are horrendous but good underwear hides it all until I get naked!!

my frien had a tummy tuck after losing weight - what happens if she puts it back on?

I would imagine it will stretch just like before Bednobs
