Just wanted to say Hi!!

[Mrs V]

Hi everyone!

I have done the SW plan for more years than I care to even think about!! Lol
I am a habitual fall off the band wagon and gorge myself silly kind of girl :break_diet:, so as a result, I have had a gastric band fitted.
So far, I have lost 3 stone, but as my band was tightened too tight, it got to the stage where I couldnt keep solids down.
I have now had some fluid removed and as a result, I can eat again!
The problem is, that I now have to be REALLY careful with the things I eat and as a result, have decided to come back to the diet that I think is the best!
I cant eat the amounts of free foods that SW suggest due to my restiriction, but I can still follow the plan in my own little way.

So after all that! Please can I join the SW group?? I would love to aim for 2 lbs a week, but anything is a bonus for me!

:welcome: to the group! I am sure the diet will still work for you, despite the small amounts that you can eat. At least the little amounts you will be eating will be good, healthy food. Good luck :flowers:

I asked my doctor about surgery as I was desperate. She said I wasn't fat enough. I seriously considered bingeing until I was. I love slimming world though. Its the only diet I can even remotely stick to and the food is yummy. I bet you really enjoy you first few days of eating. Good luck with the weight loss. You're already doing so well.

Thanks for posting Ladies!!!
Before I had my suregery, I was 21s 7lbs!!! I weighed this when I was pregnant!!! Not a healthy weight Im sure you will agree.
I was fortunate enough to pay for my surgery privately and had conselling before and Im still seeing the consultant every 3 months for a year (will end in April).
I love the SW plan (cant call it a diet anymore!), I am keeping a diary, so that I can still record what I'm eating and make sure that I am following it as much as I can.
Now...green day ideas for someone who cant swallow potatoes?!!! Hmmm cant eat much pasta either, but will think up something for tomorrow.
