Hi Ellie, glad to hear you are starting to feel better now, the extreme tiredness at the begining does get better as the first few months pass. Fantastic news about your weightloss too, you must be thrilled. I can remember being worried that the bypass wouldn’t work for me and being so relieved when it became obvious that it was.
As for travelling, well start planning that trip ! As you know I have just been on my first trip abroad since my weightloss and New York was fab but busy, busy, busy. I could do up my seat belt with loads to spare and i never realised how much space there was even when the table was down. Lol . x RuthI am soooooo jealous Ruthie I am so glad that you had a busy busy busy time in New york I am so jealous……… much love to you we need to meet up sweetie holidays soon pop over for a coffee xxxx

How do I feel ………………….GREAT

Am I loving this feeling???? ……..Yessss to damn right I am!!!
Am I more mobile???? Yesssss, absolutely!!
Is my back still painful???? Nooooooooooooooooooo thank the lord!
Is the weight coming off???? Oh my god…..ive lost 6st 9lbs is that amazing or what????????Guys I am such a happy bunny these days and I could not have done this without the fantastic support that I have had from the streamline crew and you guys on the forum. I aim to help and support anyone out there who is thinking of having an op or who has had the op just contact me via PM I will do my very best to help and support!
My weightloss has been amazing, my journey so far has had some ups and downs before surgery but all has sorted itself out now.
I went to cuba and back last friday night (the theatre) and saw the Cuban dancers doing their thing I was so happy that my feet were going like the clappers too!!! I wasent comfortable in the chair so I talked to the manager and was offered a more suitable seat for my size what a feeling to be able to go out and enjoy such a breathtaking show! was I embarressed about the seating??? nooooo :nono: A few weeks back I would have been so:embarassed:
All is well with me and I am so looking forward to seeing you all on the 6th december for the xmas meal much love Ellie xxx
Oh did I forget to mention how much I have lost????:wink: well I have now lost 6st 9lbs yayyyyy
:kiss:

MemberHi,
That is amazing. Well done you. I went out last night to visit friends for dinner, I had to tell them before I went that I’d had surgery so they decided that everyone would have the same meal (apart from the desert). It was fabulous and they were so amazed at how I am looking and the weight loss and how easy I was moving (no stick now), that made me feel even better. I feel soooooo amazingly well. I love how I feel now. Told hubby last week “Irene is back” and believe me that is how I feel. Soo pleased for you Look forward to seeing you on 6th Dec.Take Care
Love
Irenexxx

MemberHi to you all
Well done Ms Ellie 93lbs…6st.9lbs. I told you that you’re a STAR. Great about show. You’re a winner and a real inspiration to us all. The update was great as it mentioned everything…well done.
I have to say thank you to MR SHAW SOMERS for making you such a HAPPY BUNNY hope he sees this!
Bye Renn and Secret Santax
Have a great week everyone!Please put your ticker on when you’re ready. How about making it small goals on the ticker if we don’t want all to know our maximum weight. Hang on did I say small goals –6st9lbs isn’t SMALL. I think you know what I mean guys and gals. P-L-E-A-S-E when you’re ready as it’s so Inspiring for the waiters and newbies!
