Hello folks. It's been ten years (last July) since my Gastric Bypass and I am now 60 years old. Just wanted to jump on here to say hi to anyone who remembers me - and also hi to those who don't but find this update in their feed. I went from 118kg to 69kg in nine months. I have been stable...

Hey. Another year and another update from me. Can’t believe it was over 5.5 years ago I had my bypass! I am prompted to come on here today as it is the sixth anniversary of the day I decided to have my life-changing surgery. I am posting a kind of before and after photo of my journey with...

Hey! Does anyone remember me? It has been a while since I was on here ... just thought I would stop by to see if there are any of my regulars still on here, if so how are YOU doing? And also bring you up to date with what's been going on for me. I am now 4.5 years post-bypass. One of my...

Thanks hun! It's a tool, and how you use it (ie the WLS) is down to the owner. It sure ain't a magic wand! I have not gone through all this to throw it away by reverting to a diet of foods which following my bypass will make me extremely unwell and in quantities which will cause me physical...

This is a tricky subject, creating a cover story - It will be three years on 9 July since my bypass and only a tiny handful of people know about the Bypass, but everyone knows I lost weight after gastric surgery. I had an internal hernia repaired at the same time so am able to start off about...

How exciting Lisa! Let us know ... Fingers crossed. Btw, sounds like you are doing really well on the LSD and that you are mentally prepared for the tough journey ahead. But trust me, every step is sooooo worth it. It will be three years for me on 9 July and I feel fantastic xxx

Yes Rose. Your team will need to see your head is in the zone and losing some weight shows commitment from you to your WLS journey. It is hard and there are instances where folks have 'failed' to lose the required amount which has delayed surgery. You will also probably be put on a Liver...

Aww Kirsty that was tough, but well done for standing your ground. I think once your op is done and you are on the losers' bench it might be 'wise' to tell your mum and just prepare yourself beforehand to be as strong as you are now. Wench is kind of right, your mum will worry as she sees you...
