Good luck, you'll smash it

How exciting, it'll be the best thing you've ever done I'm great with public places and holidays, I pick things from the menu and then make suitable substitutes like having a sauce on the side or asking for a burger without the bun etc most restaurants are really helpful I've just been on...

thanks Victoria I didn't keep a diary, but wish I had done! It was tough to start with its a big adjustment to your life but now 11 months down the line, I have settled in to my new lifestyle and finding things much easier. I'm still obsessed with food but now it's protein and sugar content and...

Thanks I feel so much younger too, it's amazing how it has changed my life. It's only now that I realise how bad things were before I lost all of my weight.

These two pics were taken one year apart, I cannot believe the difference! This really was the best decision I have ever made

Yes I've been using the Palmers firming cocoa butter it has helped somewhat but I'm still going to need the skin removed, it's pretty baggy!!

hi Im less than a year post bypass but have lost nearly 130lbs already, despite going to the gym 3-4 times per week everything has gone Deep South! I know I can't have the surgery until 18 months or so after my op but just wondered if anyone on here had had both procedures done at the same time...

I felt so bad for the first three weeks post op, I hated the liquid diet and mourned the loss of food. I'm nearly six months post op and almost six stone lighter and really starting to notice a difference, it's not always easy, my dad died last week and I really want to turn to food when of...

Good luck for tomorrow x

hi all I had my bypass 4 months ago all has been good until this weekend. Whatever I eat is making me feel nauseous regardless of how much I eat. Has anyone else had this? If so do you know the cause and will it pass?

Thanks guys, my local gym have been really encouraging and are letting me take thinks at my own pace so I don't find it too stressful. You're right FeeBee a few months ago I would have stuffed the nearest cake into my mouth but now I'm learning that I don't need to do that so I guess that means...

I went to the gym!! Had a peppermint tea when I got home, I'm usually ok but tonight was bad, hope this isn't a taste of what's to come, I thought I was doing really well

ive got a really bad case of head hunger today and it's driving me to distraction. Any ideas on how I can take my mind off it without eating?

Thanks, you are too, guess we must be doing something right :)

It had crossed my mind that I was stretching my pouch, I guess I'm just worrying as I don't know anyone that has had this done. I have my group meeting in a couple of weeks, I'm going to write down everything I be been worrying about and ask if they are normal or not

im 3 months out and have noticed I'm starting to manage larger portion sizes than I was a couple of weeks ago, no where near as large as pre op but is this normal?

I don't think it is, it was good and frothy like proper hot choccy too

The protein works Big Z hot chocolate is great and gives me a protein boost on days when I may not have got enough in.

I was told no more than 12g of sugar per serving and that has served me well so far. I gagged on the protein shakes so was really pleased when I could progress to protein bars, I've found one that only has 5g of sugar in it and is 20g protein and is delicious, it's combat crunch by musclepharm...
