13 stone down but still worried

[yapper1901]

Hi

So I have lost about 13st in just over 8 months but my mum is concerned with what I am eating and
Am just wondering if there is anyone at a similar time frame who could post a day of what they eat
But also include a picture so I can show her

Big thanks in advance

Yeah post opper had gastric bypass
Started at 25st 10lb and now down to 12st 10lbs which minus a lot of toning up is probably my ideal weight
And a weight I haven't weighed since I was 13 and I'm now 29

Could I just ask if you could write a typical days food diary, as their are plenty of people who could see if your eating right. Great weight loss x

There arent really any pictures here, but this thread Gastric Bypass Daily Menus seems really helpful and lots of people through various stages have posted on it too. There are some good recipes as well and they do have photos!

Your blood results would show if you were malnourished, write down what you eat for your dietician and if they are OK with it then who cares what anyone else thinks.

Congratulations on your weight loss you are an absolute WLS hero well done you

 

[happy days]

Iam 12 months out and a average day is
Breakfast - branflakes
Lunch - 3 rice cakes with Philly
Snacks - 2 satsuma and a banana
Tea- small roast dinner or spag Bol

I do alter now and again to boiled eggs for snacks.
