Well
I have now lost 62lb since this weight loss journey began (pre op).
I am three months post op and everything is going very slowly.
There is a narrowing, but over the past week I have not been sick once.
I am managing crackers and cheese (Slendips) for lunch with no problems.
I am only eating small amounts of a main meal -but managing it well.
I am still not eating enough or drinking enough but getting there.
The good news is I have not had any diabetes medication since before the op.
I have 'dumped' a couple of times and quite badly too.
I have had a few episodes of hypoglaecemic attacks 2.3, 2.6 and 2.9. These have all been about a couple of hours after a meal and the Dr is sure this is late dumping even though I have not had sugary foods around this time.
M y excrutiating (spelling!) pain 10 days ago where I thought I was having a heart attack! (drama queen); crushing pain in sternum, sweating profusely, difficulty breathing, severe nausea and vomiting with a mega bowel motion (formed not diorhea (SP)) followed by feeling faint and crashing out for 4 hours has been put down to early dumping -the pain was probably radiating from the baby stomach. Again I was only eating carbohydrate foods and certainly not deserrts x
Any how -I am happy, I know things are going slower than they should but I am feeling a little bit more alert and responsive.
The weight loss has been good.
I was expected to achieve at least a 70% excess weight loss and so far into it i have lost 53% so I am well and truly standing a chance of losing more than the 70% THAT MAKES ME HAPPY.
I have been advised to not over do things and start gonig crazy at the gym as my calorie intake is not too great.
Anyhow I thought I would let you all know x
