Hi folks. I am nearly 4 years post op and over the last year I have gained just short of 2 stone. I have tried shakes, no carbs and cut out rubbish. I have yo-yo back and forward but just dont stick to anything. Last week I joined slimming world in the hope I would get some guidance and help to get on track.
My brain is honestly set to explode between overload on info for the bypass and slimming world. For those of you that know slimming world - this eating as much as you want just isnt sitting right with me. Then I think I,ve had a bypass so my portions should be smaller and eating less. I read up on malabsorbion and now worry that if I,m not eating enough then I,m into starvation mode.
I,m confused - how much calories should I be consuming now to get a weight loss and why have we got to restrict our carbs?
I am at the stage that food is controlling my life again and I should be the one in control of it.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
