Been about a year since we both had our surgeries, thought I'd check in. Last few months the weight loss has slowed, but admittedly that's also because of bad habits sneaking in, however after 51 weeks the numbers are; started at 454lbs. down to 262lbs, a loss of 192lbs.

Yeah, pretty much whatever I want. There are certain things however I avoid as they're too dense or expand in the stomach. Good example would be potatoes, have to be mashed or already soaked in gravy to make sure they're soft enough, otherwise they'll fill me up too quickly.

Just to let you know, down 80lbs now.

Well after 10 days I'm back to work, 10 kilograms (22lbs) lighter and already onto soft food.

Doctor said I've bounced back quick, and other than the odd bit of diarrhoea when I eat something I shouldn't - doing fine.

Feel better than when I went in already.

Hi there, thanks for the words of support. Other than diarrhoea every couple of hours, I'm doing fine.
