I tried a cup of decaf tea with a capful of toffee flavoured SF syrup. I wouldn't do it everytime but it made for a nice change! Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

Hella yes! Hello new weight loss goal! Not sure about the recommissioned (snort, that's what my autocorrect came up with) ceremony but I am TOTES up for some new bling at goal weight. Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

Oh this!! And also being able to get the tray down so that it sits flat, not resting on my belly at an incline! Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm a bit nervous about that too. I took another ring to a jeweler to do some work on it and he butchered it. Very upsetting. Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

These ring guard things are all over Amazon - who knew?? I've ordered a packet so hopefully that's a (temp) solution! Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

A ring guard? This, I will have to Google! Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

Ta, have stuck them on a middle finger which does them feel a bit tighter. Looks weird tho! Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

I didn't even know it *could* develop in adulthood. Please God it doesn't cause you pain or difficulties! Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

Ha! The Irish don't even bother with umbrellas they're so used to it. Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

Zomg, I can impulse buy something in a regular clothes shop!! I am going to have to get a handle on this before clothes shopping becomes a new addiction. Walked into TK Maxx and this size 20 (UK) coat fit me! A little tight but I'm losing so I bought it! Yikes, I couldn't tell you the last time I fit a size 20!!!

Same. I have been on metformin for years and victoza for a couple. In the hospital my BG dropped to normal levels,so no need for meds. Then by coincidence I had my annual checkup with my diabetes endo doc scheduled for a couple of weeks post surgery, so they did a full panel and my Hb1ac was normal (can't remember the number). They told me they wanted to have one last look at me in a year and then they'll drop me as a patient altogether! Yay!! (the official way of saying it is "discharge me back to the care of my GP"). I don't even bother taking my bloods anymore cause everytime I do, they're in like 4.6 or sommit. (UK measurements are different to US but that is bang on normal). I'm bloomin' thrilled!!

I'd start by: - Tracking everything you eat and drink, set yourself a daily calorie & macro limit. Make sure you're not accidently eating drinking too much - Look at incorporating keto and/or intermittent fasting. - Start / increase exercise - Possibly do some cognative behavioural therapy around eating behaviours and thoughts. Good luck! Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

Oh wow, you must be delighted! Keep at it!! [emoji322] [emoji122] Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

Would you not have developed that as a kid / teen growing up? Or did it develop later? Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

That's why the coat should work for me all year around. Irish weather being rain, rain, rain, sun comes out for five minutes, rain, rain, rain... 🤣 Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

Oooh that's pretty too!! Gosh medical ID bracelets have become very stylish. Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

This is something I could experiment with, coz I have a bunch of SF syrups. Never thought to put them in tea! I'll let you know how it goes. Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

Ladies, you have to try scarf styling. There's heaps of turban tutorials on Youtube! Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

I have an awful feeling I've developed a kidney stone post surgery and a quick Google tells me that bypass can increase risk of kidney stone formation. I've been feeling kidney-stoney for a little while now, and yesterday it started to ramp up. So I'm trying to decide do I cart myself off to A&E, although the scan probably won't be done until Monday, or do I just keep dosing myself up with Panadol and try and flush it through my system. That's if it is a kidney stone. Could be a fibroid acting up hmmmmm... Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app

Oh I know someone here in Ireland with haemochromatosis. The Irish also have higher rates of cystic fibrosis and coeliac disease, oddly enough. Sent from my SM-G930F using BariatricPal mobile app
