    Butternut squash and red pepper soup 😊
  4. I'm in the UK so it's different but I think they'd rather have the tests done so they can schedule your surgery as soon as everything starts to become normal again. Tests should be valid for a few months providing your health doesn't get worse good luck xx

    Weight more now than before surgery

    Absolutely! I put on 3kg so about 8lbs 3 days post op. It does go away. I'm 4wks out and down 18lbs.

    Surgery pain

    I had no pain from the actual surgery, but I was uncomfortable AF from the gas. Couldn't lie down for about a week and a half. I got codeine phosphate from the hospital but my dr gave me dihydrocodeine which was much better and stronger. I'm 4wks post op now and absolutely no pain.

    Go to meal

    I'm onto soft food now. I'm tolerating greek yoghurt, beans, chicken noodle soup, soft bran flakes/porridge and cheesy mash with gravy 😊

    Pregnancy?

    My surgeon said wait at least a year till weight stabilises, due to not eating enough to sustain a healthy pregnancy. It has been known for people to get pregnant after just 6 months according to my dietitian.

    My 6 month post RNY updates!

    Thanks. I'm really looking forward to speaking with a therapist next week to help me cope without food.
  14. Not bragging at all. I'm quite surprised mine went ahead actually.
  15. I was part of the last group to go through surgery before the coronavirus cancellations. Had mine March 16th.

    My 6 month post RNY updates!

    Congrats! I had MGB March 16th and have only lost 18lbs but i lost over 100lbs prior to surgery. It's deffo going slower than expected and I'm struggling to cope without my coping mechanism of food but I'm staying positive and thinking it'll be worth it.
  17. I'd eat it. Cant wait to get off puree and soft food 🤣

    END OF MY ROPE

    I'm sorry you had a rough recovery. I had a mini bypass March 16th and couldn't be happier. Have you discussed your concerns with your surgeon or dr? Weight loss surgery does change your internal body rhythm so you might need to adjust diet and speak with a dietician? Good luck xx

    Gatric Bypass or Sleeve?

    I agree. I had a minor bleed from one of my port sites 1 day post op but it was easily treated with compression dressings and a tranexamic acid IV. My surgeon said it was due to limited cardiovascular instability. Not having surgery would have been almost certain death if i carried on the way i was going. Couldn't be happier with the whole process.

    Gatric Bypass or Sleeve?

    Complications from gastric bypass are very rare, especially these days with more advanced techniques available to surgeons. I couldn't be happier with my decision to have a mini bypass.
  21. Sounds delicious 😄 i miss bread most haha
  22. Oh we have that here. It's called super rice and sauce 😄 used to take mine to work too but it's all ready to drink protein shakes for a while 🤣
