    Oooo, tbh protein shakes are good for convenience, but I gotta learn about my protein sources to stay healthy inthe long run. I need to weigh things and etc. I definately calorie count everything though. Dumping syndrome sounds like a neat deterrent for weight gain, but wouldnt want to get an episode of it in public though.

    Hey thats great! Mine just came today, I had it before so I know it will taste good. I ordered the cheaper 1kg from amazon. I just noticed youre from the UK haha. What hospital are you doing it with ? I am with Parkside hospital in Wimbledon.

    Post op a couple of months down the line, I hope to be eating properly so my protein comes from solid foods and not protein shakes. But then again, I dont know what my eating habits are gonna be like in the future so... I am glad to hear dumping syndrome doesnt happen to everyone, guess I'll cross that bridge if it comes.

    I ordered a protein powder called Phd diet whey which has artificial sugars in it (I think!) , I have a feeling I wont react to it as say to something like slim fast which is higher in sugars and carbs. But yeah, I guess we'll see how it goes...

    Yeah, I think my dietitian mentioned diluting things that might be sweet, so diluting the slimfast might be the way to go. Althou I have now ordered a protein powder called Phd diet whey (chocolate) which is lower in sugar. I guess we will both see how it goes

    Do you think the use of drains and the lovenox injections post op is for patients with a bigger BMI?

    ANyone have Polycistic ovaries (PSO) ? Did anyone find after surgery , the weight loss helped with symptoms such as excessive body hair or other symptoms? I wonder if PSO makes you more prone to dumping symdrome since carbs and sugar is already problematic?

    Hi I heard gastric bypass is slightly more effective in weight loss compared to the other surgeries? Is this true? During the honeymoon period, I am hoping to lose 14 pounds per month. How long does this honeymoon period last for?

    Has anyone undone their surgery by regaining ? I am really scared of this happening . I am having a gastric bypass done at the end of Oct and I am self funding. I heard once u stretch your stomach by overeating, it wont shrink back. This would be the worst case scenario, undoing the hassle of surgery and wasting all that money. Thoughts?

    Energy Drinks?? Bangs?

    I want to believe this. As I love my fizzy drinks.

    Hi everyone, I guess I do have unrealistic expectations for weight loss. I think I got too excited over the honeymoon period thing. Numbers are important to me, so not seeing the scales shift will probably get to me...I know that has to change. I think once I am post op, I will be more appreciative to not see it as a race.

    Yes I am more of a junk food eater. I know the bypass wont kill cravings but will help with the malabsorption .

    Is it best to avoid carbonated drinks because it stretches your stomach?
  15. dal101
    Mine has many options. Is varys to liquid diet to solid diet, you can change it per day. I am going to try 1000 cal diet option where its bascially 1 slice bread, 2 x eggs, veg for every meal with yoghurt as a snack.
