Hi I'm 6 weeks post op from a gastric bypass and have started solids taking it slow but I feel like i can eat anything now which I feel has happened quite quick I thought it would take a lot longer so I'm scared that I'm not goin to lose any weight, im not eating loads on 3 meals per day with no snack maybe a fat free yogurt and I've started to exercise aswell. I've started to track my calorie intake and wondering what everyone eats I need healthy meal ideas and would like to know how many calories people are sticking to I'm thinkin maybe 800 or below is this ok xx

Ooh that cookbook looks good never thought to look for cookbooks but will get on eBay lol. I've tried omelette with spinach and mushrooms, Beef stew, chicken casserole both packed with veg, Chinese stir fry, jacket potatoes, Soup, and I'm goin to try tandori chickenmade fromfat free yogurt in a wholemeal pitta with some salad. Do these sound ok I do make sure I stick to low fat stuff and plenty of veg but what does everyone do about carbs I'm goin to measure everything aswell like we had to for the pre op diet I find it helps stay on track of calories aswell I think this is were the really hard work begins x

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
