I'm almost 6months post RnY and have gone from 150kg down to just over 102kg. I've returned to the Middle East as a contractor for a civilian firm working for NATO and as such have access to world class fitness facilities here at Kandahar Airfield in Afghanistan.
I'm using a fitbit along with myfitnesspal to monitor my levels as well as my dietary intake which I'm doing great with.
I'm keeping up with my Protein levels as recommended by MFP base on my activities levels but has anyone used anything for recovery after their workouts? Creatine? Some other post workout product?
I'm doing about 3hr daily sessions with the majority of the time being cardio such as running a 5km on the treadmill, 3km rowing, doing 2km on the elliptical and 50 floors on a stair climber not to mention doing Ab busters. As far as weight training is concerned, circuits mostly...

I've got my appt on the 3rd... Hopefully they'll be ale to figure it out soon

Dumped yet again... That's everyday now for the past five days... I'm eating slow, following all the rules about avoiding certain foods, spacing out my Fluid intake properly... This just sucks!... What makes it worse yet is having my friends and family seeing/hearing me go through the process and the expressions of angst and sorrow on their faces breaks my heart.

Today sucks!!!!... I've been doing so good and then for the past few days I've been feeling as if this was the biggest mistake I could have done. I don't see a change even though I've lost 60+ in 45 days. food used to be something I enjoyed, I loved to cook, be creative in the kitchen and now I could care less.
food now is just something I dread, I'm just so tired of all of this

Suuuuuuuuper!... So this evening in a rush to eat I ate my food faster,... Much faster then I should have and you guessed it... Dumping occurred.
Silly silly move Mr. Potato Head!... My poor wife who had never seen me dump before was concerned so I took this as an opportunity to teach her as to the finer points of dumping.
The good thing is that it wasn't the food as te moment I felt better(which was about 5 minutes later, the benefits of being a fast dumper) I was able to return to my meal and finish it off without any problems once I slowed down.
Oh well, live and learn ... And learn some more, or again

Punk Rock Mama, you are some kind of wonderful my dear, thanks for sharing and I'm sorry for your loss.
The pharmacist said I have the go ahead and just to keep an eye on things.
Btw, the sexy night made for some awkward positions but it really helped me gas today, my breathing is deeper and I slept like a baby without any meds at all!

I do the same thing... It's a huge morale boost seeing the numbers drop even it it's only a pound a day that I've found myself addicted to the scale.
Truth of the matter is not how many numbers come off the scale in a day but rather how you feel after all you can't control the scale you can only control how you handle every new day of the new you.
At least that's what my wife tells me

I'm not really counting calories as at the moment I'm not getting anywhere near my limit but I am watching for things like sugar and such. I ended up getting a skinny frapp with sugar free French vanilla... Hit the spot perfectly!

Same here, I feel as if I'm going through the motions yet I'm not really hungry as I should be but I'm forcing myself to eat every 2 hours as recommend by my nutritionist in the correct amounts. I'm keeping track of my Protein and Water intake through an excel spreadsheet so that I can show trends and statistics to my dr when I see them next.
To top it off it sounds as if my pouch is having a gran finale to a fireworks show with the amount of rumbling it's doing

That's what I figured too and my doctor called me back to confirm that as long as they aren't open im fine to do so... Doggie paddle, not Michael Phelps it... Lol

Once incisions are healed...maybe 2 weeks.

How long before I should start swimming...my doctor released me for "light" excerise on day one but didn't say whether or not swimming was allowed... And by swimming I really mean more like senior Water aerobics and floating... Lol
