    Food Before and After Photos

    I wonder if its culturally a NY thing? (Katz deli pictured) If you try it, have it sliced very thin and by preference I always cook and eat it hot
  4. I didn't experience pain while overweight. None that i can remember. However the amount of things I can casually do now is astounding. I run (when needed) and rarely lose my breath, walk endlessly without a need for breaks, jumped rope, go up & down stairs like its nothing, any seat on a flight will do, random hiking trips, etc (but I gave up formal exercise - health reasons πŸ˜‚) Good Luck 🌈
  5. I develop stricture and torsion of the stomach also. I didn't fancy the idea of going in for a dilatation every 6 weeks. So i didn't even think of it as a viable option, nor did I let anyone persuade me into "giving it a try". Nah. I chose conversion and 1 week later had it done. Conversion to RNY resolved the issues completely. I was given lovanox shots immediately after surgery so not sure why you have to stop them. Good Luck 🌈

    Testing

    Yes it is! I always said I knew I was never going to back out of surgery after the barium swallow test because it was so terrible for me If I could endure and complete that, everything else would be easy as pie πŸ˜‚
  9. Nearly the same as with my VSG, but every case will be different because specific revision techniques will vary surgeon to surgeon.

    Help, I am Hungry!!

    Protein water? Sorry but at 6 days post op you may have to power through. 😒 Next stage soon ❀
  22. Fats. Fat has more cal per gram than both protein and carbs (9 vs 4) And for most fat doesn't trigger cravings, instead suppressing hunger which is why Keto is such a booming lifestyle. Honestly each macro nutrient has it's merits and purpose for optimal health which is why food fit for human consumption contain them. I think water & alcohol are the exceptions (real geniuses correct me if I'm wrong ❀) As you move towards maintenance more research is warranted to decide what your long-term lifestyle will look like. Here's a research journal to consider (oh and I'm sure you'll find plenty on either side of the argument) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/14672862/
