Losing greater than 8% body weight Pre-Op improves outcomes
Awww I stuck to my preop diet and didn't lose much at all. Hope I'm not doomed. Did have an easy op apart from a bad asthma attack and a reaction to the anaesthetic and was home after 1 day so it's not all bad x

Onederland!
You're doing great! Xx

Mini spasms after RNY?
Yes I suppose it could be. It's not sore just a funny flittery feeling. It's not directly following meals but I guess the food will sit for a bit to digest before going anywhere x

F*ck the foamies
Hey folks. Thanks for your messages. After 3.5 hours of walking around and puking it settled enough so I could sleep. It feels fine this morning but I plan to go back to liquids only for a few days as that was so horrid and I can't understand why it happened. there hasn't been a nasty toilet trip so I'm not sure wtf that was about but definitely don't fancy repeating it. @cheezeater foamies is when you're either dumping through eating too much, too quickly or something too high in fat/sugar. I think something must have got stuck in my pouch as I was eating low fat/sugar and hadn't eaten much. Your saliva etc has nowhere to go so it all froths up and comes back up in frothy/slimy mouthfuls and makes you vomit. I had loads of upper left quadrant pain. Very unpleasant and gross. Xx

Checked packaging - 3.1g fat and 3.2g carb - 105 calories per serving. I haven't managed quarter of it. It doesn't make sense. Hope it's not a stricture. So paranoid! X

How long does it usually take? I've been pacing about the house for 2 hours. Been majorly sick twice but the pain and foamies are still here. It's killing me x

Thanks - im pacing around my house. Nothing is helping. Can't really keep water down. Might call the doctor as I'm getting scared x

F*ck the foamies
So having eaten 3 teaspoons of white fish in low fat parsley sauce, chewing at least 20 times and waiting a minute between bites, I now have crippling upper gi pain and am experiencing the foamies for the first and please god, the last time. What do I do? I feel a bit afraid! X

Stomach soreness
I had bypass on 12th Jan and I get some mild soreness of my stomach. Doesn't seem related to eating/drinking. Just a regular ache so think it's just healing xx

I really fluctuate too - hormones have a big part to play. Just keep doing what you're doing by sticking to plan and it'll all work out sweetie. Every pound off is a step closer to goal and the slower you lose, the less chance of loose skin xxx

Taste changes
I have always had a very sweet tooth but after my RNY, I'm finding things are too sweet. I had a weightwatchers apricot yoghurt and it was sickly by the time I got half way.... x

All ex smokers
I was a heavy smoker and quit for 9 years. Started again due to a very stressful event and quit 6 weeks before surgery. It's hard but I feel the benefits already x
