  1. Well how many calories do you think you're eating? But you do have to train yourself to slow down... It took me a while but after throwing up a bunch of times I had to learn...
  2. Totally hear you mate looking back at photos a year ago of myself I don't recognise myself... Congrats!!
  3. Personally I think it's good to be honest and open communication with your children just explain it so they understand there's nothing to worry about.. Mummy is just going to get healthier
  4. Pretty sure each surgeon has their own rules and guidelines they need you to follow even here in Australia I rang a few different surgeons and each one has their own set of rules...
  5. I've watched documentaries where they are treating serious bowel issues with fecal transplant in humans and it has helped... I feel the bypass has totally changed my metabolism and the way my body now processes food like now I'm in maintenance in eating more calories and still staying the same weight where before surgery I would put on weight so easily... It's like I have a thin persons body and mind now
  6. It is still major surgery and your stomach/bypass will be new so I suggest starting slowly on a liquid diet for even a week plz don't rush into solids
  7. Do you have any set goals they need you to hit
  8. Yes need to look closely at your food intake your calories and stuff
  9. Yes I lived off shakes for months didn't feel the need for food...
  10. Ur surgeon should tell you how many days in hospital
  11. Yea my own decision. Took a few months to get surgery so I started my diet early protein shakes
  12. Maybe I was lucky or I was just very strict and I lost over 150lbs in like 8 months
  13. Sorry don't know who told you to eat that much I was still only on like 500cal for months. I still eat plenty of protein but low calories I only just increased mine at 6 months
  14. Yeah started at 322 now hovering around 165-168 most days. Feel free to msg me if you have any questions or need a friend with BYPASS
  15. Duo switch should lose quicker bit can have issues with deficiencies more so than a bypass as it is more aggressive. I had the bypass and I've lost over 150lbs already
  16. So you got duoendal switch??
  17. I would go for bypass if the sleeve didn't do enough
  18. Well need to know how much weight you wish to lose or if you have GERD etc
  19. Stop complaining okay there's people out there who can't even get surgery either due to insurance or lack of money so be thank full
  20. You need to try other shakes until you find one you like I've been using shakes for months
  21. Yea jeez take it very slow try different machines do it your own pace
