New&Improved

If you want to change something do it nobody else can do it for you. Take responsibility for yourself and your choices. You can do it if you put your mind to it. Weight loss is 90% mental

Travel more. Start a family. Get married.

Yes it's not just a diet it's a whole new way of life.. a lifestyle

Still can't get over how America ltd you leave the same day or even the next day...

I had the regular BYPASS was sore a few days but now over 9 months out with no complications..

Wow okay most ppl are on liquids just before and after surgery

Not me.. lol I'm glad I lost my man boobs.. totally gone...

Are you going to have surgery? If so you'll be on liquids

You'll hear ppl talking about stalls being very common

Yes definitely.. I don't even recognize myself

Not really maybe some walking just ate low calories and like no carbs or sugar for months; I personally was not hungry for months and lived off shakes and yoghurt... Lost like 20lbs a month on average

Are you not staying in the hospital??

Welcome to the RNY club ?

Excellent work... I also had bypass and loved it and 9 months post op and lost all my excess weight ?

Yep same gave some to mates

Pick yourself up and get back on track you can do it

Well I'm a man and much taller but I still made my goal and even went below my goal within the first year... But I had RNY bypass.... It is possible you just have to be vigilant...

I've been through it all and out the other side now in maintenance

I personally chose the RNY as my first and only surgery and it has worked flawlessly for me

Yes wait until you get the first weigh in and stuff before you worry about weight loss... I personally changed my diet from 2 months before surgery just for my own piece of mind and it worked out for me even the surgeon said I got a headstart on my weight loss and I've done really well lost all my excess weight... I personally just woke up one day and started on shakes and was only on like 500cal Max for a few months...

Never worry about losing too much it will slow down before you know it and you will wish it was quick again

You could be bloated from gas for a week or more

Well I've heard all kinds of versions about what insurance companies can do or say or change the rules

I had the bypass and it has been amazing for me

I'm in Australia luckily In S.A so no restrictions as such.... I feel it gives me more time to prepare meals and plan meals... I'm only 9 months post op so don't get hungry much but to keep busy I'll binge on new TV shows Netflix and stuff.. Hopefully can start gym soon which will be good... Just need to find hobby to keep yourself busy
