  1. My surgeon says no issues with coffee just watch the sugars and milk been using straight coffee in my shakes since day 4 post op
  2. Prior to surgery you're meant to get psychologist help and learn all the changes before you have surgery okay.. I did and I'm doing well..
  3. There's numerous factors on how people lose weight.... Plus you need to get lots of protein and water From day 1.. You need to watch your intake of bad foods..
  4. You got surgery for a reason and that's to get healthier and to curb your eating habits.. You should have been prepared for these changes before surgery...
  5. I'm on my post op liquids just on water and shakes
  6. Dont have a recent full body pic but those two photos are 3 months apart and 78lbs down. I was blown away when doctor showed me my original photo he took from 3 months prior to surgery... HW 322 CW today 245 GW 190. Appreciate any comments
  7. BLOODY OATH (Aussie slang) Of course I can't wait for to be able to go out and meet a woman without being judged before I even open my mouth!!! I want to be able to have options when the time comes! I want to find a woman that deserves everything I have to offer if she has big tits great love curves!!
  8. Mine are sticky little white patches one fell off already...
  9. Yeah since about day 4 post op I can drink a fair amount but my thirst is because of my kidneys mostly... Still have to be careful just to take smaller mouth full at one time but still easily getting in 100oz a day plus shakes.. Still much less than before surgery...
  10. Starting to feel better. 9 days post op.. been home 48hrs so I'm sleeping much better Just felt like checking in today with my weekly weight loss. 75lbs down in the 10 weeks I've been dieting. highest weight 322. Current weight 247lbs! finally got under 250 looking forward to hitting my next goal of 200 currently on chewable Bariatric multivitamin got from the hospital before I left and got b12 under the tongue on special too! drinking plenty of fluids throughout the day and shakes & will try some soft puree starting at day 14 got myself some high protein yoghurt to try !! My stomach likes to rumble at random times of the day.. But overall I feel I'm going well with no major issues! My surgeon Is one of the best in the country he even trains other surgeons!! The private hospital he used was amazing I felt like a king being looked after 24/7!! 7 days in hospital All covered by insurance *I hope I can give others looking at having RNY some hope and confidence to see how well I'm doing!!* any questions appreciated take care MIKEY
  11. Well that's good if I can do it no nurses needed
  12. My surgeon Is very busy and like 2hrs away so I'm curious how or when did people remove their Patches over those inscisions?? I have 6 individual patches over the holes from surgery 9 days ago I shower everyday without any issues.. When should I remove them or should I go to a nurse or doctor to get it removed??? Or can I do it myself they just look like little holes I can't see any stitches just little holes underneath? They were changed in the hospital once already but I think they're meant to be removed soon? I can't get through to my surgeon he's very busy.. There's no coloring or blood or anything the patches look clean and fine.. Thank you.
  13. That's 20lbs a month well done
  14. Yep you gotta go hard or go home I didn't go through all the pain for nothing ?
  15. I was in bed sore for days before I could walk..
  16. Hey guys how's everyone from October surgery doing? I'm going well actually 8 days post op besides major pain first few days I'm adjusting to my new life and new stomach which likes to rumble randomly lol Still got my bandages over the incisions I'm just on protein shakes and water and sugar free cordial for now but will be nice to get something with texture soon. Surgeon said minimum 2 weeks liquids then I'll be trying different things like hummus and yoghurt or puree veggies I'm drinking plenty of water and shakes with ease just take my time. one thing I have noticed Is water fills my bladder much quicker going to the toilet often.lol I understand may still have gas and fluid from surgery inside and it will take time to empty.. I'll be tracking my intake and my weight loss again now I'm home
  17. Thanks and it's great to see and be below that 250 Mark. Next stop 200
  18. Why did they do sleeve if you had reflux already???
