so i am 59 pounds down and would ideally like to lose another 14 pounds.

I’m from the u.k, iv always used stones and pounds, there are 14 pounds in a stone.

It’s been 1 year today since i had RNY bypass surgery, i’m down 4stone 3 pounds, would like to lose another stone ideally but seems like i’m stuck at this weight have been for the past 4 month, can’t budge any lower, so happy with my loss though.

sure does suck, feels like imgoing through my cupboards like pacman lol. im going to ask to be put on a continous HRT so i dont have any bleeds dont think i could be dealing with that again after 6 years of having non, just need to stop these munchie days. Thanks

Hi yeah i havnt had a period since i was 34, i have neurosarcoidosis and i have it right next to my pituarity gland and hypothalamus so my hormones are non existence or too high they are all over the place. I tried HRT a few years ago but i got really bad migraines from it but i need to try more different kinds as ifeel i am cracking up and the symptoms are driving me insane.

I got this a lot and it was trapped wind as i later found out, i started taking windeeze when i got the pains and it helped. Hope this helps with your pain, as it might be the same.

Hi does anyone get a time when they are always hungry and can eat more. I don’t have periods anymore but there is 3 days, must be before i am meant to have my period where i am always hungry and crave carbs and chocolate and i can eat so much more than usual. Does anyone else get this ? Any advice ? I am currently waiting to be put on the correct HRT as i feel i am cracking up.

Remember slow and steady wins the race. Dont rush anything you are doing amazing, Sometimes it takes time for your body to realise what is happening and takes a while to catch up, you will have stalls where you dont lose anything for weeks and get so disheartened but just remember it will all come off in time. And well done getting off the oramorph.

same here iv lost 4 pounds this week .

excellent well done ? xx

Had surgery 25th january weight was 15 stone 5 pounds and today i’m down to 11 stone 10 pounds, over the moon. Another 24 pounds to go and il be where i want to be.

Hope your feeling better soon, try and wean off the oramorph, it doesnt help with your mood, and the sweetness of the stuff is no good.

Hi, im just over 4 months out from RNY and i also have been in a stall for around 6 weeks then iv just lost 2 pounds was devastated thought i would of lost alot more, think my body it just trying to hold onto the weight. My hair is also falling out alot, only noticed it this past month or so, iv had to upgrade my hoover to a shark antihair wrap as all the hair was wrapping around my other hoover and i was forever unclogging the brush bar. Wish i could lose weight as well as im losing my hair lol.

Hi shrink&Grow hope your doing well after surgery and recovering well. I lost 2 pounds im gutted as its coming off so slow im down to 12 stone, want another 2 stone off ideally, havnt spoke to any of the dieticians yet but if this carries on i. going to have to.

@WanderingHeart i’m nearly 5 months out. yeah i think my body is holding onto it also ??. @catwoman7 think i probably need to be drinking more aswell and il give it another week or 2 then i’m going to ring my team see what they suggest. Thank you both xx

yeah i track my food every day, i’m having around 900-1000 calories a day is that too much ? The only activity i do is walking and stretches at home.

Iv been in a stall the past 5 weeks, don’t know what’s going on getting frustrated now, hope this isn’t where i’m stuck at, i’m still wanting to lose another 21-28 pounds, iv lost 44 pounds so far since january and now i’m stuck.

Thank you, makes sense i went through early menopause at 33 and havnt had a period since then but i get the headaches and everything else as i used to before i was due my period so it probably could be that why i’m eating more. My hormones are all over the place as i have a pituarity and hypothalamus condition and they don’t work properly. See what today brings. thanks everyone. x

I had my surgery in january, so nearly 5 months. i would normally feel ill if i ate that much, but i’m not feeling satisfied today it’s strange, after iv ate something i’m still feeling hungry like i need more food. Usually i could only eat half my omlette and i keep the rest for lunch but after i ate the half i was still hungry so ate the rest, i thought i would of felt ill after it but i was fine.

Today i have ate and ate and i’m not feeling full, i had an omlette for breakfast, then a protein drink, some chicken and veg curry with wholemeal rice for lunch, a plum for a snack, then for tea i had cod with salad, then tonight iv had pineapple, a greek yogurt, and some cottage cheese but i still feel hungry, iv been drinking fluids incase i’m just thirsty but it’s not, i know it must be all in my head, but i’m just not getting that full feeling. Any advice please.

Hi all, great to have a uk feed, as most are from America. I’m in the north-east had my RNY at sunderland royal with mr small on january 25th 2021. Iv lost 42 pounds so far but been at a stall for the past 4 weeks, don’t know what i’m doing wrong, any advice ?

i’m fine now had my surgery in january and can take all 12 tablets in 1 go.

They felt like they were stuck in my throat no matter how many drinks of water i had to try and push them down, and took a while for it to clear before i could take the next.

This was my main problem after surgery, i got some meds put into liquid form by my pharmacist but it took me nearly all day taking my tablet form taking 1 at a time every few hours.
