Hi

My name is Janine and I had Gastric Bypass surgery late last year, in Oct. I have struggled with it in that I can eat a small meal after my surgery and I am not sure that it is all working properly. I don't understand how I can eat far more than I expected. I am sitting on a stalemate at the moment. I haven't lost any significant weight and feeling disillusioned at the moment. I would like to know what I am doing wrong if anything and if not, then how do I navigate these issues to place myself in the position that I can lose weight again.

thank you for reading,

Janine

Hey Janine,

Thanks for recommending me here, there is heaps if information. Crazy that you aren't feeling restricted. I seen Lou eat the other week and she was picking at food like a bird and was so full. She was explaining to me that everyone's RNY feels different and some people have blockages etc. have you had anything like that?

I'm only 5 weeks postop, but I can't eat the amount they say you should be able to handle. Right now they say I should be able to have 1/2 cup of food. I'm lucky if I eat 2 bites of food. I feel extremely full and feel sick if I take an additional bite. Have you spoken to your doctor?
