Hi Kelly. I'm new to this site too. I'm having my bypass at end of May. So far, it seems everyone is different. I've not heard you can't eat carbs though. I know if you eat too much sugary stuff you get what is called dumping syndrome where you feel sick, dizzy light headed and flushed. Have you got a date for your op yet? Where about in England are you from? Bx

Hi, yes everyone is different... you can eat carbs they jyst ask that u stay away from fried foods... sugars, fried foods, can cause dumping..its no joke... it sucks to get dumping...but getting gastric is a life changing decision so make sure u r ready...good luck...

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
