A thread for when Umm Yasmin wants to add marginally relevant comments about stuff



Recommended Posts

Well now I have one of those tickedy-boo things, lads! And to my surprise I've lost 40 kilos since my original Lapband in 2009. Half of that is since my gastric bypass surgery in Oct 18. Actually, maybe I'll reset the ticker just to show my bypass weight loss - it's more meaningful to me these days.

I feel too guilty to start a million threads of random stuff that goes through my head - noone needs that much Umm Yasmin in their lives, so here it will all be in one glorious thread.

Do make one for yourself too, I love reading your posts!

Oh I think I'm all tapped out. I've run the gamut of things I'm going to talk about, I'll just continue to participate in the ones I'm already in. LOL. No new threads.

Here is the trick especially when things come too big/family/value/bulk sized:

Open it over a trash/rubbish bin and pour it out indiscriminately, (stop before nothing's left of course but) and whatever is left in the bag is yours.

Become ruthless on your path to success

Good news is, I'm back on plan today.

I made prawns with a tablespoon of leftover aubergine pesto that was in my fridge. Steamed up some brocoli and Brussels sprouts then when the prawns were nearly done, put the veggies in as well and stirred it all around with the bit of pesto. It was actually pretty tasty. Soz no pics.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
