Well is it now 7 weeks since my Gastric Bypass and I am now down to 92kgs and into a size 18 top and pants.
Considering my previous dress size was a 22 to 24 dependent on the make, not bad.
I have not had any "dumping" as yet but have had to purge a little when food gets stuck. I think it mainly gets stuck when I eat too fast without chewing the regulation 20 times.
Returned to work last Monday after 6 weeks off. Did not make it through the whole work day as my energy levels are still not up to normal.
My food intake is gradually increasing to the 8 tablespoons my dietitian wants me to get up too, I think I am up to a 6 tablespoons per meal. I can mostly eat what I want but it needs to be really soft moist meats etc.
No regrets to date of having had this operation.

Wow it's such different journey to the lap band but in other ways not all that different.
You're doing great. Have you found the www.lapbandtalk.com site helpful? I know that have some bypass discussion groups etc. I think bypass is still more popular than banding in the USA.
Keep us posted on your progress!
