One More Bits the Dust

One more kilo gone, now down to 75.6kgs. Yesterday it was 6 months exactly since my operation and I have lost over 32kgs. I have lost over 40 if you count the 10kgs I lost prior to the surgery.


I have been to a couple of Christmas functions this last week and am pleased to report that I am not overly tempted by the foods that I would normally have pigged out on.


I try and eat mainly the turkey, a little ham, a couple of prawns and a baked potato. Ham does not always sit nicely in my stomach, I think it is the salt content that makes my stomach bubble and gurgle. The dietitian did tell me early on, that pork is one of the hardest meats to digest and that I should stay away from it if possible.


This week I am one of the guest speakers at my surgeons seminar for people interested in having one of the 3 surgical options. There will be a gental man that has had the banding, a lady that had the gastric sleave and myself representing the gastric bypass.


This will be my last blog until the new year. I do wish you all a Happy, Healthy Holiday Season.


Don't over do it. Remember 'You eat to live, NOT live to eat'.
