Does anyone make all sorts of noises the minute they've eaten something? Reflux gurgling etc?

I don't know how many ounces but two mouthfuls at one sitting is quite normal for me. I can't eat meat anymore, some vegetables, rice. I have put on over 30 pounds because I can eat biscuits and...

does anyone else suffer severely with eating? It takes me 2-3 hours to eat a cereal bowl sized portion of food. My stomach makes terribly embarrassing noises and if I'm not careful I end up in agony...

Good luck. I had to do the milk diet too, it's tough but you lose a lot of weight on it even before the surgery! I struggle to eat meat at all since my operation, so i've turned to fish, which seems...

That is brilliant advice! Thank you so much x

Actually you're right, i don't struggle so much with cod! Great idea on the recipe front though - thank you so much, i will give that a go x

Hey i'm not complaining, i'm thrilled it's just that i'm really struggling with finding things to eat that don't make me sick:confused:

Hi

I'm 7 months post surgery and have lost 116 pounds so far. However, i'm still having problems with eating. I am sick quite often but the real problem i'm having, and was wondering if anyone...

Brilliant question. I'm diabetic but have been off metformin since op in August. Trouble is now my sugars are always too low (4 or less). Not sure what to do.

I have to say that I have been very unlucky when it comes to hunger, as has the woman that was in with me, we have been hungry since we came round from surgery!! I'm still starving but unable to eat...

Good luck Ricky. I hope you're really pleased with your decision and the following results. It's life changing!

I think it all depends on your local PCT. My BMI was 49 and I was 43 at the time of going on the list. My bp wasn't high (then) and my cholesterol was ok too. It's such a shame that it's a postcode...

Hi. Where are you having surgery? If the message was directed at me, then please ask away and if it wasn't, then ask away anyway and i'll help if I can. I'm nearly 5 months out now and 6 1/2 stone...

Hi and well done! I am almost 7 weeks out if surgery and I'm pleased with my weight loss so far but I honestly thought that I wouldn't be hungry after surgery but actually I am starving a lot of the...

Thanks that's really helpful. I'm not the worlds greatest cook and in fact i don't enjoy it at all, but they are some very good ideas that i can now try. Thank you!

Not really, it's all a bit bland as I am not really sure what to puree/mash other than potato and mash!

Hi. I'm 4 weeks post op and I'm permanently starving. Like you, when I eat it keeps me full for a couple if hours and then I'm hungry again. Wasn't expecting to feel like this! I've been told not to...

I thought it was just me! I had surgery 17 days ago and I'm finding it really hard. I miss food so much - much more than I thought I would. Also, I get hungry which I didn't think was supposed to...

This has been really helpful! I'm 2 and a half weeks post op and while I lost a lot in the first week, I haven't lost anything for over a week. However, I really am not drinking much at all and I am...

Hi. I'm 14 days post-op and I'm sure i'm not doing it right. I'm almost certainly not eating/drinking as much as i'm supposed to but I either don't fancy anything or I'm starving and then drink my...

I am 4 days post-op and I developed RLS yesterday, my first day out of hospital. I can't sleep as my legs just need to keep moving - they feel so weird. It's happening again tonight so I know it's...

Thanks everyone for your replies. I'll stick with this diet as I am now 2 days down so only 5 more to go! Julez I hope we can go through this together as we'll be in together - how cool is that! I...

Hi all

I am having my surgery on 28 August and have had to start my 7 day pre-op milk diet yesterday. I can only have 2 low fat yoghurts and milky coffee, water, vanilla milk. It is torture...

Thanks everyone for your lovely good wishes. I will be keeping you all posted :)

It has been a long old journey but my date has finally come through and I have less than 2 weeks to wait! I can't wait! I cannot imagine for one second, how it will feel to be slim - I've never...
