bypass daily menu -

Thanks ladies. Yes I'm an avid user of my fitness pal. I track my weight loss, inches lost and everything I eat. Most dieticians recommend we don't pay much attention to the scales or calories etc but I like to know what I'm putting in my body now, before when I was healthy eating I would do a lot of guess work so this way I know I can't fool my self. So far it seems to be working. I'll reassess if it ever becomes a problem. It is encouraging to look at previous weights/measurements and see the numbers go down too :) x
 
I do my fitness pal about once a week and am always surprised by how low my calories are. I had a day when I thought I had really overeaten, it was 600 cals! Increasing (or should I say introducing) the carbs has been helpful for me, only one black-out spell in the last few days,

B - 1 egg
L - wheat and white wrap, 1/4 small tin tuna, chopped onion and pepper and a squidge of mayo
D - 1/4 of yesterdays left-over cheese and tomato pizza, some lettuce and a bit of coleslaw
S - apple, 2 tasteless rice cakes
 
Breakfast - weetabix bar
Lunch - olives chunky chicken lf salad cream
Dinner - raw baby carrot, lf Philly, chicken, olives
Snack - roast edamame beans
 
Ladies you are all doing amazingly well.

I have felt a bit of a fraud following you these last few weeks and not able to contribute..........but received a call from the hospital this afternoon and I am to get my bypass nextWednesday!!! Blooming eck - nothing like been surprised. I discussed it with my dietician last week and he said I would get at least two weeks notice!

Looking forward to continuing to reading your menus and getting even more hints and tips. Xx

Hello! Dear me didnt realise I hadnt posted for 3 days! I've been so busy what with working nights and my new market stall! Food been going well. Carbs were a bit high the other day but have evened it out last two. Took the kids to Adventure Island fair ground last night and I am so so pleased I went on every ride with them!! Something that I couldn't do before! The kids loved it and it was that little bit extra special for me. Also looked at a photo of me taken queing for a ride and looked at it when we got home. It's the first one I've seen since surgery and I couldn't believe the difference! I will try and upload later. Few things stressing have returned but I have rose above it and not given into the the fridge comforting me or cigarettes! I am staying focused.
Looking forward to my weigh in tomorrow!

Good luck Annie for you op! Everything will be fine! Not such a bad thing short notice less time to think about it haha.

Glad you enjoyed your break Chrisa!! As the wine was flowing, I take it that you can drink wine without dumping? Is it different drinking after the bypass for you than before??
 
Well I went to a school reunion last night, wouldn't have gone six months ago especially after walking in my school sweetheart scooped me into a huge bear hug - six months ago his arms wouldn't have gone round me and is have broken his back! As it happens I didn't flinch at every hug and didn't feel like it was me that was the elephant in the room! Had a couple of drinks (vodka fresh orange) over lots of ice and sipped slowly for a looooooong time and went for an Indian I had a starter and a teaspoon of a couple of other bits didn't feel bloated or piggy which is always good lol
 
Good for you mayamoo.... Must be a wonderful feeling realising that you aren't big anymore, and meeting all your old schoolmates again. Sounds like you had a great evening xxx
 
It was lovely to see some old faces but there were some absent friends that made me appreciate everything #RIP xx
 
Aawwww mayamoo that's brilliant, a really good NSV to go along to a school reunion and feel comfortable with everyone. Glad you had a fantastic time.
Xxx
