my menu whilst on my 4 day break!!

Hi all I didnt realise how easy it was feeding my face whilst on my holls, I started with Breakfast: orange segments, 1 slice of bacon with beans, 1/2 slice of wholemeal dry toast. Dinner: we ate out usualy a pub grub therefore I just had a fresh orange and a bit of hubbys lunch. (1st time at a pub grub I had a sheperds pie only ate 2 x mouthfulls costing £7.95) then evening meal : home made veg soup, carvery each night therefore I had meat & 3 veg. and hey presto a loss of 2lb and I felt stuffed each and every day I was sure I had put weight on. There was even a set of scales in the bedroom but hubby had them removed so I wasnt watching my weight every 2 seconds LOL. Phat girl & carol (hopelesscase) once said to me before I had my op "Gail its making the right choice on what you eat" that has always stuck in my mind since, a very useful piece of information Ime sure.x P.S not a great loss I know but 2lb off is still better than 2lb on I say!!

 

[hopelesscase]

2lb is fantastic especially when you have enjoyed yrself loosing it.

Fantastic! It gives hope to know that we can still be normal when away after the op.

 

[Gail-michelle]

Of course you can F/Late, a lot of people who dont know zilch about the gastric bypass, and I dont mean any of us I mean the normal twiglets out there , they are sooooooooooo Ignorant in saying, they think that after the op you can only eat baby food or mush for the rest of our entire life but we know better!! I can eat a gammon steak or sirloin just like they can its just that I dont have chips ect with it any more. So heres looking to the future of all you pre & post op Bypassers.arty0036: Gail-Michelle xx

Fantastic! It gives hope to know that we can still be normal when away after the op.

Hi there,

I was the same on my honeymoon, I had a little of what I fancied and just made good choices the rest of the time.

I also lost 2lbs...

So it shows, sometimes, you can loosen the reighns and still have success.

Life is for living, not punishing yourself.

 

[Gail-michelle]

I totaly agree with you cazbandy. I wouldnt have thought I had lost weight at all as I felt permanantly stuffed. I have since lost another 2Lb this week. (I came back last monday 12th oct). Gail.x

Great news! I did the same when I was on holiday, really enjoyed what I ate but I was careful in my choices as I was only 4 weeks post-op at that point. I am really enjoying food again, but choosing more protein and less carbs and I am steadily losing so I am happy bunny too.
