Hi girls
So 2mw is a month post op!
I'm feeling ok getting used to the new living but my stomach seems to disagree.
Every time I eat afterwards it makes horrid noises and feels like it's going nuts.
I also feel sick a lot of the time which is annoying.
Most nights after tea I end up laying down for the rest of the night.
Also valentines day I'll be 6 weeks post op and hubby wants to take me out .. I'm not too sure as I think it's pointless as I hardly eat anything .. What's everyone's opinions??
Also how is everyone doing?? X

Hi mrspplus3, im just 1 week post op so everything is new to me. But i seem to be doin pretty well if im honest. Ah i wud go for it. Theres loads of variety on menus start with a soup if u's r goin 3 course. Or just go for either a kids menu or light bites on menu. U could ring in advance for them to send u a copy of menu to see if its worth goin before actually goin nd orderin food then not eating it x

I'd say make a decision nearer the time. At 6 weeks post op I had a few Christmas nights out with my work buddies, I tried to choose carefully from the menus. I managed really well but very small amounts. I transitioned to solid food really well though and haven't had any issues with particular foods or any dumping so it's been relatively straightforward.
I think it's quite an individual thing though and what one person can do at various stages is very different to another.
See how you feel and check out the menus before to see if there's anything suitable.
Hi, things are good, how are you?
I'm 9 days post op all pain seems to have settled now just getting bored of purée already haha! X

Hi all....I am sorry to have not updated my diary for a while. Things here have been a bit difficult. My husband had an operation which has left him immobile so we are struggling a little just to get through the day at the moment. I am doing fine on the 'soft food' stage, I seem to be tolerating most things I am trying which is good. I am a little concerned that I still have not felt full but I am also not feeling hungry so I am still just monitoring amounts and making myself stop eating when I think I should have had enough if that makes sense. Constipation is a pain still and I am finding myself tired by lunch time most days but I am coping with a few nana naps! I had my B12 injection today which I hope helps with the tiredness.
The great news is I am now two sizes smaller than the day I had surgery which is great. The weight seems slow at coming off but my shape is changing constantly.
I hope everyone is doing well xx

Hi everyone im doin great!! Sorry ive not been in lately just gettin bk into a routine with kids nd stuff. But all pain has gone. I cant believe im 2 weeks lost op tomorrow!! X
Morning everyone. . Glad u are all doing fab .. times is flying by I can't believe I'm nearly 5 weeks post op.
I've had a right carry on with tablets I finally got the ones the hospital prescribed yesterday from my docs .. hoping the week without them is ok. The docs messed up with my injection appointment it is now on Monday.
Food wise is ok I've dumped twice and I can't figure out off what.
Pain after eating isn't too great sometimes and I feel hungry a lot of the time.
Got myself stressed and started smoking again I haven't lost any weight since I was last on here which as contributed to the smoking
I'm so angry at myself for the bloody fags.
I can't wait for my follow up which is 4 March.
