Hello Everyone! I am currently 9 months out as of today...

My weight loss (as of today) is 131 pounds.

My question for everyone is how much do you eat? I mean can you finish a hamburger (if you eat one)?

Also, have you discovered there are times you are absolutely not hungry?

Thanks

Hi Debbie, CONGRATULATIONS on your weight loss!!!

In the beginning I could eat very little, tiny amounts such as 2 spoonfuls filled my 2 oz tummy up. As the months went by I could eat a little more. After a year I could eat about 1/3 of a hamburger, and a couple bites of vegetables. By 18 months I could eat about 1/2 a hamburger. Now 30 months later I can eat a small hamburger and veggies but more often than not I don't finish it. Many times I still throw away all or most of my bun. For the first 18 months I couldn't eat bread at all, it would get caught in my throat and I would throw up. For the first 18 months I didn't have much of an appitite at all and would have to remind myself to eat. Now I do get hungry but fill up very fast. I eat anything I want but eat slowly and stop when I'm full.

Gastric Bypass surgery saved my life! I have never felt better!!!

Keep up the great work!!!

Hi I am just getting started on my new life. I am going through all of my appointments to prepare for my surgery. I am so looking forward to becoming a new person and doing the things I have been dreaming about for a long time. I would like to connect with anyone who has been through this and has any advice for me
