Hello,

I had a gastric bypass in August last year.

Have done amazingly well on the weight loss side, but am in serious need of a kick up my bum with regards exercise.

If there are any other Bariatric, especially bypass, peeps out there please add me and we can struggle on together!

    Hello Marianne!

    I too am a bypass gal. It will be 2 years on May 12th. Would really be nice to talk to someone that I have something in common with.

    Hi,

    I had something similar surgery -Gastric Band surgery - a few years ago and it didn't work. In fact, I am a lot heavier than when I had the surgery. Even though I worked out 3 to 4 times a week.

    In april 2013, I found out that I am lactose, gluten, wheat intolerant. Since changing this diet, I have been losing wait. Its still early days and I still have the band. I am excerising the same amount of time but I feel better and putting more energy into my exercise. In 3 weeks I have lost just over 4 kilos or 10 pounds,

    If you want to add me, I am happy to discuss the issues I faced.

    Hello,

    Sorry to hear your weight loss surgery wasn't successful, have you had your band filled?
