I had my RNY 11 years ago and I never heard of the "liver shrink diet," why is it done? I was able to eat the way I wanted up to midnight before the surgery.

My Surgery was 11 years ago. I was 252 and got down to 138. I had gotten back up to 163 but back on my way back down. I'd like to get back to the 138 and I have 14 pounds to go and I am having such a hard time doing it. I get hungry about every two hours. Maybe it's my meds or I've also been told that it's the surgery and…

Hi Lynn, I just found this group today and so glad I did. What kind of surgery did you have? I had the RNY 11 years ago.

I do understand what it's like to have little kids and try to get in some exercise. It's been my experience that you will still lose weight but it might be a little slower. The weight will come off pretty good in the beginning (for me anyway) but then exercise will become more important to get the stubborn pounds off. When…

Almost 11 years and no regrets- none. Here are some of the things that I have had to deal with.

I eat imitation crab meat. I put it in my grits along with green onions and tomatoes. It's fat free and yummy- if you like grits.

I had the RNY 10 years ago and lost 114 pounds I have gained back 20 which is why I'm doing MFP. One very imortant thing is that you HAVE to deal with your head as well- go to OA or someother place to learn to eat right and get some kind of handle on this or you will gain it back. I know because I've been where you are and…

I had my RNY 10 years ago. When I went in to see the doctor I was going in wanting the band but she told me that ther RNY was the gold standard. I'm so happy that I did the RNY. I have heard of people loosing weight with the band but personally I have never known one. I do know two of my friends that have it but are still…

:smile: I had my bypass in October 2002 and I have no regrets at all. I lost 114 pounds. I have put on about 20 that I'm trying to get rid of and that is the only downer about the surgery. It seems harder to loose those 20 pounds and I think it's because of the absorbstion of the calories. At one time I went on a 1200…
