Hi all
I am having a bypass later this year but I keep hearing of people not loosing weight after about 10 wks. I am worried I have it done and it not working I need to rid myself of fat and diabetes.
Thanks

I had my Gastric Bypass in July 2015 and I am still loosing weight. It is much slower now about 1lb to 2 lb a week and I have lost 7 stone. I had health issues too. It will not be easy but in my case it was the best thing I ever did. There has been lots highs & lows.
Please feel free to ask any more question if you need to.
Best of luck

Just a note...clothes can be a problem, I'm going through them fast. I try to get clothes that will still look good when I lose more weight, like boyfriend blazers or other loosely structured clothes. I don't mean baggy stuff, because I no longer have to wear baggy, but a blazer can go through three sizes, if the cheaper cami or tee or whatever underneath fits.
Probably too much information, but when I was researching bypass, I couldn't get enough information....

It's all so routine that I almost forget I am wired differently inside. I go out with friends a lot and now eat the way they do....small portions, pick at my food, pass on white carbs, leave food on my plate, take leftovers home.
Another thing that surprised me....I have fewer forbidden foods now. I didn't keep chips, etc., in the house before, because I could never eat small amounts. I handled my lack of disciple by taking away the temptation. Now, I don't crave the snacks the way I used to so I can keep them around.
I love my new lifestyle. You will too!
