Want to be able to have great food when you had gastric bypass RNY Surgery?
The answer is yes! I had gastric bypass in 2010 and lost 170 pounds. I went from over 300 pounds to 130ish... I was determined when I had the surgery I was going to go sugar free and made a lot of effort to make sure I could still enjoy the deserts I loved to make. I do redo recipes so they become sugar free or low in sugar.
Some people do not know or not aware that when you have the RNY Gastric Bypass you are lucky if when you consume sugar after the surgery you get very very sick. Just imagine the worst flu for 20 mins. This can really ruin a holiday or just a ordinary day. When I first had the surgery and for about 3 years after that I was very very adamant about checking the sugar and if necessary tweaking my beloved recipes. I was one of the lucky ones that if I consumed sugar I was so so sick... So I learned don't eat it... or recreate it! I then I was 130 pounds and pretty much started to dabble and started adding more and more sugar to my diet. I had some problems and next thing I know I gained 50 pounds back in a blink of an eye.
I was very angry with myself and joined the gym and was biking about 8 miles a day everyday and the scale did not move!!!! I started having problems with my left knee and was told I needed a total knee replacement. The surgeon said he would not do the surgery unless I showed him I could lose some weight. WHAT!!! I was so mad... are you kidding me? Do you know how much I weighed? I know I am 180 pounds now but I was over 300 pounds. He was very adamant about showing him I could lose the weight. I left the office and told my husband I needed to go back to basics because the exercising daily was not working so I needed to go back to a sugar free diet. I know some people will tell me... this is all chemicals and is bad for your body. I know but sugar for me is a chemical and I gain weight quick. I was able to lose 20 pounds since I went sugar free and had my surgery 5 weeks ago. After the surgery I decided to eat a little sugar here and there... well thank GOD!!! I got sick. It is called dumping! I was ill.... YAY!!! I was not able to handle sugar again. Even after a jolly rancher I was vomiting! I am now going sugar free again and I am not going to turn back. I think once you know what helps you lose the weight and keep it off you need to do the same recipe!
