Thank you
@Pipp - you’re dead right, I do need a follow on plan, or I will just slip back into my old ways. Again.
I’m not sure what that is going to be yet, but maybe some form of intermittent fasting, and low carb something. I’m vegetarian and I try not to eat eggs or dairy if I can. So proper low carb is really hard. So I might have to do the fasting with as low carb as I can manage.
And yes, the gallstones! I got those after my second pregnancy, and had my gallbladder out a few years ago. But I do wonder what my poor liver thinks I’m doing to it this time!
@Tophat1900 and
@Resurgam - I was shocked too at the suggestion of gastric bypass. But I genuinely love this GP and possibly that’s exactly what he wanted to do, because I’ve been gently told to lose weight many times before, and it hasn’t worked. So if he was trying to scare me into doing something - then it worked. And he’s right, there is a lot of evidence for gastric bypass, but it’s really not for me I don’t think.
he also mentioned that if I’m going to consider it, then consider it early enough that my pancreas isn’t ‘completely ********’, because that gives the best results. I’m hoping to speak to him soon, so I hope he’s pleased with what I’ve got so far.
