It is almost summer here in Australia which means it can be very challenging to meet those fluid goals. Between the kids finishing school, work and the many commitemnts that come at the holiday season, getting enough fluid can be a challenge. 

In today's episode, I go through some great strategies to ensure you're hydrated and limiting the risk of dehydration. I have some simple but easy strategies for increasing fluid and go through what those "frothies" are after weight loss surgery.

Nutrition after weight loss surgery can be overwhelming and confusing. 

In today's episode I go through the use of the bariatric plate (this episode is not affliated but resources and be shown here for ease): 

• Great Ideas In Nutrition Bariatric Plate (buy porcelian if you intend to use in the microwave). 

The use of the plate can make it easy to follow and easier to identify ways to improve and adjust your plate to ensure you're reaching the nutrient goals.

A common longer time symptom or condition after weight loss surgery is reactive hypoglycaemia or post-prandial hypoglycaemia. It is different to diabetes in any form, but can happen due to the altered release of hormones after weight loss surgery. 

 Reactive hypoglycaemia is where the body releases too much of the hormone insulin after bariatric surgery. Due to the smaller portion of carbohydrates consumed after bariatric surgery, when too much insulin is released it can cause too much digested sugar to enter the cells. 

Symptoms of hypoglycemia may include:

• Shakiness.
• Dizziness or lightheadedness.
• Sweating.
• Hunger.
• A fast or uneven heartbeat.
• Feeling weak or tired.
• Feeling irritable or anxious.
• Headache

Today I go through what this condition is, how to prevent it through some dietary strategies and how to treat through diet. It is strongly recommended you seek individual advice from your own bariatric dietitian and medical practitioner to discuss treatment for your case.

Knowing when you're hungry and when you're full is new and different after weight loss surgery. Those symptoms you used to get to know when to eat or when to stop are different post-op. It takes time to learn these symptoms.

In today's episode, I break down what to look out for when you are hungry and when you are full. I have a resource called the Hunger Scales and feel free to use it and journal pre and post-meal to identify your own unique symptoms.

In this podcast episode, we delve into the question that often plagues individuals who have undergone weight loss surgery: "Have I stretched my stomach after WLS (Weight Loss Surgery)?" 

Whether you've had a gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, or any other metabolic procedure, this concern is a common one. 

Suraya guides us through the intricacies of understanding what's normal after a WLS procedure and how to assess the state of your pouch. 

This episode provides insights into pouch size variations, the reasons behind them, and a practical method to measure your pouch at home. Understanding these factors can help those who've undergone weight loss surgery maintain a balanced and healthy approach to eating. 

The goal is not just weight loss but long-term health and well-being.
