15 Days till banding

I saw my Dietician today - Trudy Wiliams. I have been seeing Trudy for a couple of years now and she is very familiar with my struggle. She is very possitive and supportive about LB and has every confidence that I will do well.   She ran through the pre op. diet, the post op diet and the puree diet. I just want to get started now because I have everything ready to go. I think the 2 weeks pre op diet is going to be the hardest so I just want to get that over and done with.   I've been having a few of my old favourite meals the last few days - saying good by to them for good I suppose. Today I had Narchos. I feel so full but I dont feel bad. It wasn't that great.   Tomorrow morning I weigh myself and take measurments. These will be my starting figures.

14 Days till banding

Well, I'm off and running. Today is the first day of Optifast in preparation for banding on the 30th. I had Vanilla with Raspberries for breakfast and coffee - no milk - yuck!! For lunch I had a salad and plain Vanilla Opti but I added a little vanilla extract - yum. Also had Diet coke and blueberries. Tonight I think I'll have pumpkin soup and Opti chocolate mousse with raspberries.   I weighed myself this morning - wait for it - 107kg. Enough said.   I'll do my measurments tonight and post them tomorrow.

8 days till banding

I saw Dr Bowden again today. My last appontment before the op. Everything is cool. I'm satisfied with all the info I have and I'm just looking forward to it now - in a strange sort of way.   Still not loving the optifast, although Dr Bowden said I could have some skim milk in my coffee - god love his skinny arse!!!   I weigh 104.4kg today with 1 week to go.

4 days till banding

Not the best weekend for eating. Had a few social things and ate things I shouldn't. Just further proof, I suppose that dieting does not work for me. In the past when I have been using Optifast or any other restrictive diet, I would do great for a week or so but I would have to eventually lash out and then almost certainly it would send me spiralling o ut of controle. So I'm not surprised I could not stay on OPtifast for 2 weeks but I'm still a bit dissapointed in myself. Anyeway I'm back on the Optifast now and I know I can stick with it till Wednesday.
