This time last year i broke up with by bf father of my three year old. since then we sold our house, i bought a new car, got promoted in work, got the band in and bought a new house. my final loan approval came through today. doing snag next week and hopefully sign the week after. Hopefully by xmas i'll be in my new house and skinny! just wish it was all over, can't take much more.

  8. Laura 12lbs in two weeks thats fantastic. my weight loss has slowed down quite a bit but i can feel such a difference in clothes. I bought a red dress size 14 for a wedding in august. I bought it months ago and fell in love with it. It was the only size left. it was about two inches too tight across the bust but guess what it fits me now!
  9. When you get the band you've no choice but to eat slow or it gets stuck
  10. HI, Hows everyone doing? Lou

  12. hi Dini, I also have had backmpain but modtly from not sleeping properly. Coco, yes i'm eating proper food. still not working
  13. I want to eat, retriction has completely gone. Trying to diet as i don't want to put any of the weight i lost back on. Help!
  14. Hi CoCo, you'll be fine not to worry less than two weeks till its fixed. louise
  15. I was banding on the 23rd of june. Will be two weeks this saturday.
  16. I'm hopeless i gave up on the liquids last week! went to the gym this evening... tought it would be a battle but it was grand...painless. I'm working out points according to weightwatchers and daily i'm eating about 12 to 14 points a day which is a third less than i can so there is still restiction there. Still feel like I'm dieting frightened if i don't count the points i'll go over the daily amount.
  17. can I ring and book a fill? I'm ment to be on liquids but i'm bloody starving! what happened to the restriction!
  18. thanks coco, I'm looking forward to be able to fit a bit more in. was worried i'd never eat again!
  19. Hi all, I was banded last saturday and so far i've lost eight pounds, I'm finding it hard to eat much. I get hungry and then i eat but can only fit three or four spoon fulls in or a small petit falou. Reckon may calorie intake is about 500 calories per day. Does this kind of retriction pass?
  20. Hi Chron's is usually in the intestine not the stomach so you should be able to keep your band, however you made need steroids or part of your intestine removed depending how bad.
  21. Hi Can anyone tell me how soon after being banded does the restriction pass. I just feel full all the time. I've lost 8lb since last saturday although i'm happy to be loosing i'm a bit concerned i'm loosing too quick, and i would like to eat a bit more as one or two spoons and i'm full. Dini, Day one and two after being banded i felt terrible but since then i feel great. it is so so worth it. Oh and i had my driving test yesterday and i passed, first time trying. Life is looking up!
  22. Dini, How you doin hon? First day after is the worst but you'll be fine soon.
  23. the band is amazing! few days into it and i feel great. weight is falling off. I'm stuffed really quick. not missing food at all. best invention ever.
  24. Hey all, I'm three days post op, ment to be on liquids but i'm having soft foods. Can't each much of anything as it doesn't fit but just the taste is great. Couldn't handle a liquid diet felt to depressed. I know band is stitched in place so it doesn't move. Loosing about a lb a day so its working!
