Hi Debi Good luck for your op next week. As for the music if you go to the general lap band and discussion and look in the fitness and exercise section one of the threads is a list of music people work out to. Hope this helps. Nat

That is very funny because one of the words I have been considering is breathe, I didnt know any actress had it I just thought it kind of rang a bell with me, I have not decided and I have a while to think about it but I wont get anything until I am 100% happy Im not going to permanently mark myself with anything I will regret in 6 months.

I have decided I am going to get a tattoo on the inside of my wrist when I lose 40kg to remind me everyday of where I have been and how far I have come. Oh yeah and as a mid way present we might go to Melbourne to see 'Wicked' the musical.

Friday is my day off, if i dont do anything on other days I feel guilty but Friday is my day to go home and have a nanna nap on the lounge if i so wish and it gives my body a well deserved break.

The school nurse calls you into her office and tells you that you seriously need to by new clothes because that shirt is huge on you. Thankyou nurse!!!

Good on you, The first step is the hardest, once you get on the exercise trail and get a routine you will find it hard to imagine how you didnt do it before. I tell myself every time I feel like not exercising "Its only 1 hour out of your life get up now and feel good later"

I dont burp I get the hiccups really bad. My husband says I sound like a drain when I drink even he can hear the gurgling as it goes down. Some days its not too bad and others I have to be careful. Last week could have been emabarrasing I took a big sip of water and it went down the wrong way I just got out the staffroom door when all the water exploded out of me like a water fountain, Nice!!

Good on you batkitty, I think it doesnt matter how we do it as long as we "shut our gob and move our ass" to quote Jachut. I have joined the gym for 3 months to make sure I dont get sick of it and have to pay for a while year like i did at curves

As I sit laughing at all these funny posts I realize my bum bones are sticking into the computer chair and hurting, omg the paddings disappearing

HEHE yes I have had to dig down and reef em up!!! Bought new undies and even they are starting to slip.

When the boardshorts that threatened to explode under the pressure last summer fall to the bottom of the pool during water aerobics.

Please dont stress, Towards the end of my first month i was eating pretty well whatever I wanted. I did ocassionally get stuck but it eased pretty quick. Im no expert but I think the band would have to be a little stronger than to slip over one meal. I think we are so scared that something will go wrong and we will be on our own again that anything sets off a freak out. I cant tell you its all ok but at least you will see your doc tomorrow and your mind will be at ease.

Is it normal to not be able to drink water quickly? I find when I exercise I really want to drink lots of water fast but I cant, I have to take small mouthfuls and wait for it to go down. Is that the norm??

Ok so I had my first fill on Thursday all good. Friday morning we decided to go to adventure world so off we went without even thinking about food we would buy there. Got to the lunch counter and they only sold burgers and chips so i thought I should be ok if I eat a couple of chips and chew well. About 1 minute after I swallowed I started to feel stuck and ill so I took a degas tablet. For about 6 hours after I was pb'ing and sick I couldnt even drink water, what hell. I threw up about 5 times in public at adventure world and felt sooo humiliated. I am fine now but have learnt a valuable lesson never go anywhere unprepared and getting stuck is no joke.

We had scones for morning tea on Monday and I couldnt even try them I was too scared. I am finding that I cant eat much at all during the day but I can eat at night, breakfast is a complete waste of time I just want to throw up at the thought. I have trouble taking metamucil because it gets thick before I can get it down. I think I will go very conservative after the next fill unless I suddenly lose restriction. So far so good, how have you been with restriction Emma?

We had English backpackers stay with us and they couldnt believe their eyes when we served up a roast dinner with baked pumpkin. They told us that they only use pumpkin as pig food.

:w00t:Im laughing about it now but Friday night I was really thinking I was too tight and would have to remain unfilled forever and it was all a waste of time blah blah blah very dramatic. Im slowly starting to tackle slightly solid food today at work I ate the middle of a quiche and it went down well. I have a day off tomorrow ny school is flooded WOOHOO:thumbup::wink2::tt2:

I have been a regular at the chiropractor for about 10 years and always have something out. I went for my regular visit on Friday and for the first time ever she said my back was good. I cant believe that it has only taken a short time to see health changes. I have started training with a friend who does triathlons so she is very motivating.

I am sooo glad to hear you are home. I really hope your recovery is full and you get back to a normal life soon. Hope to see you around here more often. Great to see you have still lost weight throughout your ordeal. Wont be long and we will be shopping in the front of the stores not up the back in the corner!!!!:biggrin2::biggrin2:

Just got back from the gym, that elliptical trainer is killing me I just cant get used to it I feel like Im going to die when Im on it and can only manage 6 minutes before I sneak off like a loser. I gues that means I should do more of it. I can only go twice this week as Im going to perth for my first fill YAY!!! Will definitely find a nice place to have a big walk while Im there if I can get time away from all the extended family that insist we visit when in Perth.

She smiles how much weight did you lose before you started running? That is my goal but I still feel too cumbersome to move that fast, so its a quick walk right now. I have to say I have never felt this good about exercise before, I actually feel bad if I think I may miss a day and that has never happened. In the past I would be looking for any small reason to skip and then blame no exercise at all on my busy day and running around after my kids.

I have not burped since I was banded just over a month ago. I have lots of gurgling and get the hiccups alot but no burp. I kind of miss the satisfaction of a good belch. :cry_smile:
