Ive joined a gym today & i officially start on monday with my health check..
my weight hasnt moved in the last few days so im figuring if i move my ass a little more my weight might start to move again,
its a big gym with a very big pool, seperate spa pool,has a ladies only gym room if yu dont wantto go in the mixed one, got sunbeds in the locker rooms,
2 huge dance rooms, a speed bike room, too many things to list...
looking forward to monday.. there is no way i would have done this when i was 50 lbs heavier

Hubby took me clothes shopping today, same ole 2 shops & wasnt really happy as they didnt have any wow factor clothes in, so hubby said lets try other clothes sops, i kept saying no they wont fit me theyre for slimmer people, So he grabbed my arm & i took some tops of the rails knowing it would be a waste of time, went to the dressing rooms & omg to my amazement they fitted, my legs went to jelly i had a huge smile on my face & i kept looking at the sizes to make sure i wasnt being fooled & i couldnt believe how small they looked compared to my type of clothes i would normally have to buy...
I spent about 2 hours in 2 shops trying on clothes, & knowing i can now go into more than 2 shops for clothes & mix with the slimmer people when buying clothes...
The store girls were fantastic towards me, i always thougt they didnt like larger women, thats so not true
I have gone from a UK size 30 to a UK size 22-20... woooohooooooo

I am celebrating today as i have lost 42 lbs in 6 weeks & im still on my post op diet & it wont be for a few weeks yet til i get my first fill...
Its been a good few years since i was at this weight & it feels good to start feeling a bit more like a woman than a blob...
Im down to about 1 skirt fitting me properly, as my other clothes are TOO big & my shoes are slouching too & my coats can be nearly wrapped around me, but will do for this winter..
I dont have any regrets with the lapbanding..it has saved my life..we are both working together to make this work for me...
I cant wait for summer to finally wear nicer clothes...

hi i didnt go until my 4th day..hubby bought me Lactulose liquid, said your suppose to take 9 spoonfulls, i could only manage 4 as it tastes of pure sugar (too sickly for me) & within couple hours i was going & today dont need it..good luck i hope you find something that works for you

Just before my surgery i too like everyone else was very scared/nervous..not of the pain as this was my 8th surgery so i knew what to expect afterwards, but was afraid of not waking up...
well i did & i am here & i am at this moment extremely happy..
I have so far lost a total of 26lbs from December 28th 08..
I have noticed a difference in my clothes & my boobs have shrunk some too..yeahhh..
It was a rollercoaster journey i mean with emotions..but now i am so focused on this lapband..
I am doing everything the nutrition nurse has told me & so far so good, i cant manage all the required liquids on my post op diet & have spoken to the nurse & she has told me its fine cos i am having sips regulary & i am not dehydrated & when the swelling/bruising goes down i will want to have more..so 3 more weeks on liquids then mashed potatoes & gravy here i come..lol

14 lbs to go then getting my new tattoo to which id better start looking around for a nice design, im thinking of getting one on my wrist, a small one, an achievement thing for me & getting my belly button pierced :thumbup: hope it doesnt hurt too much :thumbdown:
