Hi all, I was like Cherry Blue I didn't tell anyone except for a select few and my husband John who has had the op asked why as he told everyone that would listen. I thought about that and it was nothing to do with what people thought as I really don't care it is just that I am quite secretive about my life unless of course they ask then I will tell them. So much so now that I have told them that I will not be at work next week some of them has asked and now nearly everyone knows. Sam

Hi Roheryn, I know this has nothing to do with the post but, noticed that your op is tomorrow. Good luck!! Sam

Hi all, I agree I must admit it is getting easier as the days go by (thank goodness). I also ended up with headaches the first couple of days, but hey painkillers work well it was the wakening up in the middle of the night feeling hungry that got me. I have now started eating a small amount of salad at night to help stop feeling so hungry (no dressings of course) and that has helped heaps. Sam

Hi all, I thought I should create my own account instead of using John's as I thought people might get confused when it shows to different tickers. I have posted several times under John's username hence why I kept it sort of the same only added one digit. Well I am being banded on 4th September by Dr.Copp at Greenslopes. John my husband got banded on the 17th March and has lost heaps of weight and has not had to give up anything so I thought I would take the plunge as like most people here I would lose weight then gain it all back again and more. I am looking forward to the op and am now currently doing the Optifast stage I must admit this is day 3 and am only now starting to feel better the first two days were really hard(I woke up in the middle of the night feeling really hungry and was feeling a bit lightheaded). Today I feel a lot better. Sam
