hahahaha you know exactly what i mean honey

hahahaha that did not sound right. gx

sure you will babe, i will be putting in more than in my diary. gx

hey babe glad to hear from you am so pleased for you you will be super hot. gx

alex poss a little early however scrape the mince and sauce out and i am sure that wil be ok, i have tight restriction and that what i done. enjoy

there are many avenues to my talents, hahahahahah gx

well there are two ways if you wnt the simple way then buy any of the patak jars of curry paste they are fantastic, but black lentils or normal split yellow/red lentils and soak them, then boil them in salted water till cooked then drin.fry off a few onions in garlic add the paste and a tin of tomatoes then add fresh ginger and the lentils and simmer for 15-20 mins and watch out for it burning, then add frsh corriander nd some low fat(of course) creme fraiche. Voila I hasten to adD Madhur Jaffery am no.

i like spicy things so i made a lentil curry bordering on soup and it was good. gx

a wee meal tip for my new found restriciton, i got a packet of quorn mince, a spoonfull of pataks curry paste and handfull of peas and a tin of tomatoes and made a lovely curry that slipped down just nicely allbeit it took me 50 min but dam tasy and i felt i had something. Quorn mince would not be my normal choice but in a curry its good and very low in fat and calories while adding good protien. a whole bad of 300g quron mince is only 270 cals, i reckon i managed half and with the sauce i would guess a calorie value of 320 cals plus rice 200 total 520, so i had 2 slimfast shakes 400 cals and half a count on us meal 200 so plus a few coffees i reckon i had 1400 cals, so i am happy at that as i am doing a good hour a day of cardio so need the fuel. but at last band doing its job gx

hi sammy,yeh its fine, if anything possible relxed slightly but not too much, either tht or maybe i am understanding how not to pb and thats why it feel relaxed. I am focusing on getting the water in heavily as i understand the improtance, i am also concious of eating enought protien as i am trining 6 days a week again and meat is quite difficult, i am going to try quorn chicken as the texture is softer however i have ordered a good protien shake to replce brekkie and for after training ensuring i get all the right things. I ate yesterday, 1 Slimfst for brekkie a few cappuccinos 1/2 M&S Fresh soup carton (could have ate all but had no time) 1 lasagne for tea so all in all i reckon about 1200 cals so thats a good reduction. Gx

nice one gillian we take for granted loosing a pound and not realising what it actully weighs, its would be a good idea for everyone to equate there weightloss to something that you can lift and i think people will get a surprise. gx

Its just nice to hear from you darlin. xxxx

i would say its not like a choke however being honest the first time something sticks and you PB (productive burp) you could panic as its a strange and quite sore feeling but once you understand the signs you dont get it. gx

thanks wishfull, its crazy mental, its been an interesting few days, you will get it before you know it. its all fun. gx

j so glad to hear from you well done glad your all done, take the rest and relax it will pay dividends. gx

aw thats a wee shame about your hubby> I am getting the hang of my restriction now, i have sussed to really take time, i can only eat mushy food but thats cool, and at the first gurggle at back of throat to stop and wait then continue as i found out that carrying on after gurggle leads to a little pain and the forming of that lovely gloop and if it does not shift at that then the little bit of food in pouch comes up> i got that far a couple of times yesterday and after that i could get nothing down even water for a good few hours. Today i have got the hang and not Pb at all and managed to get decent ammount of fluid, porridge for brekkie, a small plate of lentil curry then a small ammount (tiny) of rice with sauce tonight. I think i am very tight as meat is a no no but i am happy to put up with it as my weight has moved quite a bit even since thurs. I am so motivated again and just glad that the band is finally doing what its ment.:thumbup: gx

hi ladies thanks for your responce, sounds like i am the same as you have had, i am learning more as the day goes on about diferent feelings and noises, been able to drink no probs allbeit i take my time and i have just had some soup so i am fine, your right it will start the weigtloss again, i have also been training hard again so looking forward to the scales moving. thanks again gals. gxx

cheers wishfull, i am fine with it just going to persevere, its great managed a whole glass of milk this morning, roll on watching those scales move. Gx

It was my pleasure, I am only pleased it added to the info on this great forum. Oh and thanks for the compliments, am blushing. Take care. Nite all. Gx

Vikki thanks for that no I am fine just bizzarre after having no restriction and I just want to hear from the gals that were in the same boat a few wks ago. Gx

hi ladies i cant remember if it was wishfull or gillian that had reallt tight restriciton recently, can you let me know and pass a little advice cheers gx

heres hoping shoes, think i may have got too much inn as i am struggling a bit tonight with fluids, it was not as bad earlier but i thin some peple get tighter in the evening and some in morning, i will see how it is in morning, as long as i can get fluid i will live with it as it will ease in a few days. gx

hahahahaha there is every chance i may have a little too much in, i managed a small tim of tom soup earlier but since going to gym i am struggling with soup/water, i take a small sip and it just gurggles away, it does pass eventually. You guys with restriciton is this norm at this stage, i know it can subside as the days go on, but its certainly interesting. gx
