Baarbs

Get away with you you love all these compliments from us women! lol I felt nothing from th first fill but was truly relieved that I had not gained any weight but this fill I feel I have to be carefull and have not tried bread or difficult stuff, did have cottage pie today but do get full quickeralthough can still eat a fair amount if I am carefull, would be good if I get to the sweet spot next time. Keep up the good work. Barbara x

Hi, Yes I always look forward to meeting everyone and seeing how everyone has been doing and getting my fix of motivation. See you next month. B x

Hi Carriejess, Congratulations how wonderfull for you. Love barbara

Hi guys and gals thought it was about time I checked in. Had my second fill yesterday and it has certainly made a difference. I was feeling a bit fed up having not lost a nano ounce in the last month but I saw Chris for the first time and he was very good and supportive. Also saw the gang mmm and others in the waiting room and as usual they gave me hope seeing how well they have all done. Chris put 2mls in so I am up to 5mls now and just on the soup at the moment and can only eat little of that so thats good news. Were your ears burning Gary!! mmm said how fit you were and on the day after the op you were jogging arownd the town, unlike me gently walking in the hotel.haha Glad to hear you are doing so well and the weight is falling off again for you. Your amazing. Hopefully I am back on track now and won't be feeling hungry so much. Good luck all you due to be banded and the new bandsters keep up the good work everyone.

Hi Freckles, Love the new hair style, You look so good. x

I'm suprised you got them passed your teeth anytime I have tried one they just stick like glue to my teeth!!! How many fills did you get before you started to feel any effect. I know I know I impatient but I did so well after the operation I didn't feel hungry at all for the first 3 weeks. After my 1st 3ml fill Friday I feel nothing no effects at all and as I sit here typing this my tummy is grumbling wanting food. Some of the other guys are doing so well in the early days of banding and yet I have come to a full stop. Could do with some tips garry on what to do or eat that will satisfy the cravings (clean ones please lol) B x

Thanx for that, somtimes when you read that everyone is doing so well it's a bit disheartening when I seem to be finding it hard to keep on trac.B x

Hi Good to meet you, I didn't get chance to say bye bye. sorry about that but it was getting a bit crowded in there. Fred said my band was 15ml and that he put 3ml in it although i don't feel any difference and no restriction. I had a sandwich today for lunch and am having fish pie for tea. I thought I would have no apitite but I do. I have felt like a "stich" type cramp feeling a couple of inches below my port I hope it isn't a problem. Well done on your weight loss already I didn't know you had lost 10stone how amazing are you and you looked great. I will be booking in for my next fill next month hope that makes a difference.:biggrin: B

Hi Mags Good to meet you and your beautiful grand daughter

Hope to see you guys but I'm in for 11.10 and I think they only keep you there for 30mins but I will look out for you both

I suppose I am worried I won't be able to get myself back in gear. I was so chuffed loosing the 14lbs but haven't lost anymore in fact have put some back on shifted it back off and then again a couple back on. Worried that it's the here we go again with the yoyo. B

I'm comming up from Plymouth about 2 1/2 hours drive. It's been 6 weeks since my op I see yours was only 3 weeks ago I thought we had to wait 4 to 6 weeks I wish I had ben able to have a fill after 4 weeks but as he only goes once a month to Newport I had to wait. Are you still loosing a lot? I remember you saying you lost loads very quickly.
