Thanks I am feeling a lot less sore and a little more hungry , I slept till 9am have just showered and am off to make my Optifast (strawberry) I quite like it , but it would be good to get my TEETH into something lol...will have strained Soup for lunch in between will get my Berroca down ..

Nothing planned for today potter around , maybe do a little book work later (end of the month stuff is a pain) .. I am pretty lucky to have a home office so don`t have to go into the factory office for my work (we have a lady to work that end), I do the wages and accounts from home she does the invoicing, Quotes , orders and telephones....

Well as I seem hungry this morning I am off to eat (drink)...Have a great weekend ...

Well saw the dietitian today, alls going well...

Thursday I can start Blended stuff, so might Make Curried chicken and blend me up a meal on Thursday night ...sounds Yuk ! but after Optifast, Soup and juice it will be something ,I can also blend up spaghetti bol, or Baked Beans ,have a soft poached egg plus I can also start to have porridge or a weetbix in the morning , some Yougarts, pureed fruit and custards.... Its at least a bit more variety.

Still just the 7 kilos lost since before the surgery but she said that for sure I would be loosing fat its just with all the liquids I am rehidrating whatever that is :? and not to worry about the scales for a while just to get the eating right, so as I don`t get a blockage and cause vomiting in the first 6 weeks its important so the stitches holding the band stay put..(of course you all know this..) :biggrin:

Back to see her in 2 weeks then I should go onto real food (I hope) , Can`t wait to be on normal foods even if its just small amounts.

I have a small Band 10ml with a fill limit of 7mls (I think thats what she said) , guess an appointment will get made for that next visit (at 6weeks)....

Off to bed , Have a great week all feeling heaps better not sore much at all now.....

thats really good to hear! i hope so too...

the fill was ok - nothing like a lot of american lap band patients seem to go through! it was quick and easy, a slight bit painful trying to find the port... i felt like i was doing pilates because he asked me to lay on my back, lift both legs and head off the bed! like a situp hehe anyway he found it, jabbed me and put in 2mls... i feel fine so far except for i got really hungrywhen i got home!! i cant explain it, but hopefully i be back to normal tomorrow :(

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
