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 :(

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
