Thankyou both... :)

I am home...from seeing the dietitian and supposidly the fill doctor...

NO FILL....

Went to see the dietitian and the doc. for a fill if needed ...

She was so pleased with me I had lost 4kilo`s since my last visit (5 weeks ago) ,

She did not think I needed a fill as I am still just eating the requirerd meals (can`t eat more than one sandwich /small plate of meat veggies (bread and butter plate) am feeling a restriction when full..

I have a 10ml band with a 7 ml maximum fill my first fill was 3.2 so thats where it stays for now , she said I can call and go in early than 4 weeks if I feel I can eat more and /or my weigh stops coming off , she said the majority of bandits with my size usually get to about 3.5 or 4mls and are at their sweet spot around there , but as I am not having any problems with over eating I am fine for now , the small pouch could streatch a little in time alowing more food without that full feeling if so thats when I need a fill..

So all in all I am happy with that I was wondering how on earth I was going to feel with a fill as I get full on so little now (well I think its little and I am still loosing )....

Gotta Go my Boys (the birds want OUT of their bird room and I need a cuppa)...

P.S....I wore my new 18 jeans and a size 22 top that I could not get into 4 moths ago and FELT great ..I have now changed into my sloppy size 20`s and a nice warm sloppy Joe ....can`t have the boys pooping on my new smaller gear....icon_e_smile.gificon_razz.gif

I hope everyone is having a great day..I have done the groceries and the cupboards are full again , easy meal tonight maybe a veggie pattie and a egg....Hubby is travelling to Lithgow and won`t be home till late so its just Me and my son(David) who has just decided to turn a vegetarian icon_rolleyes.gif

Bye for now ...Marion

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      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!!
