Good luck suefee. Westie will that be 4 weeks since you had your op when you get your first fill on the 18th? Tee bird I can imagine its hard after having the band fitted and having no restriction, How long do you reckon the restriction wears off after operation. I know everyone is different but just a rough guide ie. do you think you could eat everything that you could before?

Yes - it will be 4 weeks and 2 days, as suggested by Frederik! I can't believe how well I feel. I have already lost 7kg (1 stone 14oz), although that shouldn't be a surprise really considering I was not eating for 2 days and on liquids from then on. I do find that I'm not hungry though, except when it gets close to a meal time. I'm also very tolerant of the family eating in front of me, which is something I never ever thought I'd be able to stand, ha ha.

Strangely enough I too had a tumble in hospital the night of my operation. I was in agony with my back and couldn't get comfortable, I think it must have been the gas, when the nurse came in to check up on me I asked to get out of bed to try and relieve it. Sitting on the side of the bed I felt a bit sick and thought to :smile: myself I must get myself laid on the bed in case I pass out - and the next thing I remember is 2 very concerned nurses trying to wake me up as I had fainted off the bed and got myself wedged between the bed and radiator. Thanks to the 2 sisters opposite me for calling the nurses, although apparently the whole ward heard me fall (and the building probably shook). Not a bruise or bump on me though!! Lucky or what??:(

Ahh thanx Shoes, its lovely to hear from you.

Freddy boy topped me up to 5 and a half when I went on 14th may.

I had been to see my surgeon Michael Van den Bossche on the saturday before (second fill) and he had put in 5 then took half out cos he thought I was struggling to drink the Water, but as it turned out i was fine.

Since the last fill with freddy, I am struggling to eat anything much.

I cant even drink booze too well., this is why I turned to cigs, I have no will power whatsoever.

Hubby says I'm being silly about the cigs, and I know I am. I have smoked one today, it will build up and up.

The thing is since I smoked on saturday I have lost weight, so now its in my mind that cigs make me lose weight.

I just feel I want one, and I put a patch on and the damn thing keeps coming off.

You would have laffed yesterday cos I had to stick it on with a plaster and in the end used sellotape!!:(

      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!!
