A silly one but a new one nonetheless...it was the mentions of not liking to take photos that reminded me!
I used to love taking photos (in my skinny days) but over the last 10 years the one thing I won't miss is having to take 10 photos just to get the right angle so my double chin isn't showing!

ohhh you lovely lot have bought a smile to my face and a tear to my eyes reading your posts .....I can totally get where your coming from and those things we hate....
My worse things are ALWAYS BEING HOT!!!!!! god how I hate this now maybe it's my age ...haha and the fact I'm a hairdresser and working with dryers all day but I truly can't wait till I can be one of those skinny minnis who are always complaint they are SOOOOOOO COLD and stand shivering by the heaters...actually I don't know if it's being hot I hate or them ...hahaha.
The other thing is scanning the room to see what's the best route to a table or out of the place without having to move people or try and squeeze yourself in so your arse or tummy doesn't protrude onto someone's table!!!! and then getting to the seat and your wondering will it hold me and will my backside fit in it ......
two of my pet hates .

Tues 19th April
Well after learning my lesson with the ridiculously large hot chocolate , I have returned to normal . Whatever that is ..
A visit to mums today and had to go get her fish and chips for her lunch .. Is there a better smell that just sings England ? Apart from new mown grass and the smell of rain hitting warm pavements ..
They give out a huge amount of chips at my chippy even though I ask them just for a scoop for mum , they never listen .. I got it all laid out for mum on her tray/table , and she dived in like a hungry pup .. Didn't even come up for air until she was stuffed .
As I took what was remaining away to bin it , I poked through the chips looking for the crunchy bits . Now that , are habits that come up to the surface like that little red devil on the shoulder that whispers sweet nothing in your ear !
I'm divorcing that bloody devil ..
I simply wrapped it all up and binned it without a morsel passing my lips
My god I should be sainted , I feel so holy ..Hahahaha !
On another thread today I said how I was feeling .
A couple of months ago , I was sleepy , spotty , lazy , effortless , bloated , unhappy , snappy , bad tempered . Came home from work every night with a bag of 'goodies' . Didn't usually have a dinner as i was probably to lazy to make anything .. So just munched my way through maybe 2 bags of sweets or chocolates , you know the ones they put on offer for £1 a bag .. Maybe a big bag of popcorn , or crisps , or cheese and crackers ..
How I've not had a heart attack is beyond me ..
This last week has found me so different .. I feel younger in myself .. Now when I feel tired it's because I am needing sleep , and not just a bloated , massive sugar drop sleep ..
My head feels clear along with my insides . I'm more relaxed in myself than I have been for years ..
I realised also today , that I havnt taken my Citalopram ( panic attacks ) since I started the liver diet ! I just totally forgot to take it and I found the packet today while putting my undies away .. Maybe that's another reason I feel so clear headed ?
This evening in the shower I simply reached down to shave my legs and did it without any effort , I found I could stand in there longer without knees aching so quickly ..
My skin also feels different , don't know how to describe it . Softer and pinker ..
I don't get that fat person odour now either . I think that has a lot to do with a bad diet ?
Good god I ramble , apologies , but it is cathartic to keep a diary .
Late at night when sitting here , listening to his lordship softly snoring , my mind wanders off in all directions . And I can see out of the corner of my eye , my Alfie cats luminous eyes looking at me like alien eyes , all lit up and glowing !
I'm back to work tomorrow and I'm looking forward to it !
Sweet dreams all

Morning..this is all really positive well done and keep at it! Those food demons will always be there but as long as you don't let those bad habits creep I you will do just fine! Just think about the money you have spent on your operation..that stops me having an extra treat don't you worry!
Have a great day and keep positive x

Morning Kar 
The money is probably at the front of my thoughts .. My family has invested their hard earned money in me and if I fail , I've failed them , so I dont intend to do that ..
Do I feel very protective of my surgery as I have self funded ? Yes I probably do .. It's a touchy subject I'm sure ..
Morning Niccie I'm going to keep those demands away . I hope I never get complacent about this gift I've been given .. I want to treat my band with respect , always ..

Your right in every way .. I could not even get a conversation about NHS weight loss . I got cut off as soon as I mentioned it .. I don't know why , maybe other than my knees I am healthy , so I wouldn't have made the grade so to speak ..
I will never regret funding my surgery , never . And looking back now it's not an awful amount of money to raise .. We spend more than that on cars and holidays don't we ?
So paying money to ultimately saving my life and giving me a life is something I will not regret .
And I will treasure it and respect it all the more ..

I salute you Niccie .. That's a chunk of money a month for sure . Hard earned money and a massive investment for the future ..
I know someone who pays that a month for a car ! Well actually £250 .. All that money just to drive a lump of metal about , it will never be worth what he's paying for it , yet he gave me one of those old fashioned stares when I said I'd spent money for an op .
I know what's worth the money in the long run !
When his car is being sold at a fraction of the total price he paid for it , I can then give him a look that says , mine is still paying dividends for me , and the rest of my life ..
