I self inject once a day, it helps to stop blood clots.
 
It's ok actually. I inject my lower stomach, they say away from belly button and any wounds. They will show you how in hospital, nurse did my first one, I took over from there x
 
morning...well one week today until my sleeve..yyeeeyy.
I have had a weigh in this morning, another pound down that's almost a stone in two and a half weeks although I didn't properly start the LSD until Sunday 10th Aug so pretty pleased with that. Just another weeks of Weetabix and turkey...thank god....
 
I just weighed my self at the start of my pre op diet mid July I was 24st 13 , I now weigh 21st 13! Yippies!

Well done on the losses everyone!

Well done kezzy. I'm on day 11 of mine and I'm sick of milk and water, I really look forward to my bedtime Bovril for a new flavour lol

I'm in such an emotional state today. I am so scared of having to self inject morning of op & 2 weeks post op. Has anyone post op had to do this?

I see you are having a band, so I think you will be saved from the needles ;)

I have to do my own first one as I have to do it morning of op before I go in. All I was told at my pre op appointment was stick it right in them push the plunger fully down. Was told I could do lower stomach or thighs.

At least you get to chew and have some flavour lol I have 4 pints of milk then a mug of Bovril all day everyday. If I want anything else its water only.

Ah well only one more day to get through!!!!!!!!

It really is that easy ! ;)

You do get some bruising, and stings for a few seconds after, but just give the area a good rub after and I find that helps x x
