BandedHuns Mad Fat Diary

[sharon2014]

Hey love,

Have you experienced aNy burping? Think maybe drank little too quick and that's why but just wanted to see if anyone had it? Xx

 

[kurstywursty]

Sharon, quite a lot when I eat. I was out with my friend yesterday. She had a band 6 years ago and I noticed she burped a few times through the meal. She has just had a fill bad it was funny to know now what it is she is experiencing

She has her band emptied out a bit to go on holiday every year and gets it filled when she comes back. :-( don't see me ever doing that. I don't like any procedures and I would be worried that it might damage my band

Thanks Kirsty!! Was just worried was doing something wrong!!

I agree with you about the defill... If it ain't broke don't fix it! Next year in holiday I don't think the band will hold me back...I can still have great time without gorging on food...everything in moderation !

Yeah Hun I find if I don't eat regular my band goes really tight so even if I'm not hungry I'll have a small snack. X x x

 

[BandedHun]

Sharon sorry, had a pants day yesterday. Daughter jet lagged and OH still throwing up.

Burping - hell yes! All the time. I was not so windy at the start although I did experience some but now I burp 3-8 times easily whilst trying to eat a meal.

I realise why I get so much pain when ever I eat ... Like dreamers made me realise - I wait till I get super hungry - then I eat too quickly - too big a bites and them I'm left in pain , PBing to the max... So I must eat little and often to try keep the band from tightening.

I'm still in massive weight stall. 11.13/12.0.
Trying to get at least 7lbs off but I just can't. I went to slimming world yesterday. I struggle with it as it's lots of fruit and veg and I don't know about u guys and girls but I can't get grapes/ strawberries down well. A whole banana fills me up & that I use crackers / biscuits to get my calorie in take up... Now I've gotta try have the meat , fruit and Veg... :-( So my fridge is now FULL of chicken , ham , lean steak mince and fruits- plums peaches strawberries grapes yoghurts and salad ... I look healthy but I think ill struggle with calories now. Guess I'll be that girl that shovels mouths full of meat into her mouth from the fridge door open at night. YUM!!!

That's all my news gossip and scandal ... I brought a six week membership to trail out and see if I loose weight in that time. If I can't get on then I'll go back to doing my own MFP weight loss ;-)

Hope everyone's good and the newly banded Sharon is getting on well

I have done slimming world tons of times over the past 20 years. It's a great diet for a pig like me who could make chilli for a family of four and scoff it down - the lot that is- one one sitting

Good luck with it. I think for me there would be too much to eat to get the protein in. I think original days would be better than green or extra easy. I would love to hear how you are doing with it

I am hoping to get back on to Atkins once I start eating proper food again. Again I worry about getting a balanced diet. But am only day 11. Hopefully as time goes on I will be able to eat mor. I am getting hungry and could defo be sitting grazing. Some willpower getting employed here

 

[sharon2014]

Thanks ladies!!

That makes sense!

I have been careful with drinking my shake and so far no burps but think all to easy to forget and eat lots and suffer!!

Kirsty I used to be like that, used to eat 2-3 peoples portions and then few hours later be back again!!

I used slimming world few years ago and worked initially but as usual everything went on again..maybe different with the band x

I think the primarily protein based diets agree with me more and feel less hungry !

Yesterday I got one marks and spencer tomato and basil soups and blended with protein powder..was like eating Bolognese without the pasta and meat lol..can't wait to finish it tonight!!

Xxx

 

[BandedHun]

Well I've managed to loose 4st 2lb with out a diet just cutting if portions it's literally now I want to try and cut the crap I eat out of my diet as I seem to not be able to go a day with chocolate and crisps.... Where I can eat more too my portions are bigger so more crap gets consumed. I'm only trying six weeks and see how it goes... So far I'm not doing well. Struggle with the fruits too much and like my carbs and crap :-(

Will see though I've got to do it for my daughter she's put on so much weight and I don't want her to suffer all her life like I did

Oooh that sounds lovely

I have moved on to purée today. I was getting concerned about all the carbs I am consuming. And they are making my hunger kick back in. So today I have had:-

5 tablespoons puréed chilli

Thick homemade veg soup half cup

5 tablespoons of corned beef and baked beans

5 tablespoons of my chicken dish I just cooked, it is yuuummmmeeee!

I cooked a whole chicken with a leek and 5 stalks of celery, cooked it slow for ages, like soup. Ten mins before the end I added in a full head of broccoli. I put half the stock aside, stripped the chicken meat and returned it to the pot with some of the stock and whizzer it all up. It is gorgeous. Low fat, virtually no carbs (about 25 in the whole pot) and really high protein

Then I shoved a good handful, of lentils into the small amount of stock I had left, cooked and whizzer them and have two pots of a wee lentil dhal type meal

What a domestic goddess!!! I have never cooked as much as I have these three weeks lol. But the freezer is bulging with tiny pits of food

So today I reckon carb wise I have had:

5 in the chilli
10 in my baked beans
5 max in my chicken
10 in my homemade veg soup

I will have a danio yoghurt later which will have 11.6

All comes in about 46 carbs. I would like to stay under 30 but until I can start eating real food it will be hard

I do not gave a clue how many calories are in my days eating, but with really small portions I am hoping not more than 800

Sharon. I looked at getting protein powder, but it was all flavoured or in huge tubs and I didn't want to spend thirty or forty pounds without knowing what it is like. Can you taste it in your food?

How great is it to look forward to food again. My relationship with food has actually changed already I think. I just keep thinking about the best way to get the nutrients in. Lindsay had offered to take me for a ice cream when we go down to the van tomorrow. I have declined as all I can think of is how much protein will it have in it. Lol. I may be tempted though. It's at an ice. Cream parlour in the middle of nowhere where, they have their own herd and milk them to make the most gorgeous ice cream I have ever tasted. It's called Drumuir farm.

I think the lean mince is a good idea you can bulk it out with veggies that way you'll be getting your meat and veg in in one go!

I was thinking the other day in terms of a bariatric patient surely the 'ideal 5 a day' must be significantly smaller for a bariatric patient based on the fact we simply are unable to eat full portions like non bariatric peeps? Just a thought. Maybe where a whole banana fills you, you could have just half a banana and it would have the same benefit maybe? X x

I think you must be right. If we ate 5 a day we would not have enough room for our protein requirements

Thanks Sharon. I will have a go at the protein powder. Have downloaded my fit pal app

Thank god!

Today I'm back to 11:12lbs .... Yaye at 5ft10 makes me healthy 24 BMI yaye. Right so only 19lbs to get to 10st 7lbs! Whoooo let's get this show on the road.

I didn't do my SW this weekend and just are the chocolate and cr@p food but I think keeping it all down at rather than PBing all the time helped start my metabolism again.

I'm at the dieticians on 25th oct and fill day and I really want them to put it back to 5.5ml rather than the 5.25ml I currently have.

I know they were concerned as I lost 22lbs in 5 weeks last set but now it's completely nothing - no loss no gain just stall time and I still want to be so much smaller. NOT in the 9st bracket like my other half thinks! I'd be anorexic! Lol but definately low 10 would feel fab

Anyway nails done today and a cheeky Sunbed followed by CV writing ... ( does anyone know how to do them who could help .... I've been in same job for 12 years and it's all new to me )

Gotta get motivated to move my career on

Anyway have a lovely day girls and guys and I'll update tonight with how my mood is etc ....
