Banders Daily Diet and Exercise Log

[JO28172]

Yes but only 0.5ml this time. So no repeats like last month...amazing how after struggling so much it all settles n loosens!!! x

 

[miserable]

Well I can't wait for feeling restriction. Haven't felt it since surgery and slowly my bite size are increasing and can eat as much as pre op

 

[flutterby1966]

i have 9mls in a 14ml band ... so must have had a bigger stomach than you slinkier young ladies. It is really strange how all of a sudden the band loosens. I have tried to monitor closely what I have eaten calories-wise but have felt the need to eat more often and larger amounts over the past couple of weeks - (healthily apart from yesterday) as while I feel full once I have eaten my meal, the feeling diminishes quicker now. l think my fill on Saturday will be smaller than 1ml this time but better that, than the problems that come with being over-restricted.

B - 2 ryvitas, 25g cheese, approx 15 grapes
S - slimfast bar
L - salad, slice of roast beef, 20g stilton cheese, yoghurt
S - apple, latte
D - 100g chicken skewers, carrots, sprouts, peas

I really hope that whatever they but in my vans ll kick start thing. Of course font want to be over restricted just restricted enough to get into 12s.... ll see

Hi

Not posted for a while and struggling with my head hunger right now after having to have a 0.5ml defill before Christmas. So of course i did "enjoy" the food and drink over the festive period and now am trying to get back on track to lose the final 2 1/2 stone before my 40th birthday in June.
Fill booked for end of Feb and will aim to post my diet every day

B- 2 egg scrambled egg
S- 1 slice roast chicken
L- Roasted pepers, mushroom and red onion with table spoon of homous and 4 slices of roast chicken
D- Bacon, tomato and parmasean sauce over penne pasta (small portion)
S- 1 table spoon of dairlylea

Have been fairly full all day, not struggled with hunger

Would be good to keep this thread going for the newbies and maybe strugglers. So here goes but remember I am maintaining so have slightly more carbs now:

Breakfast: 50g of Dorset Cereals fruit, nut and seed museli with a small amount of skimmed.

Mid morning: handful of grapes and a small banana

Lunch: my usual salad mixture with tuna

Mid afternoon: chunky kit kat (whoops lol) and a skinny latte - nice combination.

Evening meal:WW salmon and broccoli mornay - got home from the gym at 8.00pm and after a shower needed something quick!

Will have another milky drink before bed zzzzzzzzzzzz

Exercise: half an hour walk at lunch time, 45 minute spinning class after work. According to Myfitnesspal thats 1,369 cals in my food and 748 burnt from exercise.

Gonna post every day this week to get over my first gain

B - 1/2 apple, small banana, weight watchers yoghurt
S - 2 x ryvitas and marmite (after very long dog walk)
L - 1/2 tin tuna, chestnuts, lettuce, cucumber, celery, chilli dressing
D - (weight watchers recipe) thai pork meat balls, home made egg noodles, vegetables
S - mullerlight yoghurt and kiwi fruit (planned but not yet eaten)

Back on track again, yeah

 

[tranquil_butterfly]

It is good to post and keep check on things I found it really helped me. Once I am past the mushies stage from my fill I will try and do the same - especially for the exercise which is sadly lacking right now.

[flutterby1966]

Yesterday, approx 1100 calories in total:

B - mullerlight yoghurt, 1/2 chopped apple
S - 2 x ryvitas and marmite
L - 120g chicken, cabbage, carrots, broccoli, 2tbs gravy, 1 small roast potato, 2 tbsp apple crumble and 50g evapourated milk (was out at friends for dinner so made my food a bit slider'ish' to avoid too many questions!)
D - 60g tuna, salad, sweet chilli sauce, weight watchers desert yoghurt
S - 100mls milk and 1/2 cadbury options (find a full one too sweet); 1/2 apple

Mid-week weigh in (naughty I know) - lost 2lbs of the 4lbs gained last week

 

[Sophie 124]

I can't believe it!!! You've given me back 2lbs.... I weighed this morning and have put it on despite sticking to my cals etc. Soooo annoyed! Lol xx

 

[flutterby1966]

Stick with it, they will drop back off x

 

[MrsPill]

Remember that fluid levels vary tremendously on a day to day basis, particularly in women depending on such a huge variety of reasons. Thats why its recommended that you really only weight once a week. Yes, its a mummy-ish thing to say and I do weigh more than that myself, but its really not a good idea in the whole scheme of weightloss.

 

[flutterby1966]

Mrs P you are so wise! I am useless at taking my own advice ... I sneak a peak of the scales most mornings :sigh:

B - mullerlight yoghurt with 1/2 chopped apple
S - 2 x belvita breakfast biscuits
L - 2 slices roast ham, 1 hard boiled egg, salad, weight watchers desert yoghurt
S - celery sticks
D - thai pork meatballs, green beans, homemade egg noodles

86g of protein but just over 900 calories which is too low really, so will probably have a latte coffee before bed ... feeling stuffed from my dinner at moment though.

 

[flutterby1966]

Same today as yesterday for me apart from Dinner - I am having weightwatchers chicken and broccoli lasagne (dont usually have ready meals, but a treat cos hubby is away, so I am having a chill out night)

 

[miserable]

Enjoy flutterby xxx

 

[Sophie 124]

B- strawberry mullerlight with a banana
L- salad (which I PB'd 3 times)
D- cauliflower cheese (mashed and chewed to within an inch of it's life!)
S- I will have a cadburys mini roll when I get home from work.... Been looking forward to that ALL day! Lol
Xx

 

[flutterby1966]

Sophie - a chocolate mini roll ... yum ... I wouldnt dare have a single one in the house, otherwise I would eat the whole pack. My treats have to be away from home to keep me on track.

B - mullerlight yoghurt
S - 3 X ryita and marmite
L - salad, 60g ham , hard boiled egg, 2 satsumas
S - milky coffee
D - 100g chicken breast, and something similar to ratatouille

Have to admit I had 3 chocolate eclair sweets at work - but not too bad in the scheme of things - 105 caories. I do think I need a band fill again though. My last 1/2ml one only kept me going for about 2 weeks this time. Roll on 6 March

 

[Sophie 124]

Yeah I'm not sure whether I should get another fill or not. You see, my provider is only in London every other weekend. They are here this weekend but I can't make the one after that or the one after that either. So if I don't have one this weekend, the next chance will be end of March.
I definately have restriction when I eat certain foods, and have pb'd a couple of times but i'm also still feeling quite hungry quite a lot of the time. Certainly not getting this long lasting fullness that a lot of you talk about. What do you guys think?

Anyway, today's intake....

B: Activia yoghurt and a banana
L: 1 Sausage and mash
D: Tescos Light Choices jacket potato with cheese and chives

Xx

 

[JO28172]

Only you knows Sophie, be careful as carbs don't fill you as long so depending on your diet then that could be why you aren't lasting until the next meal?

Pain these fills aren't they...but unfortunately a necessary part to our success!

Not sure if you should have a fill if recently pb'd?! real test is with non sliders...maybe try that tomorrow to help make your mind up? Xx
