Hiya,

Your dedication to beetroot is admirable. I've been meaning to have a go at making beetroot cake for ages - don't know if they're any recipes out there was going to make my own up :D. I think you may well have inspired me.

Have you tried Beetroot and apple juice? I tried some from M&S once ... very very very very nice.

I forget how tasty and good for you beetroot is. I think I'll buy some next week and have a beetroot salad with poached salmon mmmmmm. Thankyou Lost!

Anyway so pleased your enthusiasm hasn't waned and things are looking up for you honey. :bliss:

Don't be a stranger though eh? :hug99:

Hi,
Really cant work out how to use this site!! Bit of a technophobe!!
Had my band done Dec 2009....weight loss slow but going down.
Had my band tightened last week .....now have 9mls in a large band.

Current weight 253lb

seem to be getting heart burn on and off now :(
 
Hi Karen, well done on having your band sweetheart. The site will get easier for you (honest) I was the same lol. Are you feeling lots of restriction now you have had your fill??? I'm just a bit concerned about the heartburn you're having as this could be a sign your band is too tight. If it continues give your team a ring as this should'nt be happening. Let us know how you get on as we are all here to help you if we can. Good luck xx

Morning all, Karen I hope your heartburn eases soon.

Neen, now I've identified the problem (nibbling out of habit) I've managed to nip it in the bud (rather than the mouth!!!) and am now much more positive. :) Thank you for asking.

I also had beetroot yesterday, it was lovely.

I usually weigh myself twice a week, mostly a Monday and Friday.

Hope everyone has a great day xx
 
Welcome Karen!!! You have some great advice from Gaynor there. If it's persisting for too long or you start having a lot of sickness and trouble getting liquids down, you need to go get a mil out again.
Sometimes only a tiny tweak makes a big difference.

Sarah I am so glad you have a bit of faith in your own abilities...I hope some of the tips helped and I'm glad you are going to try and sort out the nibbling.
It is a toughie if it's been automatic for a long time but it's not impossible to get over.
 
Morning all - Im off sick today :cry:two people in my very small office had gastric flu last week and my daughter had a virus. I haven't made my mind up yet what I have got, feel hot/cold, sore throat, ears and painful sinus, stomach churning and I look as white as a sheet - not nice :(

Afternoon laydee's and gents ( if there are any lurking in here) lol

I hope e1 is well - I am looking forward to getting another band fill next week - This weight isnt shifting at all still (not a single lb in 14 weeks,but havent gained nothing either) Roll on next Friday and fill me up lol
 
Good luck with the fill hun, it must be really disheartening to not loose for all that time, well done on maintaining though :D XX
