thanks toni going first thing.
12th day post op and i ate today for brakefast some porridge, snack muler light yoghurt, soup for lunch, porridge for dinner, coffee with milk and a spoon of powderd milk, warter in between, thats me for today the only thing is this bloody wound which hopefully i will get sorted tommorrow,havent heard from my mum all day which i am so so glad i just couldnt cope with her sly abusive remarks, then i have a call at 7.30pm all she said was alright, good, are you comming up tommorrow. i thought why she asking me am i comming to hers and i have just realised its mothers day, method in madness funny how she just expects a card you have to be a mother first not just give birth to a person, to warrent a card let alone a bunch of flowers and a present. i wont be going anyway nothing is ever good enough for her any way even if my leg was falling off she would of still called saying the same. I DONT THINK SO.

Mothers Day is March 18th chick. My partner said its tomorrow earlier. But looked on the calendar and online.

Sorry your wound is giving you gip :(

Been to my doctors had my wound cleaned and changed and thank god its drying up now, i couldnt resist weighing my self its the first time since my op as i am not going to weigh each day only because i know what i am like i will become obsessive, well i have lost 5kg which is 11Ibs in 16 days so thats not bad at all i think, shows i must be doing something right the next time i get weighed is at the 3month assesment at the murrayfield with dietition and surgeon so i will see how much i have lost then, feeling a bit more in high spirits now because i am not in that much pain so i can take anything on the chin when i am feeling like this, thanks to all who have supported me the last few days its much appriciated hope i can return the favour you are fantastic. well thats me for today happy healing, waiting, loosing weight or what ever stage you are at i wish you all the very best. xxxxx

hi toni i feel fine, hope your head ache has gone now you dont half suffer a lot with them, maybee after the op when you have lost a bit of weight you wont get as much pressure as you do now i really do hope so for your sake.xxxxx

fuffs you are doing excellant your weight loss is just great a statement to your hard work and dedication.xxxxx

day 19 pre op goodness were does the time go? i have had my coffee and tablets, some porridge, and going to have the veg soup i made yesterday for my lunch i will blitz it first of course, then i will freeze the rest and have it as and when. i never really froze any food i just seemed to get it as and when cos at first you can barely eat that much and one tin of soup does 2 servings, i am still on the soft stage but feel i can eat differant things that are allowed at this stage, were at first it was mainly soups, yoghurts and warter. hope you are all well take care we are all together in this journey. xxxx
