My journey starts here..

[Banderbird]

So having a bad means u r still hungry? I'm glad nothing came but up but it must feel really uncomfortable with having stuff "stuck"
Keep going girliexxx u have done so well. Glad ur colds betterxxxxx

You still feel hunger until they've got your fills right and you're in the 'green' zone, which is the optimum restriction. I've only had one fill, so I'm far from there yet. It can take 3, 4, 5 - or more to get it right, with tiny adjustments each time.

Thinking about it, the main thing which gets stuck is bread, so in future I think bread will have to be a no-go - which is fine. It's already taking me soooooo long to eat it, it's boring!

Oh and thanks

Glad your colds feeling better! Rubbish your still feeling hungry tho! Are u eating a lot of slider foods? X x

Well, my Weetabix for breakfast is, but I think the band is a bit tighter in the mornings, and anything else would get stuck!

I had a lovely salad tonight with crab meat, and that went down beautifully.

I need a really clear list of what they mean by dry and crunchy. I've got a call from the dietician tomorrow so I'll see what she says.

I've also booked my second fill for 21st Nov, but the time is really inconvenient for work and the only other day they've got is two days before my holiday, so that's no good.

As I have got closer to green, my hunger has got less and less. I have 6.5 in 10 after 3 fills. I tend to crave rather then get hungry. It is hard thou, figuring out what to eat and not, I tend to make a wholemeal wrap filled with loads of salad and chicken little salad cream or mayo. I can eat about half of that and feel full and stay full. And I'm happy with that portion size.
At the moment I am happy with my weight, I would like to be smaller but not desperate. (Size 10/12 weight 10.4) but because of that I'm thinking it's ok to eat crisps biscuits and chocolate! And it's not...
Had my loverly sis over from Australia for 3 weeks, she returns on Thursday and that's when I will be sorting my ass out.. Serious work starts then. In the mean time, I am holding off getting another fill, I think If I ate better then I would be more or less green and losing.

Finally went back to spinning tonight!

Disappointingly the usual girl didn't take the class and it was a stand-in who was rubbish, so it didn't feel like much of a work out.

Still, it was a start and I'm glad I went back at last, I've missed it!

 

[sarahrob]

Good on you, even if it didn't feel too strenuous it's still better than sitting on the sofa watching telly! Hopefully the normal instructor will be back next time

 

[Banderbird]

To be fair, if the normal girl was there, it would have killed me, so maybe it was just as well!!

I go for my first fill on Tuesday..hoping its not painful dint care too much for needles
I also hope after first fill I do feel a little different
Like you Im hungry between meals and don't really want to start snacking, having said that I am trying to up my cals a bit this week xxx

 

[Banderbird]

Don't worry lovely, it's not painful at all.

The difference I've felt after the first fill has been minimal, if I'm honest, but it will take another 2 or 3 I expect to reach that elusive restriction.

It's a slow process but we'll get there :hug99:

I love your new avatar, very pretty!

Well done 11 pound is great xx

 

[Banderbird]

Can't wait for my next fill...I would really like to start feeling a difference.

I hardly feel like I've got a band at the moment, I can eat anything and it's getting pretty tough.
