My Post OP (Band) Journey 2014 onwards

[sharon2014]

Hey all,

Feeling a bit better today thank goodness! Still not 100% but the rest has helped!!

Went to my mums for dinner yesterday...managed 4 forks of macaroni and 1 meatball before I was stuffed!

My mum commented how great I was doing as she had only put little out but in the bowl I used to eat...pre band it was a full deep pasta bowl...eat sit for minute then have another 1/2 bowl!! My goodness no wonder I had issues losing weight! Crazy to think what used to consume!!

Food shopping doesn't even bother me anymore...although clothes shopping is a whole different ball game and been embracing that!!

Today's plan is to chill...get organised for busy day at work tomorrow! Got w chicken casserole from coop reduced with fresh veg and chicken which looks good I'm gonna try a little of!

It's likely to be another PJs day!!

Xx

Seems to be a time of year thing. I was poorly the other week and have been groggy ever since but bearable. Docs called me and said they want me to have my flu jab as I am eligible due to my op apparently, I gladly took it as my immune system is horrendous!

I hope you are feeling a bit better hun x

Oh Sharon I hope you feel better soon. Least you got mum looking after you and lots of positive coments. That always help keep our spirits up when life's throwing us down. There is so much going around at the mo too so I'm sure you will start to feel better soon.

How's everything with the band? Restriction etc? Xxx

 

[sharon2014]

Thanks Girls!!

I been trying to avoid all the coughs etc at work and sadly they caught me! But hopefully on the mend now!

Banded, restriction has been much better now...defo think at moment anyway this is the right amount as 1 mouthful too much and I know about it!

The losses have increased slightly...think from 20oct I lost 6.75lbs so much better than last month!

Still a ways to go but starting to see the other side and all the things haven't been able to do properly will become a reality in 2015!! (Hopefully)

Shame it took me so long to get it, been talking about a band for years now...had money to do it a few years ago and used it for something else but this is my time I feel it!!


Your both doing amazing girls!!

Xxx

my word hun you really are in a state. Have you had the flu jab" my hubby and son both had jab and got chest infection and I'm making my son wake up every 2 hrs to drink. He don't like it much but I don't want him to dehydrate. Hubby just moaning but still working poor thing. X

Bet you look a picture sharon! Nothing like a mouth ulcer...that is a sign you are run down or tired..i use to get these when i worked nights..i would go to bed in the morning with an ulcer and when i woke it was gone.
Hope you feel better soon x

 

[sharon2014]

thanks!

I actually got my flu jag in October as had asthma and was eligable...although feels similar im sure!

The ulcers are all inside my mouth only little ones but very annoying! When i was very little i got pencillin from the docs which i was allergic to and ended up with a severe reaction, that was scary, couldnt eat or drink...thankfully not as bad but same idea!

Everyone says i look white and my eyes very dark!

Was in my bed for 6pm yesterday! crazy!! i really want to go to aquafit tomorrow, hoping i feel a bit better by then..but who knows! x

 

[Kar8858]

Take it easy you don't want to be ill for Xmas and spoil it

 

[sharon2014]

Thanks Karina! Although just managed to rattle my hand on wardrobe while trying to shut door and also hold cup...defo couldn't done better if tried!!

 

[sharon2014]

Ouch!!!

 

[sharon2014]

Any another to remind myself how silly I am!! X

 

[sharon2014]

Feeling a little more human today! Thank goodness!

Also managed not much but 1/4 loss! X

 

[Kar8858]

Ouch!!!! No Xmas wrapping for you today!!

 

[kurstywursty]

Sharon I would give the aqua fit a miss for a couple of weeks. Nothing worse than trying to do too much post virus. It can lead to long term energy problems and some even say ME. So take care. Good luck on the weight loss. It's still heading In The right direction.

That hand defo has the ouch factor
