Wow Anna that's an amazing loss well done

As someone said to me on here... Celebrate how far you come and don't worry about how far you have to go. You're doing amazing!

You too Tracey you're loosing we all are smaller than when we started this process - I've lost 17lb since consultation and 48lb since last Xmas .., so it's still going down X

Thanks lin how are you doing hun? Xx

 

[lin davey]

Anna, I seem to be doing a little better each day thank you, although I must admit I am getting really fed up with milk which I suppose after nearly eight weeks is understandable I suppose. Taking things a day at a time. Thanks for asking and you take care xx

 

[niccie]

I still have a pint a day, yummy! Are you still on liquids? I had to do them 4 weeks post op x

 

[lin davey]

Hi Niccie, yes still on fluids until next week, then two weeks purée, I will continue to have milk though as long as it's nice and cold you can't beat a glass of milk. Hope you are still doing ok x

Yes great thanks but not convinced this will be a good week! I've been decorating all week, some days I have managed 10,000 steps but not many and I've had to eat 900-1000 calories as I felt a bit dizzy at times! We'll see Saturday X good work with the milk x

 

[Anna1980]

Well a week after my second fill and I'm really starting to have to think about what I'm eating now as had a few things stuck the past two days and really worried about doing any damage, I'm having to have a warm drink about 20 mins before food as it seems to help wake things up before I eat, lots of things seem to be a definite no now

 

[lin davey]

Glad your fill seems to be working Anna, hope you can work with it now to see those losses. Take care xx

 

[traceyb79]

What sort of things are you finding that you can't eat?

 

[Anna1980]

I had a disaster with chicken last night and bread, today I had to fetch up some beef off my roast so anything chewy the pain last night was horrific I was so embarrassed as I was out it just had to come back up to stop the pain then I was stressing I'd done some damage xx

 

[traceyb79]

Oh no, that's a nightmare if you were out X how did you explain it.

I had the same thing sat night. I ate a cheese roll to quickly and it was soooo painful for so long it eventually came up.

 

[Anna1980]

It was luckily I was only with my daughter I just had to dash to the loo I hate waste though and felt gutted I'd left so much but pleased my band is now working, think I'm going to have to avoid eating out for a while now, the pain was horrific like you say it lasts for ages I just got worried I'd done some damage xx
