Have to say I'm the same Kim. I won't coz I know once I have it will go on from there. But if you can control that then ok. Everything in mini moderation but overall making better choices!

I know what you mean, but I'm using the fact that I can only eat 4 as empowerment. My brain and body are cooperating! In my old headspace I'd have eaten them all and been sick. I ate each one slowly, enjoyed the texture and felt full at 4, folded the bag and put them away. I felt so pleased I could do that.

Everything will be fine I'm sure! One set back is enough for anybody. Your op date has come around very fast as well. Are you more or less nervous this time?
I'm ok yeah
I have just figured out today that my body has been saying no to all things bread-y :/ I was expecting to never wanna eat sweets/choc again but instead I can't cope with bread/pastry that kinda thing. I had 1 small bite of hubby's pizza earlier, was a struggle to swallow. My brain told me no. It went down fine, didn't get stuck, nothing like that but the chewing just felt wrong. It wasn't tasty, wasn't anything really, just blegh. I tried a tortilla wrap last night. One bite put me right off! Very strange. Come to think of it, it was the same when I tried rice. My body doesn't want carbs anymore! Potato is ok, so not all carbs. Can't be a bad thing!

You're very brave Flick! You try stuff I can't even imagine eating yet!!
First period since op today. Sadly the op didn't miraculously cure that pain! Ouch! Lol

Brave? Or foolish?
I mainly have yoghurt, berries, cottage cheese, meats, mashed potato, veg etc I am trying lots of different foods. But often just a couple of mouthfuls, Chewing til there's nothing left! I have high tolerance. There's been a couple of things I really can't have which have made me sick. My portions are still extremely small. Smaller than with pureed food! I have bigger eyes than belly syndrome lol
Im desperate not to lose my hair
It happened once before when I was at uni. Took years to recover and I also had alopecia recently. My hair is down to my bum so it looks horrible all thin and skanky. Its enivitable but im guna try my best. Centrum chewy vits are the bees knees too!

I'm still a soup monster. Not good I know, but I try and have highest protein ones!
My hair seems ok and my skin and nails are super healthy since I stopped having sugar

It doesnt usually kick in until 3 months post op so all could change. You could be a lucky one! My skin & nails have always been healthy. Its my hair that suffered when at uni because of me pretty much starving myself. Its alot better now though. Never had a problem with regrowth. Just thinning during that time Hoping for the best!

Kim any new on your mum yet? How your feel yourself ?
Flick, stick to the boots one or the wii as you have used them before (or go to another boots may be in Havant )
I'm not going to worry about hair loss as Wednesday I visited a close friend of mine (my age) who had to shave her head Friday as so much of her hair was coming out from her chemo. She has breast cancer. She's had long, straight blonde hair in the same style for the 30 years she's been my friend! Not saying I want my hair to thin but she's so brave I just think I would have the right to complain. I'm just going to have milk with protein powder for my morning and afternoon snacks for about 4-6 months x

Really glad she is back from surgery. Driving must feel good (not so trapped) make sure those shopping bags aren't to heavy. Yes I've got some impact Whey Isolate protein power unflavoured from my protein. com did a bit of research and this was recommended to me by someone using it. It high quality and a good price. Went for unflavoured so it can go in anything. Only going to use for 2-4 months. X

Audra, how much is the protein powder if you dont mind me asking?
I think I will stick to the wii. My friend doesnt mind me borrowing it for 10 mins once a week. Not sure if thats too often though.
The cystitis has come back. I did the sachets and its back again Should I just wait til monday or contact 111? Its driving me up the wall already!

Off course I don't. It was £20 for 1kg on that web site but marvel milk powder is a cheaper alternative you can put in your breakfast and milky drinks. If you call 111 do it early tomorrow morning as the wait to speak to a GP will be up to 6hrs and tell the call handler you spoke to the GP via phone on the Thursday and they said if sachet didn't work to be seen by a GP. That's really important as your get seen quicker that way.x
