Hahaha I'm a daily weigher I really have to stop that post op lol I wonder how much my 70% of stomach weighs after they take it out should be a pound or two x
daily weigher also n thts how i panicked last week on pre op diet thinkin nowt was happening haha 7.2lb wasn't bad at all tho they sed 4-10lb is wat usually comes off...main thing is to def think about liver rather than weight but easier sed than done!!! u panic thinkin not guna b good enuf n ul not no til after if it was ok n tht u were done haha....so much has went on this last year and so much still to go....this is just the beginning of the nxt step reali isn't it. will have to sort a meeting out aswel!!! xxx
7.2lb is great weight loss on this diet but know what you mean about panicking and just hoping to have done enough. Only when you wake up with it done is when you will truly believe it lol. Will def have to meet up for a coffee when we are all finished it's great knowing we have all started this journey together and will be finishing it together all within a week of each other. We will all be able to share experiences post op too hope you had a good night sleep and wasn't in to much pain x x x

Pain isn't bad cos of morphine etc but my wounds seeped so had sterry strips n bandage put on but am fine still....had 1 n a bit yoghurts 2day....guna try ice cube try mince n pot n veg soon!!! Itl b yummy to no its real food lol....Im on top of the world and looking forward to wat lies ahead xxxx
Wow wencho does it feel funny eating I take it your not feeling sick do you feel ok on pureed food as most hospitals are liquid only for 2 weeks but we aren't I won't be complaining though x x x
I felt fine eating it just took my time and i didn't feel sick....sure in time il come across something that will sicken me but do far so good. Got some baby food in aswel to have as a change if fancy it...baby 1st spa bol n Sunday dinner haha xxx
Hahaha mmmm baby's choc pudding used to love nicking a taste of that. I have got some semolina in used to love it when I worked in a residential home couldn't eat tapioca though yuk x
I'm a nervous wreck now. Still no weight loss lol. I have no idea what's going on. My bra is swinging around my back (too much info I know) but the evil scales refuse to move. I'm seriously considering throwing them out after the op lol.
So glad you're well Wenco. It really does steady any nerves!!

Hi Louise you lost a great amount of weight in the past couple of months it's just your body holding on and stalling due to months of dieting your liver will be tiny and surgeon can see when they open you up who has stuck to it. Not long now I have started packing my bag at last lol x

Can you think of anything else I would need ? Dont think I will take books might get a few magazines while there as I'm more of a tv person, it's getting so close now only a few more days to go I'm so exited so glad it was after Christmas as Iv had a fab time with my little one and it's been one of the best Christmas yet even if I couldn't eat anything lol. Woo hoo not long now x x x
Aww Suzie how sweet are you!!
I've got much the same. I'm taking my kindle as last time I was in hospital I read a book a day and with my bowel condition they might keep me in.
I'm getting my hair put in a scalp plait as it really irritates me when it feels dirty or gets in my face so I won't need any hair products & will get it washed when I'm home.
Was considering taking my ipod incase I can't sleep as sometimes wards can be noisy..
I can't believe after 2 yrs it's only a few days away!
xx
i only used my jarmas and my magazine lol...everything else stayed put haha. 1st day was to weak to wash etc so didn't bother and then i got out nxt day so just showered at home instead...although i did use lip balm as my lips got pretty dry. don't panic Louise my scales/body did exactly same to me then it all came off at once....the woman i was in with dint lose a single pound but her liver was fine as she had stuck to it xxxx
Never herd of a scalp plait before sounds like a great idea as no need to fuss around doing hair I so can't believe it's only a few days away. What time is your injection on Tuesday they have booked me in at 4 as they think I'm a morning case. X
