Rake Lane/North Tyneside Update

Hi Minniemouse I would get your friend to ring as she should of had a nurse appointment by now it might be they are waiting for forms of weightmanagment or she is lost in the system. Don't worry about wasting doctors and nurses time as you don't speak to them only the receptionist they book all your appointments I would of hated to be like your friend and because I didn't ring if i hadn't heard anything and be put back months. X x x
 
its quite a good diet sheet actually lol....even got bacon n sausages on lol.
its manageable and has things on ud prob buy anyways on ya regular shoppin list but then agen theres quite a few things tht i dont usually buy aswel lol.
19th may was my seminar so ive managed it in pretty good time! roll on the 28th! not long left at all for us!!!xx
 
the surgeons dont like doing the bands anymore, although they still WILL do them if its for the patients best intrest....have u considered looking in2 the sleeve or bypass? higher success rates make it worth looking in2 plus u dont need 2 go bk 4 fills or if it slips etc.
louise did u say u had had ur pre op ass already? if so what happens? lol xx
 
Hi everyone :) how are you all doing ? How's the pre op diet going wencho ? I think we have got away with it very easy compared to most as it doesn't seem that bad, probably won't be saying that when I'm on it lol. I went to lidil today got my veg ( yuk ) and fruit also got a nice turkey breast to cook :) much cheaper than supermarkets. Going to start mine on Monday as just want to get started lol. It's funny as I was starting to feel nervous start of this week I feel alot better knowing that both appointments now complete and all systems go. Only op day to go now and pre op diet :) how did the last meal go Louise my mam is trying to persuade me to go to taybarns but I'm having none of it as I could easily eat 7 pounds on in one meal it would take my whole pre op diet to get it off lol. Good luck everyone who's starting out hope you get dates for seminar soon :) speak soon not long now :) x x x
 
Good luck hun ;)

the food side of it is going fine......few hunger pangs now n then but im managing.....only concern im having is its day 5 now and ive jst weighed myself today and only lost 0.4 of a kg?????/ thought id be 4-5lb down by now :( xx
 
Not too worry wencho as long as you haven't gained you will be fine and have a nice small liver :) but I have noticed that the meal planner they give you don't add up as in day 1, 4-6oz of chicken breast is far too much as it should only be 2-3oz and that would mean we are having 4 portions of protein not 3 what were allowed (confused) :( I might just gave to keep it simple hahaha and don't understand where the sugerfree jelly on the meal planner is in the options lol. Keep up the good work your doing great not long now :) x
 
ive not put on but only lost 0.4kg in 5days which has upset is a bit...i assumed id lose almost a stone in the 2 weeks like most do but tht just isnt happening lol...........cud only happen 2 me!!!!!!!!!!
how u gettin on with everything? xxx
 
I think are body's go into shock when on restricted diet and try and hold onto as much as possible but as soon a surgeon looks at your liver he will be very happy, also if you keep loosing at this rate you would have lost 1.5kg by op :) I'm doing great both appointments complete and have a huge bruise on my arm off where they took blood at pre op, I'm sure they are butchers lol I'm going to start pre op diet tomorrow got all of my stuff and raring to go. X
 
im assumin my liver will say it all regardless if my silly body wants 2 hold on 2 my fat.......it has 2 learn its gota go n the sooner it deals with tht the better all round.......ive had a harsh word and told my body jst 2 let gooooooooooo we dnt need/want the fat hahahaha.......thts good...apart from ya bruise like haha.
cant believe how close it is now....wil b opped on n on tht losers bench b4 we no it :) xxx
 
I'm SO confused by the diet sheet too. I'm considering the milk diet for the 1st week then the diet sheet for the 2nd week. I know a few people who have mixed up the diets like this and they were fine. I think I just need the simplicity of knowing what I can & can't have for the 1st week to get my head around it then move onto the thinking bit when I'm not starving lol!!
Good luck girls.
xx
 
Ye Louise it's so confusing I done my first day yesterday and just counted all portions I was allowed to have don't think I'm going to even look at the meal planners. For breakfast I had a yogurt., dinner ham sandwich with salad and fruit, tea I had carrots, cabbage and and 3oz of turkey breast then fruit. Supper I had one protein left so had 3 slices of ham. 2 portions of milk. Went ok bar the fact my stomach was churning eating the veg, I wish I liked veg plain. But it will be worth it in the end :) don't blame you for wanting to do milk diet, don't see what harm it could do if you mix but don't no why they don't do it now as that was the pre op diet he had mentioned at seminar (the dreaded milk diet) lol I'm off to get multi vitamins today as I haven't ventured into boots yet. Good luck everyone x x x
 
Think I'm gonna stick with the milk diet for now then see how I feel next week. It's proven to shrink the liver so as far as I'm concerned it's OK lol.
The jelly is in your snacks hun and is quite nice actually. You can make mousse with the jelly & a muller light which tastes far naughtier than it is.
I've managed to get vitamins but the only ones I could find are the Bassett's Young Adult chewy ones and boots own A-Z.
Good luck hun. 2 weeks tomorrow. Eeeeek. (or 1 for a certain lady!!)

Does anyone know which multi vitamin you take after op, I can't remember :) I remember vaguely she said a one that dissolved onto your tongue complete a-z but the book says chewable multi vitamin which is the one I'm using now. So should I buy the dissolvable complete a-z or stick so confused lol x
