Another fill done... Now up to 6.35 ml in a 10 cc band! Weight loss is quite slow and seem to have been around this weight for weeks now!! Gave myself a kick up the rear and to start a fresh here on in!!

So new start new thread!

At least being on liquid stage again I'm guaranteed a loss lol x

Hi Tanychance,
How long have you been banded and how much have you lost so far? Do you think the fill is going to help? I was on the liquid diet for 2 weeks post op and gained a pound the second lol could only happen to me

I was banded 15 th march! Seems like years ago now! To date I have lost 34lb but I have staggered around that weight for weeks!! I have had restriction from the start but it seems to not last long! I have lost inches when I haven't lost weight so not all doom and gloom! X

I'm struggling to manage meals! In fact the only meal that hasn't hurt is a plate of cooked veg and a bit of gravy! Had a fill on the 2nd ... Appetite is zero so I'm forcing myself to eat! Do I go back to liquids for a couple of days?? Gradually building appetite up... Any advice is appreciated!! X

Food shouldn't hurt and coating it in gravy is turning into slider food, which you shouldnt be doing as you should be able to get a variety of textures down, especially for the protein intake needed, so you're either eating too big bites, not pausing and chewing enough, or your band is too tight? What's your thoughts? Xx

 

[tanychance]

Think it's a mixture of them all! First few mouthfuls are the worst I find then I can eat! Gonna go back to fluids tomorrow and mush stage Tuesday and give it til Thursday and if I'm still struggling will ring them for a small defill!! Thanks for reply Jo x

Well here I am and as of today I am in the 13's!!!! 13.13 to be exact!! I should be elated but yet again my waste of a space husband has deflated me!

At 5.30 today he flies out to Beijing to embark on what should be an opportunity of a lifetime to work! Sounds great doesn't it???

Yesterday I had the misfortune of finding out he has spent the last 3 months in contact with another woman!!!

I am gutted that ten years together has come to this and the timing is ridiculous but it also isn't the first time! With everything that happened in the past and the weight gain I found it hard to be intimate with him and this in itself caused problems!!

So I had this op to try and make me feel better about it all and to help our marriage as I was getting very depressed about my weight!

I'm supposed to be taking him to the airport later but really feel I can't!! Is this wrong to not want to be near him when he thinks I should be supporting him? Just don't know what to do......

 

[dinkydink]

Why should you be supporting him?! Cheeky so and so. Make him walk!!!!! Xxxx

 

[rose2022]

Sorry but I'm with dinky... except my husband would need carrying to the airport after me performing my own surgery on him!!! You've got a new life ahead of you and if he isn't special enough to want to be a part of it then HIS LOSS!! seriously gutted to hear he's done that though, keep strong hun x
