Hi Mimi, I am doing OK thanks, still bleeding 
Have a ultra sound scan next week but I know its all down to the Clexane injections after surgery, well I am 99.99% sure.
Other than that I have another appointment for a fill at the same clinic in a few weeks so I am hoping there will be no issues finding it this time.
I was on holiday over the bank holiday and ate some things I would not normally eat, I had fish and chips, well I was at the beach and I did only eat half of the fish and half of the chips so... Not sure how the weigh in will go this week, but thats OK it will be what it will be
Do you feel any restriction yet? I have 5mls and I feel none. But the nurse did say it would be about 8,9,10, or 11 mls before I would feel restriction so still a way to go yet.
How is all with you? Looking forward to the kids going back to school? My little one goes full time bit scared for him, new class, new teacher, he does not like change, but I am hoping as it is the same pupils he will adjust ok. My baby!!! I just want to keep him home with me

I am exactly the same Mimi ... But it's great that you realise that this is a cycle so it will not last forever. I could eat a horse almost literally at these times, and then feel much more restriction the other 2-3 weeks of the month ... And this is one reason for not pushing to be restricted too greatly from the band fills. Plan into your overall approach and it is fine ... Go girl

Wow Mimi that is great 3lbs woo hoo you!! I lost 3lbs too so SNAP!
PS I eat chocolate in one form or another every single day. I figure a little of what you fancy does you good. It is better to have one chocolate mousse than feel deprived and binge on a whole pack of Maltesers (and I mean family pack )
So go you! Wow just noticed we both have 82lbs to go as well, we are like banded sisters! sisters, sisters there were never such devoted sisters...OK I will stop singing now

Yeah I totally agree, it gets easier to figure it out with each passing day. It is really just listenting to my body and not pushing it food wise. I mean I could totally but what would be the point of having the surgery just to do what I did before? If you always do what you always did, you always get what you always got... I don't know who said that but its so true. If you want something different you have to do something different and I am definitely doing different and it is coming in my stride now.
Like your new weight loss listing, I am always so facinated to see where people started and how they progress. To be into the 14's from the 17's is WOW, just WOW! Whatever you are doing it is working so keep at it my friend ;D
