Welcome Lily and Lady! Nice to 'meet' you Lily, posts do take a while to start coming through when you are new, I think its the websites way of making sure you arent a spammer After you have posted enough times there won't be a wait any longer! In regards to eating slowly, I was naturally quite a slow eater- but I had my band three years ago now and I still sometimes forget and eat too quickly. I find that the trick is to never allow yourself to become starving or really hungry because whenever I allow myself to get too hungry I can never control how fast I eat and normally end up being sick. If I am moderately hungry then I eat at a good pace, it just takes a while of getting used to! Youll find your pace! x
Sorry to hear youre having a hard day mindy, but sounds like youre coping well. I have just but a honey chicken teriyaki recipe into the slow cooker so we will see how it turns out! will upload pic of finished meal and recipe later!

I now eat with a teaspoon and a knife .. It gets a little getting used to to , like learning to eat again , but it works for me .. I also bought myself a cat bowl , a plain one , but it's the exact size I need my meals to be once I've got my fills sorted and my restrictions are at a good point ..
I'm not going to lie , today I am having a hard time .. I want to scoff everything and anything , I havnt , and I've shortened my trip to town and come home where I don't have anything to tempt me .. I did have a cooked breakfast in Boswells , but only ate the eggs , beans , bacon and mushrooms , didn't have the chips that go with it , or the sausages .. So I filled up on the proteins first and left the rest ..
I've just made myself a huge smoothie to fill me up like a hot water bottle lol ..
A co op pot of mixed fruit , coconut milk , handful of spinach , vitamins , dessert spoon of peanut butter , and 3 large spoons of SKYR yogurt .. I've got to fill myself up with this liquid so I dint root through and find anything to fill my mouth with !
It's lovely and sweet and tastes naughty even though it's not to bad ..
Roll on Wednesday for my band fill !
