    I'm sorry to hear that luv it's a sad sign of the times I think. Yes much better than 4 months ago though still not ready for work. Apparently work won't let me phase return so I'll happily take more time off until I can cope with full time again as nothing has changed in my workplace. Finham...

    Well I've been to see the food psychologist and he agrees I need help!!! He's setting me up with the Cov dietician, who ironically used to work at Heartlands when I had my band two years ago. He's also getting me in to see the consultant here just to make sure I'm definately all ok, on the right...

    Corrigan’s secret door describes a metaphorical escape route for busy physicians. The term was derived from the successful and exceptionally busy professional life of Irish physician Dominic John Corrigan (1802–80). It is claimed that Corrigan’s outpatient clinic was so busy that he required a...

    Well I am discharged!!! I actually feel ok about it too.... I don't need the crutch of needing another appointment with the dietician anymore, I'm glad however that the psychological appointment coincides with the discharge. She said today that they are still there for me if I ever need to call...

    lurve veg.... all kinds. Now I was advised in my post op booklet to eat veg first then protein then if enough room carb. I've heard a few people lately say they have their protein first then veg. What's the band law on that one? Walked back from work and am soooooo shattered. 7 miles walking...

    It affects my hips cycling must admit, so figured I'd alternate cycling and walking, it's either that or live on painkillers. From the meal you had it looks like Ieat way too much still. I had 3 small pieces brocolli 1 golf ball size cauli, 2 inch thick chunks carrot and a baby sweetcorn with...

    I had 13ml in a 14 last December and they took 1ml out due to me being so stressed I couldn't keep anything down. It's such a shame as I was never hungry, couldn't eat between meals and was losing regularly, even if smaller amounts. Got an appt this week with dietician so will see what they say...

    Fingers crossed Jo, though I've heard mine won't do any more than 5 fills unless exceptional circumstances. Hope you're all having a lovely bank holiday, it's a much needed day off for me so enjoying doing things in my own time. Have made a huge lasagne for tea which I will portion and put...

    Hello everyone, nice to see some new faces. I've not been around for a while now and am ashamed to say I have put on a stone since xmas :( not following the rules, not exercising and eating what I can when I can due to another horrendous house move. Long story.... needless to say I'm quite glad...

    Has anyone had a band op without a partner/friend to help out?

    Hello Im a single mum with no OH and was dropped the morning of op and collected the next day like some of the others on here. I think even if there had been an OH I'd have preffered to go it alone as the waiting room for ops was packed and most partners were asked to move into the corridor to...
