Ladies, thanks so very much. Will def have to put the scales away again, my other half seems to think i look slimmer so maybe its working in some way. I have a call scheduled with my provider tomorrow night its just the protein thing is a bugbear as I am really very fussy. I think carbs are def...

I dont eat cheese (hate the stuff and all dairy, yoghurt is only because I was told I should have some dairy stuff) :( also hate tuna and kippers and all that kind of thing they give me the boak. I love "real" meat and prawns but cant do them (too soon I think) which is why I have had ended up...

I was banded on 7th June so nearly three weeks in. I lost 8lbs in the first 8 days but have lost nothing else now for nearly two weeks. I am doing pretty much as I am told though, mushies I am eating are scrambled egg with skimmed milk, soups (ww tomato or normal lentil soup), very small...

For shame! You need new friends babe. x

I constantly chewed on those deflatine tablets and walking up and down helps disperse it too. When you are drinking drink very very slowly. Remember too that the air is still trapped from the op and on top of that, your stomach inside is swollen so it may not all be bloating as such. It will...

Like you all I am suffering huge guilt about my spend. My band and the aftercare cost me 6950 - all of my savings and a few thou borrowed too. In my head I am offsetting it against my happiness, the amount i spend on clothes to try and disguise my shape, the shopping I do when down about my...

Sarah we do everything for our kids, sometime you need to do something for yourself. I emptied the savings account and borrowed some to be banded earlier this month but after decades of putting everyone else first, its my turn. and yours x x x
