Hope all goes well with the op, I am sure you will be grand. Welcome to the forum!

Sorry for taking so long to get back. I've had my band for two weeks on Wednesday this week. I was advised to have the powder slimfast, but I would honestly go with whatever they advised for you personally. :) Hope you are doing ok!

Good luck with your weigh in, fingers crossed it will be the result you want :)

What a time you have had! I had Mr Li also and my port wound opened with the glue. I have been dressing it as luckily I am a nurse but an ear infection on top of that - the pain of that is so horrendous. I think you are doing fab considering what you have been through. Also that driver...

(googles food which begins with letter U! - thanks for the toughie Danni! ) Ugli Fruit! (ew?)

You have received some great advice and I don't think I can add to any of it! I just want to put out there that when I first spoke to my dieitician, she stated don't expect weightloss till month 6 - which does seem quite a way off, but maybe it's for those of us that it takes a while to get the...

Will keep boiled eggs in mind. I may attempt! Saw Mr Li for um...2 minutes this evening for him to check my wound. No need to pack anymore and he says it will just granulate across. I know from experience that if its left to granulate across I will end up with a pretty wide scar but I...

You are showing her kindness and how much you love her right to the end.

So very sorry about your wee pet. Wish I could say something to make things better. Sometimes in grief no matter how much we want to run and hide, especially when you are dealing with your post op, the best thing is to feel it - for what it is. Maybe easy said (a lot easy said) than done...

Well done on the big loss last week, and the wee one this week, I bet it's quite a total when you put them together. As Danni says, it's all in the right direction. I think weight loss always has ups and downs but at the moment you are still having downs (losses). This week is now over, now...

As far as I know, fizzy anything is to be avoided :sigh:

Bloody hell - excuse the pun! That is horrific. It's great that they are not worried, good for them, but you have to live with it in the meantime! I wish they would be a bit more helpful to you. Should they not be referring to gynae if they can't come to a conclusion or are avoiding coming...

I have to admit, I have seen numerous wound lines and yours are possibly the tidiest I have seen! I have witnessed someone who had quite a lot of 'gathering' under their arms, so the surgeon has done a fab job.

Day 21 today! I think i'm trying to beat the guinness world record or something. I will give it another week and if it doesnt disappear I will go back to my docs as it is starting to really get on my nerves. I am excusing it for the mo as I said before, i've been through quite alot of upset...

Thanks for the advice! I didn't have the issue with eggs getting stuck but I swear they dont taste the same?!? I had two small mouthfuls that I chewed to bits and I had to stop as it was making me feel sick. I find it likely that I will not be attempting them again. The thought of them makes...

Naan Bread

Edamame beans (im hungry!)

I recall looking up information about this myself. The problem is with NICE is that they are guidelines - not policies. I am pretty sure when I read up about it that in my area I would have had to have had a BMI of 50 to be considered for Gastric Banding (which I had but would have then had to...
