I've been banded! Not the greatest experience as had some post op complications and ended up staying in for 4 days. Staff were fab though, well looked after. Very very bruised but surprised how well I feel. Fluids only at the mo but not a struggle. Yay!

Hi all
Nearly half way through LSD lost 10lb. Finding it ok but very boring and bland, doesn't help when family are eating normal meals and choccy but I have told them just to carry on as normal so I get used to seeing them eat and don't get fustrated.
6 days to go until admision to hospital, only 3 more days to work.
I hope next week flys by and not drags.
Anybody else having surgery at Sunderland on the 27th.
Cheers
Steve

Hey Gippa/steve.... Great going. It's all worth it. Just hang on and steer clear of temptation. All the best for the op.

 

[Gippa]

Hi Kaps
Thank you. How are you doing after your op, seemed like you had a lot of traveling to do.

 

[Leda]

Hey all... Complete 2 weeks tomorrow. Doing great. The external clips (staples) come out tomorrow. Able to manage 5km walk in the morning as well as in the evening. Each 5km takes anything between 54 minutes (at best) and 60 minutes (at worst)

Pain is... Weakness leaving the body... Cheers and Regards... Kaps

Kaps you are shrinking fast x

 

[kaps]

Hey westiedog... Not shrinking at all... This week no weight loss... Just find my tummy flatter and trousers not as tight as they used to be..
Weight wise didn't lose anything this week. Just the 6 kgs that I had lost in the first week...

Pain is... Weakness leaving the body... Cheers and Regards... Kaps

Kaps this is the magic of this surgery pound stay but the body does a disappearing act then the pounds start to move as if my magic lol so don't worry this is normal

Back to work Monday so will see how I go with all this fluid intake and having to remind myself to get up from desk and walk round!!!!! Suffering a bit with wind in shoulder! Terrible pain worse that the op was! Already got my follow up appointment for 26th March!
