I'M SOOO GLAD IT'S OVER!!!!!

Had a catheter fitted whilst in surgery - doesnt hurt at all and you are not aware of it - removing it is a bit like taking out a tampax - no pain promise!

Thanks for your replies, am doing ok on liquids have to do them for 4 wks so at least only 2 wks to go, i am having low fat yogurts and weight watchers soups at the moment and the odd banana smoothie thinned with skimmed milk, are we allowed highlights hot chocolate? finding the headhunger really hard especially when you have to serve the family their dinners! oh for some solid food!

terri, i noticed your thread and our weight loss is really similar as well, it has been 4 wks now for me including the pre-op diet and i am 1lb short of losing 2 stone! what a great feeling that was and makes it all soooooo worth while!

Lisa it does feel great the weight loss, I find that my head hunger is managable most of the time but its silly things that I used to do out of habit that nearly catch me out like when I've cooked for the family and I have a taste to see what needs to be added or if its hot enough. But I start week 3 of fluids tomorrow so it will soon be time for puree stuff how exciting lol.

Bex I too was worried about the cathetar as I have never had to have one before but my cathetar was fitted whilst I was out for the count in theatre so I didnt feel a thing and it didn't hurt coming out.
