Hi Ginzeh

I havent exercised much at all yet... I was gonna start swimming as i am now at a weight wher ei last went and i know swimming costume fits me.
But.... as of yet i havent signed up ( i keep making excuses :rolleyes:)

I have had a couple of weeks where i didnt lose weight, but at the moment am struggling with bingeing, have an overwhelming urge to binge eat and i know it will only make me sick.

It has been 2 weeks (tomorrow) since my balloon. I am still feeling sicky.... It get's worse as the day goes on. I am trying to eat and drink as much as I am supposed to. But struggle some days, as I start to get indigestion and then do nothing but burp and even have hiccups at times! Lol.

I have lost 19lbs in the 2 weeks though, which I am over the moon with. Just wish I felt a bit better with it.

Did anyone else find it difficult driving? I start to feel quite queazy while driving. I have a 180 mile journey to do next week and not looking forward to it at all. xx
 
I hijacking this thread and wondered if anyone can help.

Had diarrhoea for 4 days and have now started being sick and am bringing up stuff I had 4 days since!! Not good got cramping on my left side and my gallstones have started playing up! Don't know whether this is the balloon or I'm just ill.

Anyone recommend what to do next.

Hi I have found that the more water you drink the less bad breath you get.

The food is staying in your stomach too long and causes the bad breath I have been advised to drink before and After eating and at least 3 litres per day! When I do this I don't get the bad breath.

Hope this helps (dietician recommendation)
 
great tip regarding water. I think I am up next week, just waiting for my date as the balloon hasn't arrived in Australia yet!
 
oh no, hope the drive was ok?! I reckon I will be sick like you are I already get heartburn and nausea a lot! I am wating for my date, as spatz balloon not arrived in Australia yet!
 
sure the scales arewrong, you sound like you are going really well! Keep it up. Bit worried you only had 300ml tho, I am having 450 and am sick alot and have heart burn normally so hope my symptons aren'ttoo bad! just waiting for the date as spatz balloons not arrived yet. Sorry can't view your earlier reply, I am new to website and can't seem to access them! any tips?
 
can anyone tell me how to read my replies? whenever I try and access them I get an error message! maybe its because I am new and haven't posted 50 messages yet? I am new to this so advice be great...
 
Hey Suzy, strictly no fizzy drinks allowed im afraid! I miss coke already especially with vodka =(
Yeah I'm going to ask for a fill asap, I've not had any bad experiences since! Well smelly burps but like goofy said drink water I don't get heartburn or indigestion and don't take the tablet I'm meant. To either! Where are you having it done?

I've lost 5lbs..I've given up smoking too.


I went to my doctors and I said why aren't I loosing loads like other women who've had it and she explained cos I'm 14st it takes longer to lose, if you're bigger you lose weight faster but can put. It back on quick, loosing 1/2lb a week is healthiest way which I am =) x

Hi all you ballooners , hope everything going ok..

I am still not drinking enough water, hence why weight loss slow.
