Hi. My names Ashlie. I'm new to the site and have been reading all your stories. I'm getting my band at the end of this month at Dolan park and I'm so excited. was told to try n lose 10lbs. Just nervous that something will go wrong and i won't get it done. Over thinking a bit I think. X

Hey welcome to the site, I call it my new Facebook as its more interesting lol! I had my band at Dolan park on Wednesday, I did the milkshake diet I struggled the first week and had some really bad days . the second week I stuck to it. I lost 12 lb so don't panic at all. Xx

Thanx everyone. Everybody seems so nice on here. I'm going to start slim fast 2moro so hopefully it goes well n wont b to difficult. Tried it before n found it hard. But I've got more to focus on this time. If I dnt do it there's a chance I won't get my band and I dnt want that to happen. Xx

As the days go on I'm feeling better about it- as I'm not in too much pain anymore I can feel when it's working. I'm rarely hungry and I had soup for tea last night which made me really tired when I got full which is what usually happens when I'm full lol. But yeh it's not the same feeling as when I was full from a plate of food before its strange because I feel full but don't have the jelly belly ate to much food feeling.(hope this makes sense) and also keeping upto the required intake is difficult ATM which is hard to get used to as pre-op I've always drank squash by the pint and within seconds ! It's a huge learning curve but hopefully it will have been for the best! I may weigh myself later xxx
