I have had the band for all of eight days now! I am eating mushies, never have I had such pleasure from mashed potato!

This cold is driving me gaga and I did a horribly bad thing, I ate another milky way! I have to get these milky bars out of my house. I think I shall hand them out to the kids tomorrow morning. It would be fine if it was summer, I can deal with being warm, but this winter front and food that doesn't really give me any heating is hard work. I wish I could just curl up in bed for a few days.

Ah the stuff dreams are made of, if I could I would go and exercise, not allowed for another 3 weeks.

Can you believe it!?! I actually want to exercise, infact I am itching to do it....or is that my wounds healing?

This initial weight loss has been a blessing to my poor old joints, 16lbs gone and I have to be honest I have cut down my pain killers. I wonder if once I lose all my weight I want to, will I stop taking pain killers altogether??

I have to gather myself, recall my will power and kick it into gear. I hate being so weak, it doesn't matter that they are just fun size, if I want a snack I should eat something helathy mush or liquid. I shall not forget to drink water to prevent temptation!
