Hi Jen, Yes I weighed but I am trying not to from now on, at least until my appointment next Thursday. Lost around 4 kilos though so you have got to be happy about any losses instead of gains. Saleel22

Thanks Chuckles. Are you still trying to decide about getting banded? Saleel22

Hi Nikki, Sorry that you have been having port pain. I was dreading that but thank goodness it hasn't happened. I'm just getting a little wind pain in the chest area but it doesn't last too long. I get a bit lazy now and then sitting in front of TV and using the laptop so I then make myself get up and do laps around the house.Very Boring though. I went for a walk around the park yesterday and today which was good. Saleel22

Good luck every one being banded tomorrow. Saleel22

Hi Redtulips3, Ditzy means scatterbrained, not thinking clearly, a bit dotty. This is what I am still. I just accidently erased my reply to you and had to start again. I keep writing the letters the wrong way around. Saleel22

Hi Iwood, If you have something like Optifast you will find it has a lot of vitamins in it and is filling when sipped slowly. This is what my dietician recommended also V8 vegetable juice with no pulp. I find it awful but if you heat it slowly it is like a tomato soup (almost).Don't forget a liquid vitamin as well. If you sip these things every half hour it will stop you being hungry and getting dehydrated. Hope this helps. Saleel22

Thanks every one for the good wishes. Hi Tweenwaters congrats. I haven't had any pain (yet) My biggest thing was the migraine that I had for a couple of days. It was really hard making myself sip liquids and walk around the house when my head felt like it was going to explode. Maybe that's where all my gas went-straight to my head.lol I feel better today. No pain just a slight uncomfortable feeling sometimes in my chest. I then walk around the house again counting the tiles and it seems to go. Good luck every one. Hope all your pain is gone soon. Saleel22

Hi dlollie, I can't imagine going to work or to the Mall. Just want to hide away in the house at the moment. Hope every thing goes well for you. Saleel22

Thanks Chuckles. Am home and sipping and walking. Every thing seems ok except for a headache. Saleel22

Hi Anng, I was done on Wednesday and came home yesterday Thursday. I was done in Qld Australia. Have a little pain now and then from the gas but mainly have a headache. Saleel22

Hi Phyl, I wish I could come. I was in Seattle in July last year and absolutely loved it. We went to the Bite of Seattle which was great. Just loved the place. I was banded on the 16th January so don't think I will be taking any big trips soon. Maybe next year. My husband is always looking for an excuse to go back to the US. We have been 4 times now.Good luck with the planning. Saleel22 on the Gold Coast Qld Australia

Hi Guys ,Just checking in. I was banded on Wednesday and came home yesterday. Every thing seems to be going ok. I'm sip,sip,sipping and walking round and round my house. I'm sick of looking at my tiles though.lol Thanks to all of you who sent good wishes. I will post more in a day or so. Saleel22

Good luck Gillibean, Keep moving and the gas will move. Rest up when you need to though. Saleel22

Thanks for all the good wishes guys. Talk to you in a couple of days. Saleel22

Thank you, saleel22

Hi Anng, You will find lots of helpful people on here. I am in Australia but have been to your neck of the woods on 4 occasions. I love Canada. I'm being banded tomorrow so I will be able to tell you all about it when I am back on here in a couple of days. Good luck with what ever decision you make. Read all the good and bad on here before you make up your mind. Saleel22

Glad you are home and well even though you are a little sore. 10kls in that short of time wow I can only hope. My turn tomorrow morning. Will keep in touch in a couple of days. Morphine usually bombs me out when I have had surgery before so if they give me that I won't be on here for a few days. Hope you keep feeling ok. Keep on farting. Saleel22

Hi Guys, Glad every one is doing so well. tomorrow is my big day. I don't feel as nervous today but that will probably change as the day goes on. I know I won't be on here for a couple of days so just wanted to wish every one else being banded this week all the best. Saleel22

Good luck, Travelology, Dianegoe, poodlecamper, LKM, greeneyez. Hope every thing goes well for all of you. saleel22
