Hi well had a good bandiversary yesterday, decided to take a new photo to let everyone see the difference, I was at the support group I ran last nite and one of the girls brought in 2 bottles of shoer which was lovely of her not only that I was another 5kg down so my weight continues to go down.

Well here I am one year tomorrow since I had my gastic band operation, I should be feeling on top of the world with the amount of weight that I have lost, but there is just one wee thing bothering me and it,s my self image. I still see myself as grossly overweight, I have lost 140lb roughly with another say 56lb to go I know that I will do it evenually. I am glad that I had the band operation because I am the total opposite of how I was before getting the band I sat on the couch and stuffed my face nite after nite now I hate sitting in. Tomorrow I am running the Murrayfield support group this is now our 3 or 4 monthly meeting not only is it my 1st bandiversary but Chris Oilver is coming to be a guest speaker. We are all going out for a christmas nite out so I am looking forward to that.:confused:

On Sunday cause I was off Michael, myself and the girls headed of to Arthur Seat for a walk, we parked the car at the foot of the radicial road and started walking, walking and more walking, we took in beautiful views across Edinburgh, we went past 3 lochs, Salisbury craggs, Scottish Parliament, a fresh water spring and we went past Holyrood Palace where queen lizzy stays whilist she in town. Not only did we get to the top of this extinct volcano we walked right round before we knew it we had done a full circle. When we got back to the car we decided to do the same route by car so up the radical road once more setting the milage 1st we continued right round to discover that we had all walked 4 miles up and down hill. I was so delighted that I had done it just thought I would share it with you all.:cry_smile:
