Some days i have a large TIN of sweet corn for lunch no problems, havent tried fresh corn on cob, but frozen ok,much sweeter from tin though.
-
Yep small tablets, my doctor just said think they are okay.
-
It is that time of the month and crave sweet, okay can have fruit, but want something else, found that a lite mars bar is low calorie and does the trick, unlike a jube, jelly beans one or two, any one else got any other ideas??

I find that with boiled or baked potatoes i cannot eat the skin. also i find have terrible pains with spicy or rich rich gravies, normal gravies okay, besides that Pasta, rice etc. okay, and if the sushi - the green outside bit not fresh gets stuck, but if fresh okay, so if not dark green dry lookin go for it. keep use informed, good luck. i have been filled 4 times, the last about 7 or 8 weeks ago, next fill late late may, but 4 fills all up between sep 18 and now, the longest i have been booked to go back is this time which is 3 mnths, last time dr asked me if i wanted a fill and stupid stupid me said just a little, should not have mentioned the little bit to him, because ahh he listened and that is what he did. keep up the weight loss, i used the name slimmy because decided i dont want to be a fatty no more, am in my early 40s and not going to be a fatty, or the biggest in my workplace, like i was the biggest at school, the one when went clubbin noone wanted to dance with, all that has to change. all the very best to you in your journey too. -

I have had 4 fills, but now concerned band may have flipped, back to doctors end may, 28 kilos so far since 18 sep 2008. Once you start getting fills makes the difference i think, but gosh have to really motivate self to eat healthy as stop eating so much now. -
I went to my gp in may 2007, then that when she told me medicare wouldnt cover me, and gave me list of doctors she recommended, The first doctor i could into was in sept, had it done 2 weeks later.So maybe the criteria may have changed would be interested in this as mum wants done.

Yep happens when on machine, will discuss with doctor then, thanx
