  5. Hi Tracy

    Miss my babes already! Had lots of special hugs and kisses now back on the farm and needing to mow and slash after all the rain we have had,sounds as though the fill went ok? I love lots of things with sauces eg pasta they seem to go down beter, the only advise I could give you is eat slowly and chew chew chew!!!!! Have a good time

    Cheers Ronni

  6. Hi Ronni,

     

    sorry I haven't gotten back to you sooner. I typed up this big message the other day and computer crashed and not only lost all the message but lost my temper as well! Didn't feel like doing it over again.

    How did your babysitting go? I had my first fill today. Went into Port with my mum about an hour and a half later and had pasta for lunch. Had no problems getting it down but I filled up very quickly. Busy morning at the clinic with all the fills coming and going and ran into another girl that I was in hospital with so it was good to compare notes a bit.

    Going to Newcastle for the weekend so I will have to test the waters a bit with what to eat whilst I am away. It will be trial and error I guess but so far today have had no problems.

     

    Take care......talk to u soon.......Tracy

    Hi Tracey Have been flooded in for the last week,we also have property. Have to get out today to go and babysit on the central coast! Had my first fill 7 weeks after op, Cant eat white bread but you get over that! have had 3 fills in the last 9 months I dont go every month for clinic visits I can usually tell if I have no restriction.The longer you have the band the better you become at knowing what you need eg:fills I try most foods in small amounts some times they go down ok sometimes they get stuck just remember to chew I can usually tell in the first swallow if the food I am eating is going to be a problem, My favorite at the moment is Vita weet biscuits with cheese and tomato home grown of course!!!!!!! and any thing with a sauce I can eat noodles but another bandster I talk with cant eat them .Weare all different. May be we can catch up when I return from Grandma duties Am down to 75kg (goal set by Dr Peck 70kg ) started at 96kg Going slow and steady dont weigh my self only when at clinic its only a number on a machine, I prefer to take notice of how I feel more than worry about scales Well that was a speech and a half Cheers Ronni

    Hi Liond Have been banded for just over 3 weeks and only started to feel good a week ago. Most people dont realise that this op takes a lot out of you and you need to look after yourself,dont rush give your body time to recover ,you are the only one who will know when the time is right. Good luck hope allgoes well for you Ronni:rolleyes2:

Does anyone have the same problem? And the positive spin is that so far have lost 10kg's so far am already feeling different in my self.
