Hi Jessica.... I'm using the daily plate...great isn't it!! Can you add friends on there then?? I only have the basic membership Amanda

Trish I'm exactly the same!! Lost 19lb easily but for the last week nothing. I'm on between 1100 and 1200 calories a day. I know I'm being very good by not overdoing it but thinking about food constantly. Luckily I've got my fist fill next friday.....then at least I won't be able to overeat. I feel the old food ways calling me and it's hard to resist

Hiya! I've not even lost 1lb in nearly the last week. I was on 700-800 calories a day ....is that enough to lose weigh?? I tried for a few more yesterday....maybe 900 Confused as to whether to have more cals or less to get the weigh moving again!! Amanda x

Booked my first fill this morning!! July 11th

got an appointment with the nurse tomorrow morning!! Should be a huge relief!!

I was told my stitches would dissolve after 10 days It's day 14 tomorrow and nothing dissolved so far. They're beginning to hurt...and get red and sore around the knots. When did you all have stitches out or did they dissolve Amanda

Thanks Cathy...think I may have to see the doc tomorrow After sitting in the car for 2 hours with my learner driver son I'm even more sore now!!!

Good Morning! another 7lb gone this week (loving it!!) Total of 19lb gone since june 16th Amanda

Hi Dina, Thinking about fills in the future ( I know its a good long way off yet ) Great that we get free fills back at bbc but how much are you ending up paying for flights, taxis and parking at the airport.....would this work out as much as we could get a fill over here?? Amanda

Hiya!! I'm Amanda and live in Haverhill Suffolk I was Banded in Prague on 16th June All good so far..... Had scrambled egg for Breakfast...what a treat! Hoping to lose at leat another stone before I go on holiday to Turkey at the end of july!! Amanda xx

Good Luck tomorrow :sad_smile:

Going to go back to the safe chicken soup tomorrow!!

Steer clear of Heinz Cream of Tomato!!! I had some at lunchtime today and my god I've suffered!! Had the runs ever since....not nice!! lol

oooh is that all??? I seem to have been here forever!! Achey pain in my shoulders so I'm not sleeping more than an hour at a time. The worst bit........I haven't had a cigarette since monday morning 8am...and they won't let me out to have one!! Argh! All I've had so far is Water and fruit tea.... Home tomorrow ...it'll be good to be back in my own bed! Amanda xx

It's day 7 for me and only been on liquids so far. Really struggling to even get 500 calories in me. I'm meant to be on a full tin of soup by now but half is more than enough for me. I literally can't fit any more in me. I feel full ALL of the time. I had a milky decaf coffee yesterday to up the calories so 500 yesterday and 400 previous days. I even wake up full!! Amanda xx

I've lost 12lb.....and I'm very happy!!!

Morning all! Well this time last week I'd just got weighed for the last time on my home scales before setting to be banded and one week later I'm happy to report 12lb gone! The pain has almost gone, just a twinge if I get up too quick. Having trouble getting enough calories in cos I feel constantly full Yesterday I had About 250 ml yogurt 300ml Soup 150 ml yogurt 200ml apple juice 1 litre Water 2 cups of tea every time I eat is an effort. I eat cos I have to not cos I want to. I know I've now got to get more calories in or I'll be poorly Was thinking maybe a milky decaf coffee or 2 a day Work tomorrow :ohmy: Amanda xx

Hi Cathy, Great that you've now got 2 weeks off...make the most of it! I've got about 5 weeks at work then 2 weeks holiday in Turkey....can't wait!! Amanda xx

Hiya Jenni! Hope you don't feel rotten for too long!....I'm still feeling windy and VV full after half a tin of chicken soup!! Love what your mum said....and sooo true! Amanda

Just sent you mine Snuffy...thanks Amanda

Oooh where's the spreadsheet Cathy??

Hiya! I was banded on the 16th too....and lost 9lb so far. (only going to change ticker once a week) But I didn't have to do the pre op liquid diet like you may have done.... I ate everything I wanted the 2 weeks before...and more! The worst pain area is where the port is....tender and a bit itchy! Grumbling wind ....I'm making the most horrendous noises..(inside...not when getting out lol) Tickly cough....and that hurts my poor old tum! Really looking forward to 2 weeks being over...hopefully be pain free by then Amanda

Morning Grey (have you got a name lol) I bet your shoulder pain is from driving. We have to remember we've had surgury and should be taking it easy! Got a friend coming round in an hour....I've text her my chemist list! Deflatine for wind and tickly cough medicine....looking forward to getting that the most! I'm back at work on monday too...not looking forward to that one! And no one there knows what I've been up to either...just told them I was going to my mums for a few days. I'll have to concentrate sadly...no one will have done my work while I've been away....normally when I have time off it take me a month for a week off and a couple of months when I've had a fortnight off! oooh can't wait lol Just had my 'breakfast' 150 mls natural yogurt....not eaten so much for a week and I feel soooo full (maybe this alien I have in my stomach is working lol) Amanda xx

Morning!! The gas has gone thank goodness...but I had a tickly cough over night...hardly got any sleep at all....knackered now!

hiya....I'm home!! :biggrin: and hurting Sitting still on the plane and in car too long.....huge wind build up....my guts are gurgling lol:cursing: More tomorrow Nite nite xx
