Hi Garry, I have had the same with nam and bread. I still have no restiction, but saying that I am only on day 1 of 1st fill, So hope after a few fills i will get the restriction. When I had nan bread about 2 weeks ago, I was sick, the pain was unreal, my hubby had to rub my back, tummy ect for ages then ended up in bed feeling ill. I hope you are feeling a little better soon. Just keep drinking etc. Pls could you work out my bmi for me and also how much I should be eating, I hear your our local dietriction, soz about the spelling x By the way your weight is going the rite way xx

To everyone on this site, everyone is doing so well, the weight loss is so good, I am so glad that I found this site, without our advise and help, I dont think that would have lost 2 the weight that I have without your advise. I have no restriction, but have still lost weight, b4 now I would have lost a couple of lds and then gone 4 a curry because I had been good, but because you are so encourageing and because I read all your great messages, this is what keeps me going. Thanks peeps xx soz if I go on, thats just me. xx:rolleyes2:

Just a little enquiry, Tonight when I got home I took the plaster off, were the injection went in to have my fill 2day and it was no were near the port?? was not sure if because I was lay down that the port and the injection were nearer, but when I stand up they look about 3 mile apart, I am now a little worried that he has not put any restriction in the band. soz for the spelling, thanks in advance for the help and advise Mandy xxxxxxxx

Hi, feeling nice and dandy, some times I get realy tired, but it dosent help with me being overweight, But that will soon be sorted:thumbup:. The drinking of water is hard, but t is ok. you sound that you have got it sorted now, I just try and drink loads of water all day. I have found that I am getting very bloated as the day gose on. My stomack dose hurt, I am not sure if it is because I am taking so much liquid in and no food ( you know wat I mean by food), I am hoping this inproves when I start the mushy stage. Has any1 had this problem.? Glad your feeling a bit better today. Mandyx

hi everybody, the posts are great, your all doing so well, brill news for the banded peeps, you had done the rite thing. I am going to be boring now peeps, prob just going over wat every one els has been chatting about, foods that you can eat after the liquids. Today is the 1st day that I have eaten, I had scrambled egg, and I ate it all, :mad: I was hungrey, but I have just read that some peeps can only eat a few mouthfulls. Any more information on what you peeps eat, would be great. I am interested in having a tummy tuck, when I have lost weight. I thought that I would have to wait untill I had lost my weight b4 going to the docs. Saying that I may change docs, because when I went re having the gastric band on the NHS, I did'nt get anywere. :thumbup: Any advice would be good. Hope your all well and happy. Thanks in advance Mandy xx P.s How do you look at peoples pics on here. x

Wishfull, lovely news, a grandma, congratulation to all, xx

odgemodge, we sound desperate, :rolleyes2: re the wine, I am going to a bit of a party next week, plus it is bank Holiday weekend and was woundering if it would be ok to drink, How much can we drink, not as though I am desperate:rolleyes2:, any advice would be good, thanks Mandy xx

Hi Everyone, Not been on for a few days. It has taken ages to read all the messages, some funny mess, which gave me a smile. Welcome to all the newcomers, congrats to all the peeps who have taken the big step of booking their op, brill news. Well done to everyone who has losed. I am 9 days post op, all is well, the wind has gone, my stiches have been cut to the skin, and only a slight pain near the bigger scare, but nothing that I cant cope with. lol. Tomoz I can start on the puree/mushy part of the diet. I may stop on the liquids part of the diet till the end of the week. Please can any1 advice, how long do you have to wait b4 you can have a drink, meaning wine etc. lol Thanks for all your adivce. Mandy x

Hi everyone, it is good to see everyone is doing well. Welcome to the newcomers, brilliant news to the losers who are happly loseing. I am so glad that I found this site. Pixie, When I told my family, they were concerned about me having the op, they all wished me well, some did say, I should try dieting harder, even get a fittness coach a couple of times a week, ha, ha. I explained that I need something that would help me for the rest of my life, hopefully and that is why I chose the band. It is not a short term fix, a faddy diet, were I lose a couple of stone, then put 4 back on, my band will help me lose the weight and keep it off. Which has never happened be4. If peeps dont have problems with their weight, they truely do not understand. If this is wat you realy want, go for it with both hands. Good luck. Mandy:thumbup:

Hi Peeps, Congratulations to all of you who have now got your op date, your dates will come round sooner than you think.

Never mind, I will keep trying Ha, Ha, xx
