  1. Happy 42nd Birthday Annie71!

  2. Happy 41st Birthday Annie71!

  3. Hi Teagan, I'm good Thanks. I'm having the same issue at the moment with food-chocolate has become a big problem lol...Not good tho. I still exercise regularly and I have good restriction. I only eat twice a day except when there is chocolate. and I've lost nearly 26kg. So I am definitely happy with that. I have 5.75ml in my band. I do have problems when I get my fill, apparently I'm in the top 1% of problems with finding the port. Which is painful but my doctor is gr8. How's your weightloss going?I hope you are well take care...

  4. Hi Annie, just touching base - it's been a while :) How are you doing? How is the weight loss? I have just been filled to 5mls so I'm feeling some restriction now! YAY! Struggling with decision making re: foods I should be eating versa foods I want to be eating LOL...but I'm getting there. Hoping to see some results soon! :) Is that a new avatar photo? You look fantastic!!! Hope your well :)

    Really Great Day

    Congratulations... It is such a great feeling isn't it. Keep up the gr8 work...:biggrin:
  6. Hi William, just thought I'd pop in to see how you are travelling along...All is great here I'm still on the loosing side of things and life is great. Hope you are well and that you too are doing great.

    Take care Annie

  7. Hi, I had something similar happen. My doctor told me that when it is that time of the month it does get tighter, and for me, that is when it seemed to happen just a couple of days prior to them arriving and I had been fine for weeks before that. I was unable to take my tablets and was not able to eat in the mornings. So I basically would have a cuppa in the morning and because it was warm it helped relax the oesophagus, and when it was lunch I was able to eat and keep my food down and then I just would take my tablets later in the evening instead of the morning. I don't know of course if that is where you are at, but that is what happened to me so I hope that helps a little. Otherwise if it doesn't seem to ease as the morning goes and you are unable to get anything down of course see your doctor as soon as possible...
  8. Hi Teagan, Hope everything goes well on the 13th for your next fill. I had mine on Friday the 7th last wk...3rd one and wow yep there is a big restriction. It's great tho just have to take it even slower when eating, well that's what I have found anyway. I've got a total of 5.75cc in my 10cc band, what is your fill quantity? anyway thinking of you good luck and take care Annie

  9. oops bottom message first lol... Take care keep your chin up your doing great...Annie

  10. I can understand your frustration I'm going through this with my Husband and we are quietly competitive lol...An as we know men loose faster but I'm giving him a run for his money lol and we r at this point very similar in weight loss.( but i reckon its cos Im stricter on myself then he is) He admittedly has more probs he seems to think he can still eat everything an tries, and of course has his stuck episodes but doesnt like to admit it. I can say I have only had a few of these compared to his many.He said since his 2nd fill he feels to tight but i think its his eating habits not chewing and scoffing food when he is hungry. But everyone is diff,an he could b to tight Im not the doctor lol. But he hasnt lost that much this fill which leaves the ? as to y ....There is much to learn and with everyday comes more trials...But dont 4get we all loose it differently. As I keep saying to my son perserverance lol...What are you eating through the day?

  11. Hi Teagan, I'm quite tight in the morn.so I only have a cup of coffee with slim milk an equal that lasts me till bout 11am then I have my protein and that may be eggs as an omlete with mushies or even with bacon but no bread/toast. I'l have sauce or hollandaise with it so that its not to dry.Dinner is veg with fish or chicken or I do a lot of casseroles so the meat is real tender. I have potato sometimes or rice but not much of that at all.protein an veg being the biggest portions. I really find the protein keeps me full. Dont get me wrong tho i still eat chocolate and have ice cream after dinner a few nights a wk.But I try to exercise for atleast 45mins 5 days a wk.but that doesnt always happen. to be cont...lol

  12. Hey Annie, I'm good....still haven't lost any more weight, I've been on a plateau for a good month now...not very encouraging...can't wait for my next fill (13 August)!!! I have realised though that I still have a lot of work that I need to do re: eating the right foods and of course more exercise...but I am getting there. How are you doing with your eating? WHat types of food do you have for morning, lunch, dinner etc..do you still find yourself snacking throughout the day (I DO)...are you doing any exercise?? I'm so jealous that you've lost so much weight! lol

  13. Hi Tegan how are you this week? All good here just sitting about the same not up or down but just plodding along...How's things for you ?

  14. Thanks for all of your replies.. I'm starting to understand how confused the body must be after having such big changes...and go figure I wake this morning with them....:thumbup:
  15. Thanks Luv I feel gr8about the loss so far,it's so nice to go down in clothes size and feel your clothes getting bigger.Uno I didn't feel much diff.the1st couple of days after my2nd fill and then it just seemed to kick in an I wasn't feeling as hungry thank goodness.I hated that feeling of hunger again.I'm on 5.25cc and my next date is the10th of August.But like I said in my thread I have no period and the weird thing is I feel even tighter.But the doctor did say that with menstruation it would get tighter,but I don't get it when I haven't got my bloody period.Oh my,talk about baffled lol.Anyways I'm only having2sm meals a day lunch an dinner mainly protein and a cuppa coffee4bfast.What is your meal plan like?
