    ive lost 28lb since 15th of december ..i think im a little disappointed isnt it nuts how some people have lost 40 pounds and others barely 20...my friends and relatives ask me "how much you lost now " i feel like im letting people down and considering im still making payments on it you would think i would be really motivated but i find i get really pissed off,im sorry i felt like venting ,Am i the only one who feels like this is way more a struggle than i bargained for ?

    hi girls went to visit my nutritionalist again last night and i felt like i was going to weight watchers class when you know youve had a bad week (or in my case a bad couple ):help: . i have really lost track of myself ...I had flu 3 weeks ago and ever since have been feeling really sorry myself ,im so weak,my mouth tastes like a camels behind and ive been eating whatever i fancy really,IVE GAINED 2 POUNDS :faint: (deserved to gain more )of course back in cycle of i feel so bad about going of course that i cant get back on the road but.... last night really good because the nutritionalist was lovely and really supportive and was soooo proud of what id lost so far i was really perked up and when i told her about being sick then kinda using that to slip backwards she just said thats ok your human and breaking habits of a life time its no big deal youve done great so far ,imagine you didnt have op and steadily had gaiined 2 pound a week instead of losing it ,i would have got to 21 stone :paranoid so suddenly instead of being 26 pound down i felt like i was 54 pound down !!! she's good at her job as i came away feeling motivated again. i have a question though ??how much are you eating ???i think i need a fill?? i can have a bowl of pasta ,bowl of stew , poached egg and slice of toast. whole bowl of cereal, actually rice and potatoes i can eat lots of bread really fills me 1 slice and im good ,chicken sticks unless it cut really small (i still eat too fast ) i have been avoided bread alot but i reckon if i had one slice at breakfast and lunch i would be full for longer ,what do you think?? does anybody want to post typical day so i can see what im supposed to be eating . thanks nikki

  8. ouch way to go mom...............not !!!!! well you could always say well you dont have to come and thank god im walking towards someone who loves me and not someone who is thinking about size of my butt. but then again mothers think they can say stuff and it ok because their your mom and and would never hurt you intentionally grrrrrrrrrrrr
  9. bananamom......well you will feel wonderful when you lose all the weight and that girl see you still beautiful. hamuchan...my hubby said that to me once and i cried so much,he also felt like idiot ,he said he thought id be more pissed off than hurt and it would make me get back in control ,but as all women know if someone hurts you .....you comfort eat ..so that last time he said... it bit wasnt last time i felt it.

  11. well ive had alot of cringe moments:embarassed: first one was when i was taking my kids swimming and a little girl asked did i have baby in my tummy and when i said no she said yeah well why are you so fat then :rolleyes there are times when seen but not heard very good idea:p .(i was at least three stone lighterback then) then the one thing that really pissed me off and i even considered complaining was when i was pregnant with third child (i have 4 boys)i was about 40lb over weight and had flabby tummy from previous pregnancies and doctor was trying to feel position of the baby and suspected he was breech and while i was lay on bed he was squishing me and said its hard to tell what way baby lying as you have alot of conditioning there :embarassed: and then when on to say DO YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN AND WAS SNIGGERING i said i knew exactly what he meant and he said laughing YOUR TOO FAT FOR ME TO TELL !!!he sent me to hospital for next check up and funnily enough i wasnt too fat for any one else to tell position of baby:mad:

    bk ...i also feel like i could eat more as after dinner im satisfied for only a short while and i know if left too long like this i would be fighting with myself not to have something else..i find having a small scoop of lemon sorbet(very low fat ) really good as it so bitter it kind of disturbs taste buds and cleans mouth of whatever thing you still craving more off ..also im having fill on 20th so im counting days... hang in there

    I FAILED :cry thankfully not with my band just my driving test :faint: i had test this morning and was a nervous wreck past few days:nervous ,but you know although i was disappointed i realised it not end of the world i will get another go and il be less nervous ,when i came home i weighed myself and discovered scales where moving downwards so i decided that obviously i cant be fabulous at everything so driving is taking back seat as i motor my way to skinnyness... . also this evening im signing up for yoga classes 10 week course 2hour classes ,i cant wait they start next week ,i used to go and i loved it but classes where getting too popular and i felt crowded in the space we where doing it.this time im doing it in my sons secondary school so large PE hall. i also started using my stepper although you would all pee yourselfs if you saw how quick my thighs go dead and i have to stop so im trying 50 steps twice a day and then tomorrow il do 60 each time and so on ....:tired well i have to start somewhere. nikki

    steph hi hun i know what you mean about people asking "well how much you lost now ??it drives me barmy because i think they all thought id have surgery and then ,wham the weight would just melt away and they could watch me dissappear in front of their eyes OH I WISH.....sad thing is i think deep down i hoped i would be dropping about 1lb a day in first month..aww well cant blame a girl for dreaming and when i read post now and others seem to have lost so much i think oh no im not doing so good ,but i didnt have pre~op diet so my weight loss has been since band and then i realise im doing ok. i have decided i want to lose 7lb a month anything else a bonus and if i keep on target of that il be slim this xmas !!
  17. All of those things are normal DONT GIVE UP JUST YET !!!im banded 24 days now (18LB LOST)and feel completely back to normal ,maybe a little tired still but you know i was permenantly tired before i had band so i think my weight tires me :phanvan ,it takes a week at least to feel any real signs of improvement and another one to notice you will be fine i swear,just think that you have carried this weight around a long long time one month to get yourself to a stage where life is back to normal should be allowed,the toilet thing happened to me in one massive go ,i swear i was terrified to look in loo in case my insides where there:eek: . this too shall pass,drink plenty of protien shakes as this seems to be helping others get through their hunger and gives more energy . Any time im feeling blue i go through the b4 and after pictures on here and that puts a smile back ...check out last five or six pages rather than the start there great!!!!! ALSO POSTING ON HERE REALLY GETS YOU THROUGH ON GOOD OR BAD DAYS. GOOD LUCK NIKKI
