shortstuff 0 Posted February 6, 2010 Hey Lou Lou, Am so please for you - I read your posts with interest and am so glad that you are mostly happy and upbeat about the whole thing.. So many of these forums you go on and everyone is so negative! Start my pre-op diet on Thurs and op on the 25th this month. I am of the firm belief that if i go into this with a positive attitude and don't try and cheat - that I'm going to better off (& lighter)!!! Any tips or pointers that you have - especially for the pre-op diet to start with would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Thing Thin Thoughts!

Majj 0 Posted February 6, 2010 Yes Lou ...you are always so possitive , its something I need to learn ..I have been a glass half empty kind of person all my life , always expecting the worst I HAVE to CHANGE...Hubby is a very Optomistic /possitive person ...Lucky for me couldn`t imagine having two sad sacks around , I hope when the banding is done and I can see the weigh coming off my spirits will lift..... Looking forward to more of your happy possitive posts.... M.xx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LouLouBell 0 Posted October 5, 2010 I just had my 1st bandiversary and I am close to 30 kilos down. Since my last fill I am greatly restricted in what I can eat but I am still enjoying my new body and I am willing to accept the restrictions of my band. I still feel very positive and would recommend a band to anyone who is commited to a life change. I do have my down days but all I have to do is look in the mirror and I feel a whole lot better! My tip is to have fills and don't be discouraged if you can't eat some foods, - that is the whole point! I figure that I have eaten enough in my lifetime and now I have to accept that there are some foods that I will never eat again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pinktigerlili 0 Posted October 5, 2010 I feel very inspired by your story,congratulations on your weight loss,i feel the same way about the good foods,i guess when you commit to the band its time to give up the sweets and maccas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
