Gillian I love ur thinking with the weightloss - I think I;ve lost about a sack of ur dog food!! Ur right it's very hard to lift that much and we;ve been carrying it around on ourselves!

Wishful - I had a few bites of a BK burger on hol and had to PB it into my drink carton - good job no one saw me!! I'm sticking to fish for a while!!

Gary - I will try quorn again. I made a lasagne a while back but didn't like it. I think I put too much salt in it though!

Freckles - how's ur mum today? x

Good morning everyone else, hope it's a good one x

hi all on the 5th day of liquids after op and I am seriously sick of Soup I can cope with Bfast and lunch but at dinner Im looking for some thing hot, anyone got any Ideas other than SOUP. thanks J x

i got one of those squashy packets of korma sauce, and had few carrots in it and some fresh coriander on top when i was at your stage...i know it doesnt sound great, but it was like nectar at the side of the boring soup! also home made egg custard, those tubs of cream caramel, and ground rice goes down well. you enjoy your sons graduation, just hold a sandwhich in your hand and a drink in the other, then swap it for a piece of cake or summat when no ones looking, have a drink, but not much and not fizzy..you could add cranberry juice to a bit of wine or something, no one will know..i could imagine that the champagne wont go down well, so only a few sips!. i know a lot of people have trouble with fizzy drinks but as the time has gone on, i can drink lager fine now, also sparkling wine same as before pre banding...just not coke or lemonade etc. you have a great day anyway..is it july 3rd?..thats my birthday! x

Hi homecare, you must be really proud of your son.. like sammy said try and get as much rest as possible and try not to worry to much about if people will notice if you are eating or not, as long as you are careful about what you are eating im sure everything will run smoothly and your probably worrying for nothing, plus you will be feeling a little better by then x

what did you put in it gary? jx

well there are two ways if you wnt the simple way then buy any of the patak jars of curry paste they are fantastic, but black lentils or normal split yellow/red lentils and soak them, then boil them in salted Water till cooked then drin.fry off a few onions in garlic add the paste and a tin of tomatoes then add fresh ginger and the lentils and simmer for 15-20 mins and watch out for it burning, then add frsh corriander nd some low fat(of course) creme fraiche.

Voila

I hasten to adD Madhur Jaffery am no.

like gary says, you should be ok with the mince and sauce..eat slow, and make some excuse about you being hot and not mega hungry, and just ask for a small bit cos it looks delicious, and youd hate to waste any! enjoy it anyway x

Hi alex can't you say you dont like lasagna, or say you have got a really bad ulcer at the back of your tongue and you can hardly eat anything.. i couldnt manage mince that soon after my band.. if it is you have it just take your time, eat small amounts and chew very well, hope everything goes well x
