Like a pint of vodka & coke? Lovin the swallys/swallies.....Bigsis x

ps Are swallys in the Protein group?

I prefer cider and whiskey but not in the same glass.lol

I kid myself on that my swally is full of protein and if i drink it after eight at night the does not count.

But in reality its full off sugars .But i dont eat crisps, bread, biscuits, chocolate ,pasta ,cakes ,chips all the things i used to eat.

So thats my treat and a little bit of what you fancy does you good.xx

Hi guys,

Well I was banded last Wed 12th August.

Took those lovely stockings off today and my legs can finally breathe!!!

Really trying to get the 2 litres of Water in to me, and managing 1.5 litres along with Actimel for Breakfast, fresh home made fruit juice at lunch and bowl of home made Soup for dinner.< /p>

Feeling really weak today and falling asleep at 6pm.....

Just back from Tesco and bought some Condensed Milk. Had 4 teaspoons and great sugar kick. Also had about 4 of my daughter's 'Skips', as they dissolve on the tongue.

I'm taking dissolvable Multi Vitamins too.

Roll on Saturday, so I can start the mushies...

Just a quick suggestion for those who are using a low carb diet and are out and about and need something quick and easy. Have you tried the TESCO CARB Control milk shake type drinks they come ready made in strawberry or chocolate cost just under £1. The net carb is only 1.5g, and for those who count calories its 170, they keep me satisfied all day, and are great for liquid days and to carry in your bag in an emergency, but make sure its the carb control one you pick up (its written all over the package) and not the tescos light shake, which is high carb like slimfast. They taste ok only, but you wont look for any other food for ages.

Well, I'm off on "holiday" tomorrow. Why the quotes I hear you ask? Try this for a break from the office: there will be Mother in Law (84), Father in Law (90), Hubby and two daughters, Brother in law, wife and three children, Brother in law, wife and two children, Sister in law, husband, three children, dogs and headlice! Deep joy!! The daughters in law are expected to share the cooking, which means sharing an unfamiliar kitchen feeding dozens of hungry mouths, finding ingredients in an unfamiliar supermarket and no choice of meal or portions. We've done it every year, though I often spend a great deal of time walking - as far away as possible! Until 2007 we took Gran with us too, she was born in 1899!!This year we have a farmhouse in South Wales. BUT, it gets me away from my own sister and her attitude for a few days!!

So, be good whilst I'm away and I look forward to catching up with all the news next weekend, when I shall only be one week away from banding :blink:

Hi SP - you paying for this 'torture' too?! Well at least your banding trip will seem like a proper holiday at the side of it then? Good luck and drop in when you get back (if you feel recovered enough!) Take care, Bigsis x

ps A 'treatment' may be recommended before going to Belgium - they may be a bit (nit) picky about headlice!

Thanks BigSis, yes, we contribute towards the cost of the week, though M+F-i-L pick up the majority of the tab. Hubby is driving them there in their car, elder daughter is taking her own car so I get the luxury of my little two seater with my own choice of music whilst pootling the length of the M4!

Don't worry about the uninvited guests, sister in law enjoys spending her evenings grooming them from her little darlings. I retreat to my bed with a good book!

Hi Sp

Holiday sounds exhausting, but I expect you enjoy being with the family..........Have a good one!!!!!! I would recommend a treatment before you go to Brussels as well, although I as thinking of maybe a facial, reflexoligy or something relaxing!!!!

Have a lovely holiday parrot, well as lovely as possible. At least you can eat what you like atm, so thats a bonus lol.

I know Corned beef is not everyones cup of tea, but i love it. We always used to make Spag Bol, chillie and lasanga with it as I never buy mince, I hate what they put in it, so as i dont know whats in c. beef I can eat it till the cows come home.

I sent for a meat mincer from Ebay which should be here next week, thought I'll mince my own meat, that way I know whats going in it. I used to have a mincer years ago when the kids were little and I used to bake a lot, but dont know what happened to it.

My fella used to be a store manager for safeways and the amount of fat they put in with the meat to make mince is appalling, hence why we never buy it from anywhere.

Hi singing parrot, hope you have a fab time here in South Wales, if you want to let me know what part of Wales, nearest town, I'll probably be able to give you a good escape plan and let you know of some interesting things to do, have fun hope the sun will shine for you.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
