Thank you :puke: I have been booked in for 17th December eek no christmas dinner for me then huh lol! I finish up for xmas holiday on the 16th and dont go back til 10th January so thought that would be the best time for it! I will have to ask for more xmas prezzies to compensate the food! Does anyone know which airport in Brussels I should be flying to? I was looking at ryan air but they dont go to the international airport and was just wondering because of the taxi trips being in the package deal would I have to fly to a specific airport? x

I flew in to charleroi with ryan air bcause it was much cheaper(over £100 each) and we hired a car for 3 days which cost £60. It is too far for a taxi to be included in the package offered by Frederik but only about 50 minutes in the car and a straight road

Lol, if only it were that easy, because with each fill it changes, and sometimes with each day it changes too.

Just had to tell you that guys.

And there was me trying to put on a positive spin!!!

If you make a mistake, your band lets you know and you learn really quickly not to try that food again for a while! LOL:smile2:

I am going for my first fill next Thursday so I'll let you know how it goes.

Sorry.jpg

Shaz, but we cant have people thinking its a breeze, cos we both know its not dont we, unless you are one of the really lucky ones.

You do learn that each day its different on what your band will tolerate though.

I still make mistakes and I'm 20 months out. :puke:

Wishing you all the best, my op on the 25 x

thanks you too xxx

thanks for all the advice ladies, keep it coming I am learning sooo much. Its great to get all this before I go, it's so much better going with all the knowledge as I feel I will be better prepared. I am flying with Ryanair so the airport is a bit far away, I think we are just getting the train, the only thing is the flight home is really early in morning so think I will more than likely be extremely tired and irritated.. (nothing new then!!). xx

Hello All

I haven't had a good day. The stress is mounting as I am trying to finish my diploma coursework, have a new job with so much school preparation etc and a 10 year old that is behaving like a teenager! Bl***y hormones!

Stress really made my band very reactive today at lunch time and it wasn't pleasant believe me! I had to come home from school as I couldn't stop heaving. Finally, after about an hour I lost my boots and am now feeling a little better. But it was awful.

I agree that it some days one thing will go down really well and other days it may be quite the opposite! Just a complete nightmare. Wish I hadn't got out of bed!!

Anyway, upward and onward - come on Marine don't let the side down.

Have a good evening all.

Poor you Claire, I often feel that way, the food lays so heavily in my little tum, you feel so sick and eventually you have to be. I tell myself the reason for this is....cos I ate too much at one sitting.

Its so hard to get used to only a morsel of food, as we all know it takes the brain longer to register we are full than our mouths, so we keep trying to shovel it in lol.

Isnt anyone going on the 28th Oct and having the op on 29th?

Seems like my daughter is the only one from here :puke:

If only it had been like that!

I'd only had a small spoonful and as soon I ate it I knew it wasn't going to even make my stomach. It just felt very tight. It's not very pleasant when you have it sitting in the passageway and (to be blunt) just pours out of you. So definately no chance that it even made it to my tummy! Anyway, feeling a bit better.

Yoghurt I find is very soothing afterwards. I have heard that ice cream can do the same but again have tried to avoid it like the plague. Strict? Definately, not one ounce or morsel of banned food passes these lips and I am determined to keep losing!

      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.
