Tiarn · July 6, 2009

Hi all

I'm new to the site. I was banded on 5th of June 2009 at Glengarry Hospital, by Dr Dolan.

I started off at 125 kilo and hope to get down to 75 kilo.

I'd love to hear from anyone who has some good advice and ideas to help me along. Also anyone from Perth, who wants to chat.:tongue_smilie:

Wow you have lost so much already. Good for you. I feel my loss is too slow, but then I'm very impaitent. I guess after I've had the fill I won't feel so hungry and deprived. I'm still thrilled to actually be eating some normal food again and find that I'm automatically going for the healthy choice. I hope I stick with that. Not to say I don't crave some chocolate of something "naughty" once in a while.

I have my next appointment with Dr Dolan on Monday, so I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next (hopefully the fill). Got to up my exercise a litte more, but the wet weather and another cold hasn't helped. Just quick walks with the kids and dog and the exercise bike at the moment. Going to try Water aerobics on a Tuesday night at the local heated pool.

Are you doing much exercise and if so what, would love some ideas.
