Thanks Nic
Family say, oh no you're fine now...ha ha...great when people love you as you are hey.
I keep most of my weight on my legs...lucky me...I havn't been brave enough to post a full body pic yet. Those that do are very brave hey.
A fellow bandit told me about this months Slimming&Health Mag, it has a free food diary with it. So I've strated using it as of today, I am really trying to confront so many issues.
2008 is THE YEAR.
Have a great day all.

Yippee Nic!!
You really are an inspiration :-D I love reading your thread and following your journey, I like your attitude to this path we've chosen and it fits with the way I'm trying.
I know what you mean about getting close to a goal being motivating. I weighed (illegally LOL) this morning, was just feeling 'lighter' so hopped on the scales and I'm another kg down and 1 measly kg from HALF WAY THERE! I was dancing around the bathroom (nekid) like a lunatic. Now I'm absolutely determined to move that next kg - 25kg down here I come! It's almost like success breeds more success and more success!
I LOVE my band.

Woo Hooo!!!! 84kg today!!! I'm sniffing at the 70's!!! :)
If i'm ever lacking motivation all i need is to get past the 5 (mid mark) and i'm good after that because i'm so keen into the next decade that i start paying attention again. :)
if you wanna be somebody (well.....i already am somebody)
if you wanna go somewhere
you better wake up and pay attention
when the time is now or never
to make your dreams come true
you gotta wake up and pay attention...da. da. da..da.da... |

Nah i just think she's worked out a way that suits her, we have our way too. :) I am a big believer in tailoring life to suit you wherever possibly. It would be nice to have a personal chef specializing in band food hey? :)

Sounds like Peta has control...unlike me LOL.
I am moving more...I am eating wholefoods and feeling well on it, but the fact is i'm not losing, so as a friend suggested, too many fats in nuts and dried fruits.
So looking for a drastic measure, like, a 4 day opti challenge to start me off, or or two meals of opti a day...I wish I was rich and someone could control all of this for me.

Ah Jen, my sister in snacking. :) You know i am the same, always have been and have no desire to change :).
I keep a close eye on how much i eat each day so there shouldn't be a problem and the fact is i just can't eat 1 cup per meal. Will try to space the feedings out a bit more though, Peta might be onto something there.

Hi Nic and friends
Peta I'm impressed with your restraint. I think your three bowls of food is wonderful, I just don't think I could keep to that, because I am an habitual grazer...but I will keep it in mind. I am currently trying to work out a cunning plan to get the weight moving in the right way again.

Another thing is how much fill you have in your band tells you might have to eat less than normal.. for me is a cup per meal 3 times a day which is breakfast, lunch and dinner and normally it is 4 hours each so i know i wont overfed myself. There are days when i get a little down i eat chocolate or something and get myself overfed i need to snap out of that but i couldnt resist chocolate !!!!
Hope that helps ! |

Maybe you should try having breakfast 4 hours before your actual lunch. It might help as i find 2 hours after breakfast i still feeling full and not hungry. Maybe that might be the problem you are having that the food has not pass thru since 4 hours as i know it takes 4 hours for the food to pass until you feeling a little peckish to have lunch. I couldnt eat after 2 hours coz im still full lol i guess everyone is different maybe you should try and have breakfast then wait 4 hours till you really feel peckish.
Cheers

| The thing i want to know is how long does the food sit in our pouches? I'm wondering if breakfast is still in there if i had breakfast 2 hours before lunch? Because the two together could mean i overfed myself but i only eat 1/2 a cup of food per meal, can't get anything else in. I don't like the feeling of food in my pouch which is weird so i tend to stop eating pretty quickly, let it settle and eat something else an hour or hour and a 1/2 later. |

I dont have it the pain in the back but i get them in the front under my left rib it tells me im full or overfed myself a little. It goes away after 1 hour when i have my first drink. I think its quite normal. Sometimes it can be cause by change of weather or hormonal thing.

I wonder if anyone else has a similar thing to me, i have discovered something odd about the band for me. When i let food sit in my pouch too long without having even a couple of sips of drink to wash some down i get a pain in my back (up high near the stomach). My body doesn't seem to like having food sitting in the pouch. It's just a dull ache and if i have a really hot shower the muscles relax and the food either passes through or something? It's not something that worries me it's just a pest. The good news is that once i wash some of it down, i don't get hungry soon after but the discomfort goes away. Does this ring a bell for anyone?

| Hi Peta, Just go down to what you're comfortable at. It's lovely that he thinks you're perfect just the way you are but he doesn't have to live in your body. I've got a fella like that. "But you look great!" I'm not happy yet, i'm still 85kg and i'm not ready to stop yet. I think i'll be happy with 69 just to be in the 60's but i'm no where near that. :) Nice to have a bloke who loves the person not the package they come in. |
