| Wow glad it is all sorted and not a slip. You should have a great time now with no fill in. Just try to relax a bit and take it nice and easy for the next couple of days food wise. Linda |

| Well i just can't get enough of fun and games. :) Ended up in the emergency department of the RBH for the night on saturday night with a blockage, 3 ltrs of fluid to get me redydrated. The most lovely nurse who also had a band just whisked me in past the waiting room and started taking care of me. On sunday morning i had all my fill out and all is good. Couldn't get GG but Dr Ian Martin was taking care of his patients for the weekend and what a lovely man! He didn't even charge me for taking out my fill. He said to the receptionist "we were never here." :) Ok, i'm ready for nothing else to go wrong and the trip to be great! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| HI Mel, I have had a ml taken out and it was good for a couple of days until "the carrot incident". Now it's still very tight. At night mainly, seems like the food of the day builds up and i'm pbing at night and feel very uncomfortable. I've either had a slip, am stressed/hyped up over the trip,the cooler weather has kicked in or everything is a little swollen due to the excessive pbing. Either way i can drink as much as i want during the day, eaten about a cup of food today. The problem here is that i have bug ger all time before we leave. Not sure what to do. The good news is that i will loose a c r a p load while i'm away. :) And i can still take my multi-v in the morning. :) Nic And yes Linda i will definatly stay away from those carrots, i feel ill just looking at them and threw them in the bin. :) |

| Good idea Nic and stay away from carrots! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hey Nic... Have you had any fill out yet for this trip? I hope you have... you want to be able to enjoy the beautiful European cuisine. I probably already know this, but have forgotten if you decided to get fill out. Anyway, hope you did so that you can enjoy it. Life is too short to be worrying about weight loss whilst you are on a fantastic holiday!!! Mel |

| HI Linda, Have just had 1/3 of a cup of water and don't feel irritated so that's good at least. I was thinking what a c r apper it would be if i couldn't go on my trip because i'd managed to dislodge the band with constantly throwing up. Will stay on liquids today at least and just be a little gentle with myself. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| how r u today? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| OK, lesson learned the first time. Had two small raw carrots for brekkie this morning at 9am (lollies of the vegetable world) and i've been talking to chuck and ralph ever since. Right now i'm just trying to keep down a few mouthfuls of water. Yes, i will go to the hospital first thing if things haven't settled down. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| THanks Linda :) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3 weeks is plenty long enough. I hope you have a lovely time and enjoy all your new clothes. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Only 3 weeks i'm afraid Linda. A bare minimum but a max if you have a little child you're going to miss. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Nic how long will you be away? Linda |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| yeah, for a special occassion. :) We were just finding that we were eating out at least twice a week with our nights out and dinner with friends and whatever and 2 nights a week of misery, waking up coughing 6 or so times was not worth the effort. :( |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I am avoiding dinners....i can eat...but without a doubt it won't budge by sleeping time and i will have reflux. so if i'm offered a hot date at night, i will eat, but i will suffer, but hey...some suffering is worth it lol. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Thanks Jen, i can cope with anything the day throws at meyou do when with a good nights sleep. Tiny dinners make a lot of sense but what do when you have to go out for dinner? YUP, almost time for the trip. I'm still so excited, this time next week we will be in the air. :) |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| so happy to hear you had a night with no reflux...;fantastic...to have a normal night...great nic. No I don't get hungry...i don't want to talk too soon, but i am thinking i'm close to the sweet spot...i now eat after three...but tiny bits, not because i am hungry, but because i just want some flavour in my mouth...so i have tiny dinners now and am sleeping well... bon voyage almost Nic. jxxx |

| 6 sleeps | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I was measured before my surgery and i measured myself again today for the first time since that measurement. I have lost 63 cm or 24 inches or 2ft off my body!!!!!! Needless to say, i'm well chuffed! hehehehehe Doing the dance of joy. |

| Filling but not heavy funnily enough. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I think raw carrot would sit pretty heavy though. It is very dense. Linda |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I have to say Linda, i was a bit concerned before i went to bed and feeling that slight bit of acid. Telling myself that it might take a couple of days to kick in but worrying that it might not kick in at all. Looks like i'll have a nice holiday after all! :) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Thats great Nic Linda |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| yahoooooo!!!! My first night with no reflux!! I had a litte bit of burn just before i went to bed, had a swig of that vile stuff and felt nothing more from that point. Woke up this morning with no acid at all. Three cheers for less fill!!! :) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3pm Jen!!!! Don't you get hungry?!?! :( eeeeeeeekkkkk!!! Oh you poor thing. :( I tell you, i just got jack of that bizzo. I'm a wus i know. :) Must say i feel great. I'm (hopefully) looking forward to a good nights sleep. I didn't push it and eat beyond 6pm but i had the sheer delight of eating two small raw carrots for dinner!!! I know this might sound a little odd but this is the first time in i don't know how long that i have been able to eat raw carrots. :) So that proves to me, along with the scones for arvo tea that all should be fine for the trip and i'll be able to eat practically (banded) normally. If i'm a good girl and walk it all off i will hopefully come home with a bit of extra weight off. Yahoooooo!!!!!! |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Yeah, i didn't mind when it was tight. It can be tight as a drum for all i care, it means i loose weight but when you throw reflux in with the mix i'm taking my marbles and going home. :) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
