Hi Tasha you are going to feel a lot of things leading up to your admission date trust me I put it off I was so stressed but in the end I was strong and had enough of yo yo diets so I went for it had my op in June I was 159kg and now I am 133kg a long way to go once apon-a-time 12 years ago I was 58kg then I met my husband had 8 pregnancys 3 of my babys made it into the world but thats another story.
so all I can say is as hard as the optifast is stick to it try putting coffee powder in the choc or vanilla to change it plus it helps when you crave a coffee. The chicken soup is good I like that one I think he puts us on this as it shrinks everthing inside which makes it easier for him to work a friend had it done a few years ago by a different dr he did not do the optifast piged out and they nicked something bad and went into tosic shock was in hospital for 3 mths so I did everything by the book and so did my husband who had it done on the same day as me he was 170kg and is now 132kg he is beating me I need to put some more butter into his mash potatoes LoL we have been so happy since having it done so good luck to everyone having it done;-)

JOTD
A man enters a barbershop for a shave. While the barber is foaming him up, he mentions the problems he has getting a close shave around the cheeks. "I have just the thing." says the barber taking a small wooden ball from a nearby drawer. "Just place this between your cheek and gum."
The client places the ball in his mouth and the barber proceeds with the closest shave the man has ever experienced. After a few more strokes, the client asks in garbled speech, "And what if I swallow it?"
"No problem!" says the barber "Just bring it back tomorrow like everyone else does." |

Hi Shona, I have a car, great engine, but needs a front window, has been yellow stickered because of that but if you would like to take it off our hands for $400 will be great. was for my daughter but she can't afford to keep it. Got price for new window $200. But then once all done you'll have a good car with good engine etc. message me on my email if want. shirlkb@westnet.com.au

Hi everyone
I am now two weeks post banding and notice that the port seems to have moved (in fact it has moved) is this normal. It is very easy to feel and feels as if it just under the skin. Would appreciate knowing what others feel/find with their ports.

Hi All
Well moving day happened all went smoothly no nastiness or bitterness , no nothing which was great. The girls and I helped unpack and set up which he appreciated heaps and the girls loved doing it. I hung up his army photos and his army shields which made it feel more like his own place. He seems fine knowing the girls will come up and say gday. My sister and I have to deliver the sofa bed and a few other big items tomorrow as she has the big Ute and can help heaps.
Its a good self contained unit off the main house and quite large. Two rocks is lovely and has a nice breeze which goes through the garden nicely and around his patio area under the mulberry trees etc, with some lovely jasmine flowers providing aroma too. He will need to get a wee table and a couple of patio chairs so he can sit out. He smokes outside which is nice also he reckons as it feels quite ambient.
I am taking ex hubby up a mobile phone tomorrow so he can contact us and vice versa. I did have a bit of a cry in the car as we left , it felt a bit strange as 18 years of marriage down the gurgler but felt good at the same time. It still hurts a bit but hey I am a big girl and will go on and prosper now, nothing to hold me back. All my uni stuff has come except the password for the online tutor which I will call them tomorrow as I need it ASAP. My book has come from SA Uni only took one day god that's quick for a uni.
Tonight I have been so less stressed and so are the girls which is nice, I am tired however maybe its the relief and stress going out of the body after many
Months. It is going to be better for us in the long run. The girls and I have been watching DVDs - Priscilla Queen of the Desert.
I will be going to Centrelink on Friday to tell them he has moved and that we no longer have combined income. I need the rental assistance to go up now etc.

K, I haven't worked that out yet, i'm still in negotiations with hubby as i'm not letting it go unless he agrees that i'm not to have a ute as i've decided that, that would be bloody monstrous.lol.
Shona, chin up. It's hard at first but you will be at peace once the dust settles and it won't all feel so raw. I completely understand what you are feeling and am forever grateful that I walked away when I did. Alcohol is a poison in my opinion, I very rarely drink it (just some baileys now and then..hic).
