Hi to Brian, Vikki, Marion and Kathy for your concern about me - just to let you know i have not been able to see Dr D yet as i have started my new job - but have sort of gone back on fluids only as if i am just banded and seem to be managing a bit better on the liquids only - been able to keep down a litre or so of water and a cuppa soup and 1/2 optifast so at least is a lot better than i was. Colleen were you at Dr D's today - i was sure i saw you walk past my office !!!!

Jacqui,
You need to keep up your nutrition and if you are overfilled this can't happen and you may become quite ill. Go back to Dr D and get it fixed.

thanks colleen and Vikki for your words - i will see how i go and if it carries on will go and have some out - the only good thing about it is that i have lost 2.5 kgs this week (my weight has not shifted in over 2 months. But i know that the dehyrdration thing is not good, so will prob land up back at Dr D to have some out.

I agree with Coleen. Go back for a smidge out Jacqui. If you are vomiting and it won't stop then I think you should act ASAP.
I waited out a very tight fill last time and it did ease after about a fortnight. I was even having trouble with liquids well into the second week...BUT I wasn't vomiting. You don't want to put extra stress on the band that comes with continual vomiting...it could cause a slippage.
Ring Jane in the morning to see if Dr D is around and go straight in.
Let us know how you go.

Hi Jacqui,
I know when i was getting fills it took sometimes a week before it really kicked in. But saying that i did have an overfill 10 days after a fill which at the time i thought of as strange but it was explained to me that there are pleats in the band and it can take some time to fill those pleats up and sometimes when it does it can become too tight.
If you cant keep even water down i would be going to either the emergency dept or just going to see Dr D in the morning because you will be dehydrated and you will be stressing not only your body but you will be inflaming you stomach.
Hope this helps a little
Coleen

Sorry has been a while since i chatted - but i still read every day - struggling at the moment. Had a fill over a week ago, but all of a sudden yesterday tried to have some oats for breakfast and managed two teaspoons. Since then have not stopped vomitting - had the most awful reflux/heartburn. Went to get some medicine from Dr. Dolan - but did not see him - problem is that i cant even keep down the water to get the tablets down - so that is two days of keeping nothing down - but was fine when i had the fill for the whole week - Why all of a sudden this !!!!

Sorry Jane, I have been a tad busy ( final touches to our Rental. Thankfully the carpet goes down in the bedrooms tomorrow. So we should have it rented by end of next week!! YEHHHHH I'm so over it! )
Consequently, I just slipped in last night and first thing this morning to double check I wasn't the only one turning up for our challenge...Thus I haven't read the board for a few days!
As Brian mentioned we...6 of us ( Myself, Brian, Carol, Coleen, Marion and her gorgeous daughter Megan ) DID the Inaugural Jacobs Ladder Challenge this morning. We plan to follow it up monthly....AND most of us did it 6 times in 1/2 an hour. I say 6x but realistically it's just 3x ( up and down ) I believe it's 240 steps long! OMG and I felt every step I took. My legs still feel like jelly 4hrs later!
I will put the 'before' piccies on Bandsters in a tick...no one wanted an 'after'...we were a tad sweaty LOL!
How's this...Marion wasn't feeling well yet she did what we 'heathy' could only cope with. A few weeks ago she climbed it 7x ( 14 in my language LOL! )...OMG only in my dreams!
I'm striving for 4x next month. Phew...I hope to be a few kgs lighter by then...Hopefully in the 80's! Come to think of it, I was the one lugging the most weight up and down those darn steps! No wonder my legs feel like jelly.

Hi jane,
I saw her today. A few of us met and climbed Jacob's ladder in Kings park. I've no doubt she'll be letting you know how it all went.

Thanks Jane,
This used to be a very active thread and was never off the front, but now I think the Bunbury thread is busier.

Sharon...and anyone else that wants to join me ( as you are all more than welcome! )
Why not meet me for a coffee at the Cafe just inside the door at the Craigie Leisure Centre on Whitfords Ave next Friday morning at 11am. I will bring your plants that I got from Marion...if I haven't killed them by then! LOL
You know you could join me in the pool for a water aerobics session at 9.30am ( as mentioned below ) if you'd like!...BUT not compulsory! If you don't want to get your toes wet then just come along for a coffee and a chat.

Nat... after calling them, Bronwyn( the receptionist) can be quite RUDE!
But... with all that said, the only reason I was anxious to get into the anaethaist was because I am starting a new job, and so far they have been very forgiving with all the appointments and surgery. I want to let them know everything upfront before I start next week, and I was also trying to book everything as close together as possible or even on the same day.
You may have a different response, but when I spoke with Bronwyn last, she didnt know when the anaethasist was booking any more appointments. |

Yes Sue you are more than welcome to jump in here and enjoy the ambience! We are considering sprucing up the place though!! LOL
Good on you for joining Curves! ( and -17kg is nothing to sneeze at..it's fabulous!) I live around the corner from that Curves ( yes, there are others in Perth ) but I'm still not ready to hit the gym. I decided way back at 115.5kgs that when I get into the 80's (kg) I will join a gym as I'll need to apply myself by then. Mind you I was only telling a friend last night that my next goal is to crack the 80's...Rather BIG for me as I haven't been in the 80's since the 80's!!! LOL
Hope to catch up with you soon. Is there a day during the week that you are not working? Sharon would like to catch up and she has Monday and Fridays off??
So true Jane! Joining is one thing...Going...well that's another.
Well I best away. I'm off to Water Aerobics...still have not had any of you join me yet! Friday mornings Craigie Leisure Centre 9.30am ( Deep Aqua ) $ 9.50 Its an hour class but the time flies. I stay on for a few laps after... and would stay for a coffee if I had some company! Kinda feel like I'm cheating with this form of exercise as the water negates the impact, while you are still getting all the benifit. It's not difficult and you don't know you are actually sweating LOL!!
