| Hi Maree and welcome. All the best for your procedure coming up. Yes i agree, 80kg in a year is astounding but there are so many similarly incredible stories on here. Its just awesome isn't it. For those of you who are wondering how to add your details, you just highlight the entire text, left click your mouse button and then choose copy. You open up your new post and then you left click your mouse button again and then choose paste. Once the text is pasted you can edit or add the sections you want. Jo |

| Hi all, Sorry I haven't checked in. Today is 5 days post-op and I feel fantastic (knock wood...) I only really had gas pain for teh first 2 days- I think because my surgeon was a real stickler for getting me up and out of bed walking around within an hour of surgery. I have been walking for 1/2 hour (gently) everyday to dissapate any gas too. I dont seem to have too much trouble with eating- just sticking to fluids like soup, drinking yoghurt and suprisingly optifast! But I am just really not interested in food! Back to work tomorrow. Hope my fellow week 1 bandits are going well, and the week 2 guys are excited! Amy |

| Hi Everyone Just to update on what I'm up to. Feeling pretty good but still not going back to work for a couple of days. I thought I might have pulled a stitch this afternoon...god it hurt. But all good now. I think the better I get the more invincible I think I am. I need to sit back and relax. Made mushroom soup tonight. YUMMY. But I ate too much. Only had a cup full but I have been sooo thirsty and trying to drink lots of water which has been filling me up as well. Hows everyone else going? Louise |

| Wow....you all seem to be doing so well. I went to an info night and met a guy who lost 80 kg in a year and has maintained for a year. He did everything he was told to do. Isn't that amazing??? He isn't obsessed with food anymore...I so want that. I gather we just add our details such as date of op etc. I can't seem to add it so was hoping someone would do it for me??? Here goes: 14/12 Maree (Mareed21d) Age 40 Hgt 165 BMI 39 SW 105 Min GW 78 CW 102 TL 3 |

| Hi Caroline, Just try and hang in,, a few more days with Opti,, I know its hard sometimes but ya really can do it,,I had as snacks,, diet jelly with some strawberries or passionfruit on them,, cut them into squares and enjoy, or I would get those Asian salads ready made from Coles or Wollies and have it all with a bar. I gotta say Im feeling soooo good 5 days post,, not much shoulder pain today either so seems thats settling, and burping easier,, try and rest as much as you can after banding,, that helps,, tell hubby he gotta do everything,,lol,, and make it as long as ya think he will believe ya,,lol,, I dont have that prob,, its just me so its easy to go rest.

| Hi Lyn - You're five days post surgery and you're making lunch for friends? You're obviously feeling pretty good then? Good for you! Well... I'm being banded this Thursday and I have to say.. I've slipped up a bit on the Optifast phase. I've been pretty good generally, but then went out with family to the shops on Sunday and 'treated' myself to half an (extremely large) bowl of Vietnamese curry (including the buttered bread!)... Then had lunch at my mothers' on Sunday and helped myself to a second wrap (with jam!). I see so many on here doing so well having been banded, but I'm concerned that even the band won't help me break habits of old. I haven't told my family (mother, brothers & sisters) about my getting the band, so I'm not sure how I'll handle Christmas day - usually a free-for-all on some beautiful, beautiful food! Am hoping there'll be something there that I can chew enough to create "mushy" food! Caroline |

| Hi All 1 week post op for me today. Just finished vacuming the lounge. It is 11.30am and guess what I forgot to eat. My problem is remembering to drink enough fluids. Finding the liquid phase so much easier than the opti phase. Still tiring easily but getting better each day. Have been reading a book by Paul o'Brien on lap bands. Really good book and very informative. Not obsessing about food but now need to not obsess about my weight. Good luck to all being done today. All will look so much better after a few days. Kaz |

| Hi Maree I totally DETESTED the Optifast stage! It used to make me sick as soon as I had the first mouthful. But its worth it in the end. If nothing else think of the extra kilos it will add to your loss. I am 4 days pre op and I have lost 11kg. I'm sure once I'm on mushies and eating again this may go up a little but I am trying to think of the bigger picture. Hope everyone from last week is going well. I am thinking of going back to work tomorrow just to do some paperwork. And good luck to everyone that is having their operations this week Louise |

| Sounds like everyone is going well...keep up the great work Good luck to all the bandits going in this week One week for me to go till the op. I have lost 3kg on the Optifast so am happy with that although it does make me feel nausous at times....anyone else find that?? Talk soon Maree |

| Hi everyone. DAY 5 POST-OP for me. I have lost 9.1kg all up since starting the pre-op diet. That would be 2.5kg since the op last wednesday. I will probably just weigh in on wednesdays from now on tho. I am feeling more human today, lol. I still have some gas discomfort but it is not really painful or anything, just annoying. I am looking forward to the day it is gone for good. I keep thinking i have gotten rid of it but then it is back again. I am still eating (drinking) very little. I do feel some discomfort when i have my cup of tea, soup etc. I'm not sure if its from the wind or the band or what? Looking forward to that easing. I wanted to eat so many things these past few days. everything that someone eats in the house smells absolutely delicious. I never knew that i ate for pleasure, not for hunger. I have only just realised that now. People on here call it head hunger. I am not physically hungry at all but i want to eat. I just remind myself that i have been eating all my life and that a few weeks of not eating wont kill me. Anyway, good luck to whoever is going up this week. It is just a process we need to get through in order to get to where we want to go. Just prepare yourself to deal with whatever comes and you'll be just fine. Its only a few days or weeks out or our lives. All the best, Jo |

| Hi Lyn, Even since i have been on the optifast it has really shown me how much our lives revolve around food so its interesting that you said you focused on the ppl you were with and the lovely day instead of the food. I will stock up on peppermint tea today so I have it when I get home.I am nervous but also can't wait for it to be wednesday and all over ( as far as the surgery goes) I realise its really going to be just the begining. I would also like to wish all the ppl that are being banded this week all the best and cant wait to talk once we are on the other side :).. Lesley B |

| Good luck on Tuesday Lesley B and to all those others being banded this week, I know how you feel right now, a little nervous, apprehensive etc, but trust me, its all good :)) its a pretty simple operation and doesnt take long and for me the pain isnt anymore than a sore finger for a few days, I think the wanting to burp is worse till you find a way to do it and I found peppermint tea is good for that, so when you have your band, nurture it, do the right thing, follow your dietitians advice and your surgeon and you will all be just fine :)) And to you first weekers hows it going? I went out for lunch with my daughter and a couple of friends, well, they had wine with fish and salad, I had half a glass of wine and a bowl of icecream,,no soup on the menu so it worked and I didnt feel left out,,lol,,having others around eating all sorts of things surprisingly didnt bother me I focused on enjoying the people I was with and the beautiful sunny day :)) Lyn |

| Hi Belen, I know what you mean by nesting, I still have 17 days till op. but I have been busy sorting and cleaning. (some things that had not been touched in a year) much like before giving birth. So much to do, not enough hours in the day. Well done on your weight loss, it's great!!! Cathy:) |
