I've had my fill!

I gave myself a headache I was so worried about it, and all it was was a teeny tiny little needle prick! LOL! What a dill I am!

Anyway, they weighed me, and I'm at 112.4kg which is less than Monday which is awesome! And I know I'm losing weight as I had a favourite top on today that was heaps looser and I needed a safety pin to hold up my pants so they didn't fall off!

I have a 10ml (small) band in, and I only had 1.5ml in before but now I have 4.5ml (or was it 4ml?) so hopefully that will be great! I don't have to go back for another 4 weeks. They're a little concerned about the redness under my port incision, which was quite inflamed in the week after the operation (I went on antibiotics), so they said if it gets ANY redder to call them, and I'll go back on antibiotics.

So all in all a successful visit!

Tiny bit

I had a tiny bit of sausage tonight. I was slicing it up for the kids and I debated and I ate one bit. I regretted it straight away. It did nothing for me, tasted ok, but certainly didn't satisfy any craving or anything. Oh well. *sigh* Onwards and upwards.

I bought some sugar free chewing gum today to stop my mouth being bored.

I'm feeling a bit low today. I have a head cold too (just to top off the cough I've had for a couple of weeks) and my ears are blocked and I have a headache and it's just hard to feel positive right now.

I have my appointment with the surgeon's assistant/dietician tomorrow morning.

Relief

My two day headache is gone! What a relief. It's made it all so much worse. My period just arrived so that would have been playing a factor in how I felt, probably the headache too.


I had a hot cup of water today. My Mum drinks them all the time and to be honest............. THEY'RE HORRIDLY BORING!!! LOL!! I was hoping for some miracle that it was actually nice. But meh, not really. But my chest (with this cough) likes the heat so I'm sure it was good still.

I'm having my vanilla shake now, I really don't like that flavour much. Oh well. At least it is flavour! LOL!

Day 2

It's day 2, I've woken with the headache that I've had all day yesterday and during the night (although I took tablets), but it is a bit less, which I'm grateful for. I'm having my first shake of the day now, another chocolate one (definitely the better of the two) and it tastes good. I've been making them up with 300ml instead of 200ml water, just so it makes it go a bit further and I can have more fluids with flavour!

To be honest I hope today is better than yesterday. It was way harder than I anticipated. I think it was a lot of withdrawal from things like sugar, salt and caffeine. I felt horrid. And was being horrid - my mood was NOT pleasant. ;)

Fog

Obviously my body isn't liking missing things like sugar and salt or whatever. I'm feeling quite foggy and my head is aching.

I've decided to have one shake at breakfast, one at lunch, one later in afternoon and then the vegetables at dinner time, just to spread it out.
