Yep I know I have been slack updating you all. In all honesty not much to report. Eating is going fine, exercise is still not going fine lol. Clothes are getting looser. I have more energy,
The only real difference is that my skin is getting really really itchy. Don't know if its from this or something else.
I also have to ask some other banders what it feels like when they get a blockage. For me, what it seems to feel like is having a stuck burp. You know that feeling of a big bubble in your chest that doesn't seem to move and you get extra gastic juices that taste bloody revolting.
It doesn't happen often but just once in a blue moon.
Well thats about it lol.

Yesterday spent the day being queasy. I think it was from the potato skina and also the grapes I had and the skin on them. Oh well I guess this is a live and learn situtation. I just know I will be more careful from now on.
When losing weight, one way to get rid of the fat is to breath it out so then you get halitosis. Now this isn't a good thing when talking to people so chewing gum can help. But at night when you have a cpap mask on and you get it, its not good lol. I had it so bad last night it woke me up. phewwweeee. Thank god I was the only one that could smell it haha

Saw dr yesterday and nope there is no alternative for my tablets but to crush them and bear it..yuk!! But on a good note, I might be able to come off of one of them... woohooo!!
With the dietican it was a good apt. He gave me some suggestions for meals. Basicly I would say have for breakfast - cereal, toast and fruit. Now of course I can't eat all that. So whatever I don't have I hold over to morning tea. Same with lunch and dinner. Hence eating 6 times a day and getting in everything I am suppose to.
Last night for dinner was ham steak cooked in a little pineapple juice from can topped with a ring of pineapple and served with jacket potato, wedge of pumpkin and cauliflower. I couldn't eat it all and didn't feel like having it for supper. But one Brekky suggestion it was useful for, so had it this morning. Left over veggies with a bit of parmesean cheese on toast. Have to say it was yummy and also a good way to get in veggies for the day. :)
Tops are starting to become very baggy....woohooo. Am focusing on getting to the 130's. Only about 4.6 kgs haha.
Can you imagine going from high 160's in Feb to 150's to 140's in such a short time and now nearly at 130's!!! Isn't life grand :)

So far so good with fill. Still on liquids but looking forward to seeing how food goes later today.
Isn't it funny how the mind works. You might go half the day without eating anything and it doesn't worry you, BUT be told you can't eat and suddenly you want food. haha. Guess that is the power of free will to decide on things hey.
As I have said before, its the little things that I notice. Like when someone says "wow look at the difference" I tend to think that maybe they are just saying that to make me feel good, rather than 'yes there is a big difference'. That probably doesn't make sense but it does to me. haha.
Anyway back to the little things. I mentioned the other day about my arms and the inside of the elbow. Well today its getting into a bra I haven't worn for well over 12 months. Yippeee!! I knew paying keeping the bras would pay off. Even if I have no other clothes to wear, I will have bras ... lol. Oh and jewellery. My rings are getting lose but thats ok because many years ago we had bought a new wedding band for me as my old one was too small. Now when I get back into that old one I will def know that I have lost a lot. You see its a size K. For those that don't know much about rings its about 49mm in round.
Now if you see me on here this week, you are to nag about exercise. lol.

Today you are all priviledged. I am posting todays photos haha
From that..... to this.....
From that..... to this.....
Look at this. Miss a few days writting and suddenly heaps to do haha.
I had the fill this morning, so hopefully things will get back on track.
You know me, things never seem to go smoothly.
Do you ever have one of those days where you are just emotional? Have you noticed that they seem to pop up at the worst times? Yep you have? Well that was me today.
I go in today to have fill. All is good. Go into scan room and they get me to sit on a chair and wait and wait. Then chinese radiographer tells me to get changed. I said ok but will I just take off my bra, thats what I had to do last fill and the other day. He looks in a book he has and said yep thats fine.
Him and scottish nurse get me organized on the table and get in dr to do proceedure. Well talk about attitude!! He went off at them because they were waiting for him to come and tell them what he wanted done. He said "My job is just to do the injection, yours is to have her ready. Get her changed she isn't sterile". I then had to get off the table, and get changed. The gown they gave me which was opened at the front, covered absolutely nothing.
At this point I just started crying. I don't know why. I have had so many operations and proceedures that it shouldn't of bothered me. I go in and back on table, everything hanging out. Poor chinese guy was "Lady why you cry. It won't hurt". The practice manager came in saw I was upset and got blankets to cover me up. Told them that I wasn't surpose to get changed, just take off bra and he shouldn't of said otherwise. That my clothes would be just as sterile as the gowns they use. She found the port, marked it and told the other two that yes the dr was suppose to do all this but was just being a princess.
He came back, made me sign a form to say I wouldn't hold him responsible for anything going wrong - I mean wtf. He did the injection of fluid and took off. Not even waiting until I had a drink to make sure it wasn't clogged.
I had to walk out to the front desk to sign a form, and then out past everyone in the waiting room with these red eyes, and still crying.
Do you think maybe next time it will go without a hitch haha.

Well lets hope today goes smoothly with getting the fill. I am so over ready for this!!
Now for anyone out there trying to lose weight I have the perfect solution. You know how we all have those clothes in our cupboards that you think - one day I will get back into that. Well throw them out!! Yep you heard me, throw them out. You see back in January or February I culled everything in my cupboard. If it didn't fit it went... well all of it did except bras. Do you know how expensive those damn things are???
So anyway I got rid of it all. As soon as I did I decided to have the lap band surgery. Lost the 5 kgs prior to seeing specialist, have since lost nearly another 20kgs and guess what??? I have no bloody winter clothes to wear lol. I threw them all out!!
I hear you say "well go and buy some more". My answer to that is "no, they won't fit me next year and I don't want to waste money" haha.
Around the house isn't too bad, daggy clothes are fine. Going out I have one stripped long sleeve rugby knit shirt. So if you see me out and about, yes I will always have the same clothes on but be assured, they are clean. lol.
