8 Weeks + 2 days post op

Well, today I finished all the painting. Still a huge list of things to do, but that is not one of them. Also put up the mirrors and clocks again, so its more like home again.

Didn't do much all day, pottered about the house doing this and that and moving furniture back into place, dusting etc. Yawn.

Band and eating wise.... Well see what you think....
For breakfast I had a bowl of Ready Brek porridge with maple syrup.
I had 3 little Cadbury's animal biscuits mid morning
Lunch was a Wiltshire Farm meal - Chicken and lentils.
And this evening, we went out to dinner tonight with Friends and they did a BBQ.

I ate for dinner: 1 chicken drum stick, 2 chicken kebabs on a stick, 1 sausage, 2 pieces of garlic bread and a tortilla wrap with another chicken kebab put in it. I could also have eaten more.
I was full, but I didn't feel I needed to stop. I was not even particularly hungry when I sat down to eat.

I think this is a lot of food.... Not as much as I would have normally eaten, and certainly not as much as all the others there ate either, but a lot of food for a bandit.

I think its fill time again. I can't have one for another 2 weeks though. However, I am going to book the appointment first thing Monday!

Its hit me really suddenly. This is so weird. What happens to this band? I mean, one day you have restriction and the next day seemingly none... Does it stretch or what?

Anyway, I noticed I was checking out the contents of the pantry a couple of times today.... I didn't grab anything, but that was only because there was nothing there to grab!

I will monitor the situation and see what happens. I don't think I should have been able to eat that much at 7pm after only having eaten lunch at 2:30pm...

But hey!

Whilst at our friend's house I saw the most AWFUL photo of me EVER in the history of the universe. I was their bridesmaid and I have a photo of me in the dress looking the size of a pachyderm. I look awful. Badly bleached hair, too tanned and humongous! I was at my heaviest here 19 stone 2lb (or 268 lbs).

I will post it to the gallery when I get a chance!

Keep it up lap banders! This time next year we will be slim babes!
