    That's fantastic...well done! Nerves are normal...you thought carefully about your decision though and you know it's what you want, so just think ahead to a positive future. xx

    Good luck to you! I hope you have as easy of a time of it as I've had. You will totally ROCK the band!

    wooooooop!
    thank you guys all so much for your support
    I doubt I could do this alone and I think all your blogs are what have kept me calm about this whole experience
    Everyone looks at me funny when I say I'm not scared
    I figure I would either suffer complications whilst getting the band or I would get even sicker if I continued gaining 20kg a year

    This is going to be a great week!

Just to clarify

I'm not one to start petty fights on the internet but something is really bugging me about a certain blog post and I feel the need to respond I won't mention the post or the blogger but I just need to clear up a few things I think I've been pretty successful at my weight loss so far but it definitely has NOT been easy So here are a few things I thought I should clarify: - okay so I am 22 years old and I do still live with my family BUT I cook my own food, I do chores and I don't have the luxury of spending all day working out - Just because I don't have kids, doesn't mean I don't have responsibilities - I was going to university full time and am working two jobs...hence I cannot spend every hour of the day focusing on my weight loss. Some days I can work 10 hour days because I'm stupid enough to work double shifts - Okay so I'm 22, but I have never been a "healthy" weight. I was born obese and have always been morbidly obese. I don't kn...

Do you know what grinds my gears?

People who deliberately try to rain on your parade! First of all, sorry about the constant posting. I'm fairly addicted to the internet and I had an assignment due so I was procrastinating all morning and putting it off :P But I really just need to vent, and I'm sure you guys will understand why once you read what happened to me today Well as some of you might know, I work at a medical clinic and the doctors are all so sweet and are constantly telling me how proud they are of me. I enjoy working at the clinic however there is alot of bitchiness between the receptionists and some of them really frustrate me. Last week there was a new receptionist who I found out had lap band and she was such a great help. So I go in to work today and for some reason she was unable to work so there was another lady there. I really can't stand working with this particular receptionist. She is snobby and bitchy and lazy. She is constantly on the phone, never doing work, while I'm running a...

I'm home and feeling fantastic!

Hi everyone I am now officially banded :D I feel great and so glad it's all over Here's a recap of how it went... Yesterday dad took me to the hospital at 8.15am We waited in the day stay ward until about 11.30am when they called me into theatre The surgeon, anaesthetist and nurses were amazing I was terrified of the IV, but it didn't hurt one bit! I got wheeled into theatre at about 12.30 because the surgeon had a bit of a problem with the patient before me Got a bit nervous in the theatre but everyone was so great The anaesthetist and his assistant told me I would feel a cool sensation through my body and a bit of liquid in my mouth.... And then I was awake in recovery! The recovery nurses were wonderful. I woke up pretty much straight away and started chatting to them and smiling thanking them all that it was over The surgeon said everything went as planned and it was an easy procedure so I guess optifast did it's work :P Although I was a bit groggy, I was still able...
