Those who have the TickerFactory thingo, how do you update those? ive been trying and it wont let me

Yeah I work in an online centre so the same as a call centre but it is emails and live chat!

I dont understand those ticker things either

Aaah so it must be a helpdesk role hehehe.

I found on my first day back i got a bit sore, i think its because of the different movements sitting at a desk and reaching etc. But i was fine.

hello everyone :)
im 5 days into my fast and im feeling great! its not nearly as hard as i was dreading. ive been dreaming about chocolate, hot chips and breads but i actually think that its helped me behave while im awake lol

a few people close to me have questioned my decision to have the surgery. telling me that i dont need to lose weight (i currently weigh 118kg) and that im beautiful now. its great to know that people special in my life see me that way. but a few times ive had to take a moment to remind myself and explain to them that im doing this for me, and not to impress anyone

Hi Kitty, welcome!

I told everyone about my intentions getting the band. No one said I shouldn't - because, damn, I was 135.6kg! I needed to lose weight. At 111.6kg now and people ask how much more I want to lose, and I say around another 30kgs more and they all say "But then there'll be nothing left of you!" until I tell them that would still make me 80kgs!

Where are you having your surgery done?

MsJess82 · 06-15-2009, 02:21 AM

Its amazing isnt it how people tell you "youre perfect how you are etc" but its not about them its about you.

I have my high school reunion in November and i was a bit fatter then, i can not wait to see their faces when im alot slimmer, i just hope they are all not wafer thin.

I really think this is the best decision i have made and i cant believe i didnt do it sooner, but its done now and im loving it. I get to start mushies on Thursday im so excited for scrambled eggs!!!

My mum keeps saying that I am not even fat and its just my body shape! and gets mad When I say mum, Talk to my doctor! I am morbidly obese! I know she is just being nice but it is that attitude that helps me to fail.

Realistically even health wise! it is not ok to be this way, not even going into appearance!

We have all made great descitions for ourselves

Hey there

I work in an office, sitting around pretty much all day, I had my surgery on the Thursday and was back to work on the Monday.
I was a little uncomfy on the first day but after that I was fine, now a month in I cant even feel the band anymore, its great

Tarob · 06-16-2009, 06:47 AM

Wow Trish that was so quick! that is good to know I dont wanna push it at work :)

I have a very silly questions by clear soup, do they mean soup that you can see through like stock like stuff or non chunky soup?

MsJess82 · 06-16-2009, 07:03 AM

Yeah so broth based soups - just remember what they give you in hospital haha. Its like boiled chicken stock hehehe.

Lucky my surgeon said anything i can get down a straw, so ive been having lots of different types of soup.

Tarob · 06-20-2009, 03:53 AM

:( I though so!

MsJess82 · 06-21-2009, 10:15 PM

So im back from my trip to Melbourne! I had an awesome time! I want to go back!

On the flight i was fine, nothing out of the ordinary, but when i landed and was on the bus getting taken to the city i felt really tight in the stomach, it was awful i just breathed and after about 10 mins it was gone. That being said when i flew back to Adelaide i didnt have that after landing so im not too sure what it was.

I ate omg! I had scrambled eggs for Breakfast at the Hotel which were amazing! Lunch i tried to buy as mushy as i could get, usually i would pick at my partners chips. Then dinner was spaghetti but i kept ordering ones with no meat (annoying) but maybe that it a good thing.

I did eat a few Krispy Kreme donuts, they were fine, i chewed them so much! I didnt have any problems with eating in Melbourne which was great.

So this week im going to get into the mushy thing and see what happens, i dont think ive lost anything this week due to my eating chips and donuts but meh i had an awesome time for the 3 days i was there!

hi everyone

my surgery is tomorrow! feeling a little nervous about the op but really looking forward to my new start!

i just jumped on the scales to see if ive lost weight during my fast, but im not sure if i trust my scales now coz its 7kg since i weighed myself 2 weeks ago! weird

i spent the day with my partner on sun, she said she wanted to "say goodbye" to my curves. made me feel like i was taking something away from her. I assured her i'll still have curves at 80kg i wont be a stick figure. And she understands why i want to do this.

hope everyone is going well! i'll be back after my surgery :)

x kitty

MsJess82 · 06-23-2009, 06:14 AM

Ooh Kitty - congrats! What an amazing adventure for you and your partner!

Let us know how you go! Im sure it will be great. 7kg is pretty good for Pre-Op and its normal to lose that so well done thats 7kg gone forever!

kitty_cat · 06-23-2009, 08:12 AM

thanx jess :) im feeling really good about this. kinda wish the op was over and done with but this time tomorrow it will be

Leah28 · 06-23-2009, 08:12 AM

Good luck Kitty!

7kgs is great for pre-surgery loss. I lost 7.2kgs before surgery. It was a great kickstart.

Looking forward to hearing how it all went!
