the holidays, but if a few are happy to come we don't need much

notice and can go whenever.

Hi Ali

Nice to hear from you. I had my 3rd fill this week and I finally have

some restriction. I get quite confused as to what to eat, especially

for breakfast. I was eating porridge with skim milk but Dr is

not keen on that. So lately Im back to a boiled egg with one piece of

wholemeal toast. Im getting bored with my food. I was eating a

sandwich for lunch but again Dr says no, so Im now having

crackerbreads with different toppings.

My main problem has been that I can eat pretty much anything, even

with the 3rd fill. I can still eat bread. I can still eat a fair

amount. I guess I dont have enough restriction yet.

Congrats on your weight loss, you must feel fantastic ! I am thinking

that I will probably have a tummy tuck, eventually.

I would love to come and meet you all at the Outback steakhouse, I

agree that its a great place to go. I cant come on the 1st of Feb as

I will be overseas - I return on the 10th of Feb so maybe after that ?

Thanks for your friendly reply. Ive kept my band a secret so it gets

abit frustrating at times. None of my family even know, except for my

daughter. I didnt tell my 23 year old son and its difficult as he

still lives at home with us. I just didnt want him to think I took

the easy road. He just thinks Im doing weight watchers again.

Looking foreward to meeting you
