As you all know, I had my first fill on Wednesday. I was prepared for zero restriction which is lucky, because that's exactly what I have. Nada! To get through the next few weeks I will drink tons of water to quell the hunger and get me through and try, try, try to stick with the one cup rule. I was surprised that Doc said to come back in three weeks as I thought it was going to be six, so thats one good thing, but still I think it's going to be a long few weeks as I pace myself. Kids go on school holidays for two weeks as of the end of school today so that should keep me out of mischief for a bit. Plus it's mid-year school report time, which is always an interest. I have a few things planned for them - trips to Fremantle to wander around and a couple of new places I heard about that we can visit. The sun is shining today so it seems we have moved through the couple of weeks of storms we have been having, though that said, it was a frosty 4 degrees this morning (and I know some will laugh because 4 degrees is probably nothing you live) but for Perth it's actually quite unusual to get so low, even in winter.
Not much else to chat about. Have a quiet day today for a change, so I'm using it to catch up on house stuff.
Till next time
Cara




If I remember rightly it took me 2 or 3 fills to feel restriction so hang in there. Try to remember only to eat until you don't feel hungry any more not till you feel "full".
ReplyDeleteIf you're in Freo, try Gypsy Tapas - small serves of food you can share and order as you go. Tapas is a bandit dream!
Em :)
Thanks Em, on both counts. I like the restriction advice.. I will adhere to that. Also about Freo. I haven't tried tapas yet, so will pay Gypsy Tapas a visit.

Keep up the great work babe. The water sounds like a great idea. They say the more you drink the more you shrink :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I agree with Em - it took me a good 2-3 fills to really get "filled"... and then one un-fill... I seem to be at my sweet spot at 7cc's in a 10 cc band - we'll see how it goes! Some days I can't eat but a quarter cup of food, other days (tonight) I can do a lot more - but all in all, I can feel it working where it is. Keep your chin up!
ReplyDeleteYou can do it Cara! It sucks big balls...but you shall overcome!
