Just reporting back on the "I Went On Liquids For 24 Hours In The Hope Of Bringing On More Restriction" experiment.... it didn't work. I suppose it had some effect yesterday - the day I was on liquids as I had trouble drinking another protein shake that night but that might have been a mental block - I was over them lol. Today.. nada.. was able to eat normally, am back to almost scarfing food down if I want.. am hungry ..but still holding fast on just that one cup of food - so at least I have my portions under control if nothing else...... and to top it off - I have lost a measly 100 grams this week. I'm hoping to see a drop tomorrow..... I deserve it. I also hope CC had more luck than I did.. I am yet to hear from her.. (Have your people call my people CC... I await your verdict lol)
And how's my luck. MOTH'S (Man of the House) has his birthday Monday and it co-incides with my fill day. I knew this all along but since it was the middle of the day I thought.. hang it, I've waited so long I'm going in anyway.. so we hadn't really made any plans (apart from me making him a nice dinner that night.. it was just going to be a quiet one.. his choice.) His mother rings today... she's coming up this way to see him for his birthday and plans on taking us out to lunch. Great I thought, I just love eating out.. then oh, bugger. I will be on mushies lol Of all the days.
Wanted to walk today.. but way too hot. Maybe tomorrow. We will see.
Hope you're all keeping well and kicking that band into shape.
Be good, stay safe,
Till next time

Is it possible that you might need MORE than 1 day of liquids to baby the band and get some additional restriction.
ReplyDeleteSomehow: it seems counterintuitive anyway-- like if the band is not being irritated, then you would have it be looser, and what is less irritating than protein shakes???
Hmmm
Good luck and keep trucking Dashie!!
Happy b-day to him. My fiance is turning 30 in just a couple weeks, and I can't decide what to do because of finances mainly. I really have to rack the brain because I want him to have a great 30th b-day.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I hope this fill gets you there--we will be getting filled around the same time (is your day for the fill on the 30th? that's when mine is!).
I want you to VLOG again! You are like a wise sage with a gentle voice damn it!
ReplyDeleteI am sorry you are hungry and can eat whatever you want. I am NOT hungry but still trying to eat whatever I want!
Well that sucks. At least your fill is right around the corner -- mine too. BUT my birthday is also 6 days after my fill....If my last fill is any guide, this is right about the time when it will really be kicking in, so I don't see any nice BDay dinners in my future either!
ReplyDeleteAfter suffering through the liquids, you do deserve a loss! Cmon scale!
What Amy said....do another vlog, the fans are waiting!
ReplyDeletePS - you do deserve it! Hope your scale is kind to you tomorrow :)
Well - you tried that experiment so the rest of us wouldn't have to. :)
ReplyDeleteSorry your restriction is fading - it's so tricky this little band.
My husband's b-day is tomorrow so I'm making him a carrot cake- his favorite. Luckily we can take it to Thanksgiving dinner and it won't be in the house to long.
Take care!!! xxxxLinda
OK Cara - didn't really work for me either. Phooey! I was hoping it would work better for you than for me. I feel a little difference but it may just be me being hopeful. At least we tried! Guess its just another fill that's needed. When can you get another? I'm 2.2cc in a 4cc band.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your experiment. I guess this means I don't need to bother (whew). Hold on, your fill is almost here.
