To those who check in to see whats happening my apologies In the last two months we have had Emma wedding, another son on the edge of getting divorced, Andy (hubby) at the academy training to be a prison officer. Anyway its all been full on.
I visited another surgeon this week as my original weight loss surgeon said he didn't need to see me anymore and I felt like I was just floating out in a big ocean. So, off I went to see Dr kierith in Perth. He was fantastic. Dr Hamdorf had kept a running telly of my fills and I know without a doubt that I had 9.5mls in the band (the band is 11mls) but when Dr Kierith took all the fill out he only got 6mls????? I don't know whats going on there. I then had a wack of a fill put in (buggered if I know how much was put in) and all the way home I had to be sick cos I couldnt even keep my swallow down. So home I got then back to Perth for a bit to be taken out. Its all a bit of hit and miss but right now even though the band is tight I can still eat and drink be in very little amounts! Most exciting of it all though was Dr Kierith said he will give me a tummy tuck about June when I get to my personal goal. Very excited about that. A friend of mine at work has just had one and I am keen to see how Dr Kierith did with hers. I will pre warn you that when the time comes I am going to put up some before and after photos so hopefully you will get a wee warning before so you can decide if you want to see. Im not sure why you would but some people following this journey are doing the band themselves so they are keen on all the gory details! Work is great. Would love to be able to put up some stories but that's got to be a no go zone. Andy is in the can from the first of April which I am really looking forward to. Hope you are well. Happy 50th Birthday to my big sister in NZ. Wish I was there. xx
