Hello hello. As my sister has dutifully reminded me its been a long time since I last blogged. I cant believe its nearly hit the two month mark. Maybe its because weight loss wise I have come to a standstill with a capital S. Or maybe its because I still HATE exercising and haven't done any apart from ride my bike whilst getting the dogs to run beside me which makes me feel super duper unfit because although my dogs are themselves super unfit I am unfitter (if that's even a word).
I met with a lady that I have only just got to know yesterday to talk with her the life as a bander as she is thinking of having one. I could see the hopelessness in her face as she talked about her weight struggles and her hopes of winning the battle once and for all. It reminded me so much of me almost three years ago and how i remember so well what that felt like. I think in years to come we are going to be astounded we had such a barbaric way of helping someone to lose weight because I am sure with time we will develop some magic pill or potion to achieve permanent weight loss but until then I still see this surgery as such a God send to those of us who cannot achieve results any other way.
The band is really tight right now in fact I know its too tight because of what I can and cant fit down and its not doing me any favours as I can only eat liquids most of the time and for some reason I can eat battered fish however take the batter away and I have no chance of keeping even a mouthful down. Dam it is odd. So my diet consists of a lot of flavoured milks and battered fish. I have had a go at catching my dinner and managed to get a couple yesterday but oh my gosh you wouldn't believe how much I have been chewed up by sand flies which I have learnt don't bite you but scratch you then piss in the scratch!! Ah ha hmm mmm thats a pleasant thought isnt it lol. Well all I can say is they must have had really full bladders cos I have huge lumps on me. Nothing seems to kill the itch. So, the best place and cheapest place to get some fish from is Woollies I have decided. By the time you get to the fishing whole. Slap on copious amounts of block and shit to get the sand flies to stay away (obviously that didn't work anyway) and lose boot loads of hooks and tackle some fresh snapper from Woollies seems to be the go.
Until next time take care xx

Hey Di,
Good to see you back.. and love the new blog page. Bummer about the tight band. Hope that band loosens off for you... liquids all the time are no fun.
