Same-Same but Different

Hi all - I only have time for a quick note here right now but I promise to write more soon.
I am travelling really well. The weight loss went backwards a bit over Christmas but I have got back to my pre-Christams weight now and lost another kilo - a total of 18 kilos down! I have had two fills since being banded (a total of 3 mls so far - will give you all the goss on that later) and am getting some restriction but haven't found anything yet that I absolutely cannot eat. It is a bit of a double sided sword really - not missing anything but I find it hard to stop myself from being naughty either. The portion sizes really vary - one day I can only down half a sushi hand roll for lunch - the next I can polish off a whole medium sized spaghetti dinner - totally weird and a bit frustrating at times, cos I never know until after I have taken the first bite!

My body is changing too - but I seem to be between two sizes, so I am still wearing most of the size 18's I had in my wardrobe pre-banding (but the 20's and 22's are packed up looking for new homes!)

Even though appetite wise and size wise, lots of things are very much the same, the big difference is energy levels - and I am actually excercising - OMG!!! And sort of enjoying it OMG!!!!!!!!!! And I even raced my daughter up the stairs at the cinema the other day - just for fun - without even thinking about is as an effort - AND almost beat her, when she was on the escalator and I was on the stairs -OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who IS this person I am turning into??????

Oh well - you will have to wait for the next instalment to find out - and to hear the adults only edition too ;-)

CYA next time, Dizzy
