Hi Nettie,have just read through your journey from the start…….Haven’t you done well!!lovely to see your first faltering steps to the success you have become……gives me confidence on the journey ahead….thank you Nettie xxx
Thank you so much, I don’t actually know where the time has gone it’s just flown by and although I was always able
to blag my confidence in the past it’s so nice now to have natural confidence.
Your journey ahead will be just as successful I’m sure, stick to the rules and you will be rewarded, ask lots of questions and never suffer in silence. It always surprises me when I read stories about “failed” gastric bands, so often it’s the patients shovelling naughty slider foods down past their bands rather than the band failing that causes the weight loss to cease, of course there are always the odd case of band malfunction or leaking ports (I do hope our lovely John is back to his old self)
Keep motivated, stay focused and be kind to yourself, a little treat once a week has kept me on the straight and narrow and gives me something to look forward to at the weekend, I have a bottle of wine and a small chocolate bar over Saturday and Sunday and my weight loss has never suffered because during the week I stick to the rules.
Enjoy every minute of your journey and celebrate evry success, good luck
Nettie xx
