Guest guest Posted November 15, 2006 Report Posted November 15, 2006 Hi Ladies I havent posted for some time but thats because I've been very disappointed ?? with this Ruddy band ..... This is probably something some of you ladies might have noticed but Ive just realised......my band is MUCH tighter when the weather is cooler.....and for months now my kids ( 6 & 9 )have been watching me choke on my dinner virtually every night ( & that REALLY worries me....I wonder what long term damage I may be causing them while they watch their mother choke & slap her chest in obvious pain almost every night )....seems dinner is a real No-no with this band.....I just can't seem to map it out.....Everytime I think I've got the hang of it?........Bang....there it goes again...off in another direction & Gawd only knows where or how it'll end up.....since last week I've actually been vomitting up a liquid slop when it gets really badly stuck.Some days it's usually that old enemy,WHITE BREAD - but it may as well be air on other days - again no rhyme or reason...anyway...the food gets stuck...I get up....do a few laps up & down the hall ..in & out of the kitchen & lean over the sink in anticipation....sometimes a sip of warm water will eventually dislodge it & send it down on its merry way....other times & only as a last ditch effort I desperatley reach for a sip of coke to work it's magic which then acts as a volcanic trigger...... I do not enjoy life with this band At all......I resent it....its intrusuion on my enjoyment of life...not to mention its intrusion on my bank balance & on my what use to be a Scar-less body is most offensive to me.....havent lost weight in 14 weeks ....so have just commissioned a personal trainer to " help " me get back on the straight & " Narrow " .....fingers crossed I wont just give up & go back to Dr God ( that nicname is Soooo Funny ) & get him to just yank it all out & be done with it. By the way...What exactly is Ketosis & is it a good thing? Some time ago Petra got all excited & nearly cracked a smile - when she weighed me & mentioned that I was in Ketosis... Thanks for letting me rant ladies....Its been far too long but I'm glad Im back Sue. Quote
Guest guest Posted November 15, 2006 Report Posted November 15, 2006 Sue are you chewing your food properly and eating slowly. If you are finding it difficult to eat of a night why don't you reverse your meal times and have your dinner at lunch and your lunch at dinner. Many a night have I had cruskits for dinner. You may need to talk to a dietician. We have all had problems with our bands and get very frustrated with it but hang in there mate everything will work out for you.
