It's been awhile since I blogged. I wanted to first of all thank those of you who commented. Thanks everyone. . . Apparently rosehip oil will help with those stretch marks and scars. I have also heard that bio oil helps but I would imagine that that is a bit more expensive. Actually I am on my second bottle of Palmers' skin flexibility cream. It costs about $10 but with the size of me, it doesn't last long at all. Anyway I will keep everyone updated on what works. I will try them all. Last week I attended the support group again. It went much better this time, and one of the ladies showed us her tummy after loosing 52 kilos. Yes it was flabby but not as bad as I had imagined. She was alittle older than me so I hope that will make a difference.
Let me explain HELLbourne - went there for the long weekend for a wedding. Had a great time, I fit into my little leather jacket again and it feels great going through all my clothes that feel like they are new when in fact they are quite old - would you believe that some of them I have not even ever worn???? anyway getting off track. Hellbourne because I ate and then ate some more.
I have to be honest I ate, drank, got drunk, ate chips, dips and other ips. I fully cheated. I sipped water and coke whilst eating to help it go down more and ultimately to allow me to eat more. Never got sick, never got anything stuck but I have to admit even though I was eating more then I have since lapband, it is still significantly less then before the operation. That is the bottom line - yes you can cheat - but it is always going to be less then before. RESULT - no weight loss at all this week - still 101.5 kilos. To make things worse it has been raining non stop in Sydney and so NO EXERCISE. I think I will have to start swimming because rain or shine the pool is always open.
Back to Sydney and back on track. Since returning to work on Tuesday I have returned to eating about 1 1/2 cups of food and sticking to 3 meals per day and the occassional night snack. I have also gone back on only water and non sugared drinks like tea. So I hope it will show on the scales this week. Thanks for listening guys and keep up the comments.............PLEASE

Hey Lita,
It's me Joanna from California again. First off, I'm so proud of you for losing what you have lost so far!!! Such an inspiration!!! Second, I want to thank you again for blogging your journey and being so honest and open!! My surgery was delayed due to me hurting my back really bad and being off of work for 2 weeks. So instead of it being on June 5th its going to be on August 5th. It killed me to put it off, but August is not too far away. Thanks again and keep the blogs coming!! PS, My husband came into the room when I was reading your blog and he saw your new pics on there and he said "Damm is she cute" Thanks again and take care, Joanna
Joanna that is so kind of you -I hope to be honest as possible including all the gross bits. August 5th - no doubt you have started the count down. Don't worry - you will love it. Others don't understand why we are so anxious and can't wait to do it...but I'm with you...
