Well you can read about banding till the cows come home but until you've been through it you just never know how it will affect you. I have had a lot of pain and a lot of wind and put together that means more pain! I'm on a liquid diet which consists of:
Supradyn Multivitamin (make sure it's flat as flat or else you will pay for it later)
B'fast: Sustagen 125ml over 15mins then wait half an hour then another 125ml over 15mins
Morn tea: 125ml of juice plus 125ml of runny custard
Lunch: Sustagen same as bfast
Aft Tea: same as morning
Dinner: 125ml of soup plus 125 ml sustagen.
plus water, water, water.
I've weighed myself this morning and have lost 8.2kg since starting Optifast 3 weeks ago....I"m impressed with that.
Glad I'm not going back to work this week - don't think I'd cope. Off for another nap now....
Thanks for your good wishes again. Hey Carol - thanks - love you too xx.

Losing 8.2kgs equals 16 @ 500gm tubs of margarine and a small jar of peanut butter.
Imagine carrying that around in shopping bags! Your arms would fall off and then you would truly need a nap.
I'm so proud of you.
Kathy, congratulations on the 8.2kgs - what a fantastic start! I hope you are as proud of yourself as I am of you. Walking, degas and peppermint tea are your best friends with the gas. Even little ones will help you move it. There is nothing fun about gas though - unless you are an 8 year old boy!
Sustagen - you poor thing - I hated it - thank goodness for Up and Go.
Take it easy for the rest of the week - it is the best thing you can do for yourself.
I'm sorry you hurt from laughing after reading my post, but it really was funny :)
Good on ya 8.2kgs is amazing and you've only just started your new life.
I hope you are on the mend and getting lots of rest.
Hugs and kisses from us.
