*Runs in smiling* Guess what!




Yeh-huh! That's right amigos! 4 kilos ... 8.8lbs (for my international buddies!) in 2 weeks! (It seems muuuuch longer than that though, believe me!).

I'm so excited! And relieved ... I know they say that the first 6 weeks is all about your body healing itself and any weight loss during this period (prior to your first band fill) is a bonus but I KNOW I would've been devastated had I not lost an ounce.

I am now back in what some bandsters call "One-derland" (a weight starting with 100 if you happen to be weighing yourself using pounds) and almost back into the 80's (kgs) which is where I normally reside. I haven't been over 89 kgs since I was studying at university some 9 years ago ... I think I took the whole idea of "Last suppers" prior to my op a little too literal! I ate waaaaay too much in the months between deciding and having surgery and now have to do some bloody hard work to shave off those gluttonous and unnecessary kilos. Sigh.
