  1. Hi yellosisi, how did you hear about Dr. Chris??? i heard lots of good things about him. I have tentative date on the 10 Dec here in Dubai where I live but might travel to Brussel to have it done earlier as I have started pre op diet on my own few days ago. Are you nerveous? I am still kind of confused little bit and thinking of the sleeve.... I need to lose 70 pounds as well.
  2. Hi guys, do you feel the ring around the stomach after operation? do you feel or sense something is different? thanks
  3. Thanks Cindy. I feel more relaxed after reading more and more successful stories like yours. Amazing 154 lb. cool
  4. Hi Matt. What is Realize Band. Sorry I am new to all this. I was totally lost between the sleeve and the band. I have tentative surgery date on 10th of Dec to have the Band.
  5. Are you in UK or US? who is your doctor. I am so scared of the whole thing. What if the body dont like a foreign body. Good luck in your journey.
  6. Hi there, I have been doing lots of researches since Aug on the Band and Sleeve. I have seen three excellent doctors where I live in Dubai and each one gave me a different opinion. ohhhhh. my mind was set on the sleeve till I met one of the doctors who convinced me to have the lap. Today I had a second consultation with Dr. Al Taie and he again convinced me to have the sleeve. I am so confused. I have 35 killos to lose (BMI 35) and the main reason is IVF treatment. I am pulling my hair these days and decision has to be taken soon. I have been following the stories on both the vertical sleeve talk and the band talk, there are lots of successful stories on both. I am going crazy here and do not want to regret any decision as I am self pay. Any suggestions based on your experience............so afraid of the idea of my stomach partially removed and feeling more comfortable that lap is reversible
  7. Thank you all. One more question please, do you feel the lapband around the stomahc? I mean do you feel like there is an object inside you?

    Hi guys, What motivated you to have the lap over the sleeve? I have tentative date set for 10 Dec to have the band but still confused and lost. Doctor still think I will do better with the Sleeve and that put me down.
  10. I am just worried that removing part of the stomach might have some complications in the far future and the thought of part of my getting cut is freaking me out. I just need to get over that feeling I guess. Thanks guys
