    Thanks for positive reply, I know your right and I am having it done but do keep freaking out a bit lol. To be banded in Belgium and 2 years aftercare would have cost £3700, here in the uk it is costing £4995 and 3 years aftercare. Think that's a pretty good price and it's with WLS who seem to have fab reviews and are so nice and helpful when I was enquiring about band. 20 day count down yikes ........

    Pre-Op Doubts: Help!!

    I am due to be banded on sep 11th, when I decided to do it I was so excited I could hardly contain myself but as time is passing I'm having doubts (I keep reading the negative things about the band) I'm scared of not being able to have a wild night out with the girls, I'm scared that it won't work, I'm scared that I am going to waste a hell of a lot of money when will power is free!!!!!!!!

    Hi yes the price included everything, however I have a son who has autism and leaving him for 3 nights is not an option at present, so I have decided to have surgery in uk with WLS. September 11th is the date and if I'm honest I'm a little bit nervous :-/ I was so excited and could hardly wait for the day to come but now I keep thinking of all the things that could go wrong..........I suppose it's normal to have these thoughts. Anyway will defo keep you updated. X

    Hi I have made the decision to have a band. After doing loads and loads of research I have decided to go to Belgium to be banded by Dr Philip Vanden Borre and then have a 2 year aftercare package from WLS (dr Philip Vanden Borre is the surgeon WLS uses so very good reviews). I have a consultation on 16th August and I can't wait!! Would love any feedback on my decision or if anyone else has used same surgeon or WLS would love to hear from you :-)
