Hi came across this idea which I will be giving a go, as I am very bad at getting my Water in, If you place 8 or more coloured rubber bands on wrists, and take off after drinking a cup of water, It helps stay hydrated, Do you have any more ideas any one ?

Hi in the UK they inform you to carry a card around with type of band also the amount it is fill, just in case you need to have operation of any kind, or indeed have any problems and need to go to AE. I think everyone has the right to know what is going in their body.he has no right to withhold this information.

I am having another fill, at present I have a 7 ml, weight was doing great 2lb a week, now I have slowed up, but do sometimes i make bad food choices, whilst i am out, i have had a few slimming moments, but nothing to bad, I have learnt to eat every 4 hrs and try not to leave any longer, other wise I shove it in and then I am in big trouble. But I suppose I am scared I will never get to my soft spot, my band is only a 10 mil, I just would like to get to my goal weight and reach my soft spot. and just to maintain it without to many more fills, any advise guys

I also was told I did not need to go on pre op diet, prior to surgery, but I put myself on it, about 3 days before, yr surgeon knows best, but it didn't hurt me, good luck x

Hiya it is a worry the unexpected, but I can assure you, it will be fine, I laid down my port is quite out their, the clean area, withdraw to see how much is in band, also checking no leeks extra, then they refill, it done in seconds, then a wipe, I have a hot then cold drink I. Waiting area, if no probs I leave, sometimes I have a little bruse, painless just a little scatch, don't worry you will be fine x -
