Hi chickie, well done on that weight loss. I hope in two years time i will have lost alot of my weight. I'm just wondering whats it going to be like after the surgery like, ive read some bad things on here, like it doesnt work for everyone and u have to work hard with the band. Where are u? Im in Ireland. How much was your tummy tuck if you dont mind me asking? What has been people's reaction to ur weighloss? did u lose slowly/fastly? also how many stone did u lose before people started noticing? god sooo sorry about all the questions. i hope u dont mind. And yes u freaking rock, u go girl. :rockon: lipgloss :cheer2:

Thanks so much for the replys guys. I was just so worried that i was gonna go for the consultation and ask the surgeon and he'd say sorry love but...ooo so excited!! Manu thanks Lipgloss :cheer2:

hi tlambright1986, Im 21 also. Im not banded yet, going for my consultation next week. I am hoping i will be banded within a few months. Keep in touch. Lipgloss :cheer2:

Hi ja9va, i had a long chat with himself last night. He is just scared that something will go wrong and i'l end up worse than when i started. I have my consultation next friday, im really excited. He would come with me but has to work, im usually laid back about stuff and he's also worried that i wont ask them everything about the procedure etc. I told him id make a list and not to worry about me, ive had major surgery 3times!! Im sorry I am not able to help you out with your food problem! Can anyone tell me how long you usually have to wait for the op after the consultation a week? month? 2/3months? lipgloss :cheer2:

<p>haha lol i know how u feel. Im not going to tell anyone at all for the exact same reasons you mentioned. I got ur pm, and sent one back to u. I dont know why it wasnt working earlier. talk soon.</p>

ja9va, how are you getting on with your band? I get the same from himself that im fine the way im am but like eh hello..im not im soo overweight!! Keep in touch. Allure, i know what you mean about clothes god ive had some times trying to find nice clothes. I got a lovely pair a jeans last weekend and i bought 2pairs in different colours. I will love it when im able to shop in penneys!! &Dini, tanx so much for the reply, im ringing this afternoon to book my consultation. Thats it. done. I havent told himself, will tell him dis evening when home from work nd that i cant cancel it. Its great to hear from someone around the same age.My little girl is 2 and a half. will be 3 at christmas. I havent actually weighed myself in a long time, but the last time i was like 19stone. I always wear sorta baggy clothes that hide my weight very well. I must buy a decent weighing scales. Id say that is what is up with ur fella afraid that u'll turn into a supermodel and leave him!! I reckon thats what himself thinks aswell or that other guys will start looking at me..but in the end it you not im with not them..ah men!! Can you explain what the pm thing is? do i have to activate it or something? I only joined the site to day so am still working on how to use it. I clicked ur name to see could i send you a message but nothing came up, but if i click another users name the following comes up send email/pm/view public profile etc. Sorry if Ive totally confused u now. Oh and Im in Co.Westmeath. My partner used to live in dublin. Talk to u soon. And i just realised ur getting banded next week, u must be really excited now. Lipgloss :cheer2:

Hi all, I was about to post a new thread on introductions and saw this one from Ireland so said I'd post here. I hope ye dont mind if i join? Ive read through all the posts, congrats to te lot of yis. I've been thinking about getting the lap band for about 3months now and think that I have made my mind up that I want to have it done. Ive tryed many diets in the past, wasted a lot of money too. I did manage to lose nearly 2stone last year myself but then went on holidays and started gaining again and then quit! I am only 21, I am sahm and feel like I am wasting my life away. My partner says that he will support me but I get the feeling he is worried about me having surgery etc. And what if i have it done pay 10k and it doesnt work for me? I dont have any medical problems yet (that i know of). I have had gallstones in the past and had my gallbladder removed at 20! I just feel so depressed about my weight right now, I know its my own fault for getting this big, i have no barrier when it comes to food. And since I left college, had my daughter my weight has just crept up on me. Plus im at home all day and just nibble. Im not bad during the day, its just the evening and nighttime. I dont want my daughter to grow up like me, i dont want to be the fat mummy leaving/collecting her at school. Its so good that i can write all this here, my parter is not heavey at all. he is like 10stone and sometimes I think he doesnt actually get what im going through/feeling. I gushed my heart out to him several months ago and he said he would help, we'd change etc but nothing has happened. He's out there getting on with his life, he has a great job which he loves. I know he loves me and our daughter. He is the same age as me. We own our own home,both have nice cars etc. But deep down I am not happy, is it wrong that I want to do this? I can just feel myself dropping more and more into a state of depression. Sorry about the long post and rant if you like!! Hope to talk to some of ye soon. Lipgloss :cheer2:
