I think you look absolutely fantastic! Well done,and I wouldnt worry about any minor flaws,I just hope I look as good when Ive lost all my weight!!

Hi there,Im being banded in 7 days time.My pre-op arms are 17 inches. Will keep you updated on any shrinkage!

I have been sticking to my pre-op diet of 3 pints of semi-skimmed milk,2 low fat yoghurts and 1 stock cube a day! Im on day 4,have 7 more days to go.Day 2 was the worst so far,headaches from hell. I am so worried of doing something that would prevent my banding to go ahead,that Im sticking to it 100%!!

Hi there,thankyou for warm welcome. West Midlands is in Birmingham United Kingdom. I am 4 days into pre-op diet which is 3 pints of semi-skimmed milk,2 low fat yoghurts and 1 stock cube a day! Thats it lol Day 2 was the hardest,felt really headachey and moody.I dreamt about eating-then jumped wide awake as I was scared I had eaten! Counting down the days now-7 to go,really excited. My BMI is 44,dieted most of my life with no longterm success. Finally I managed to finance the sugery myself,when referals from my Doctor had got nowhere. I have just typed in lapband on youtube,and watched the surgery process and spent most of this morning in tears! But,Im in no doubt Im doing the right thing,and I am positive I will suceed in the weight loss. This site will be my helping hand,and its great to hear so many positive words.:tt2:

I think Fern looks great-soon she wont need a super-imposed models body attached to her head in the tv adverts-she will have a stunning figure of her own! I think shes great no matter larger or smaller. Well done to her which ever ways shes achieving her weight loss.

I had enough money saved up to buy a new car-I thought a new car wouldnt make me happy,so I did the sensible thing-didnt buy the car and went and spent it on a gastric band op instead....which I have fitted on 29th this month! Cant wait,best choice I have made.Really looking forward to it!

Well done to all you who have already had their bands fitted.Mine is booked for 29th Feb,so I will just make it for the feb banding!
