Can't-Weight

Well done gary keep up the good work, Its amazing 45min run without stopping I cant do 5mins without being puffed out

Hi it cost me 3650 euro's for the op so made a little saving lol,,, with our forever changing exchange rate at the moment..... I guess if I could of afforded the u.k I would have had the surgery here.... but im quite confident in going abroad there's loads on here who have used the surgeon im going with.. anyway all the best all with your upcomming dates afterwards is when we really learn to eat again lol....

Thanks gary, for your reply, I will start watching what I eat from tommorow :rolleyes2: has anyone got a diet sheet they followed????? or would it be ok to follow the slimming world book suggestions.?

Thanks.

Hello All, Ive been reading these forums now for quite a while and after reading of you guys experiances with Dr Cdb Ive decided to go with him, Ive finally got all my money together after saving/working so hard over the last few months....hopefully it will be worth it! Btw my Im a bloke of 35 6ft height ( lol ) weighing it at around 21 stone; been a yoyo diet'er for years you name it Ive done it but just cant seem to get under the 20st mark... I sent a email to fredrich I think thats his name,,, and he has provisionally booked me in on that inclusive package for the 7th april im starting to get butterflys already... But I just keep reminding myself I really need to do this for my health, in my family diabetes/ Blood pressure is a issue and I dont want to go down that route...Ive got a daughter of 3yo and I wanna live long enough too see her grow up if possible. Anyway thanks peeps for your encouraging posts what I'd like to ask you guys is how did you pay your deposit to fredrich was it by bank transfer??? I have loads more questions also but I wont bore you too much at once lol.. Tony.
