Hi Jenny wow 2009 is going to be your year. I would love to chat, if you have any questions please feel free to contact me Lisa x:smile:

HI my name is Lisa and I had my band fitted on Jult 11th at the Nuffield. Ive lost 17.5kg and feel great. Ive dropped from a size 24 to 18 ( Evans) I would love to chat with anyone who has had a band longer than me in my area x

Hi-I was banded on 11th July 08 & my BMI was 40 prior to my starting the pre band diet. Im feeling a little fed up as Im not loosing as quick as i wanted too , Ive had my first fill but Im still able to eat what I like & more than I would like too. Im going to my first group meeting in the morning so Im hoping they will give me a little hope. I would like to keep in contact, so please let me know how you go on x Mrs lummy from the UK

Hi everyone I need a bit of reassurance. I had my first fill 2 days ago ( 4 weeks post surgery) and since then under my left rids I have some discomfort that feels uncomfortable enough to take a few painkillers. It has gotten worse since I went food shopping this morning- allthe bending I think. Is it normal ? :thumbup:

Hi- Im new to this too ! I had my surgery on Friday and Ive had a lot of pain and discomfort as well- Ive put it down to general post op wind that wants to come up and cant! I usually get it when i go from sitting to standing .i did take some wind ease tablets and it has helped. The spasm pains have felt better today. Keep up the good work , Im looking forward to getting on the scales, I lost 13 lbs on the pre diet, so hope its a little more x

thanks- Im not worried about the food Im going to take slim fast and a blender so will make soups and I will be able to rest - its just that I dont want to put it off anymore as once Id decided I needed to get it done asap

Hi- ive got my date for the 11th July- but Im due to go on holiday (vacation) to Rhodes Greece on the 19th July. My surgeon isnt worried but I am now as most of mt girlfriends are very concerned. My usual travel insurance wont insure me for my band - I need some reassurance thanks Mrs lummy:unsure:

thats funny, I went into webberleys on sat to ask if they had any books and the lady said she had one on order for a someone. Ive ordered 2 from amazon , a Q&A book and a recipe book Im hoping that they are coming tomorrow. Would you like to meet somewhere for a coffee, I work most days but have just gone back to work after been off for several months with a bad back so at the moment im not working full time ?

Hi, thanks for the info about the support group, I will join, but I go away on that date for 2 weeks in Rhodes- and a litt;le apprehensive about what Im going to eat as I will only be 1 week post surgery OMG- but with some thought Im sure I will be OK ( Im not going to die) In reply to your question Im very lucky that Im going private for the op, so its going to be about 2 months from me first contacting the nuffield. I live in Dresden, so not far away. I would love to keep in touch Mrs lummy

Hi - wow 2 others from Stoke- me too. I got my date yest 11th July & Ive seen the dietician today. I feel less frightened now - Im going on holiday 1 week post op but the surgeon is happy and after the dietican explained what I will be able to have I feel better- I would love to keep in touch x
