with regard to the fills...Julie does do the bookings she gave me a time of 1.30 when i turned up it was just a case of make a queue and who was next it took him 5mins max so they will definitely see you!

snap lol i'm a secret one!!!

they are brilliant and they don't taste nasty i had lemon ones expense but worth it i got the last 2 packs on shelf just encase lol!

Saflan i had everything you describe from the pain to the oxygen to the sickness so no ur not a baby!!!, it does end tho, hope ur feeling better soon

hi guys.. advice please.... i had my first fill yesterday in Bristol 4mls and he said liquids for 2 days i was so hungry last night i couldn't sleep i've eaten an omelette today nmo problem can't feel any difference, i have 2 needle marks where he injected me i kinda think it just went in my stomach not in the port as he struggle to find it?can anyone advise me pls

hi there yes it is suburbs sorry forgot to mention that!!

Taxi is 150 euros from Charderoi airport to campanile as buses don't run at 4.30am however we used charleroitransfer.com and they charge 20 euros each each way and were very reliable it was a small minibus worked out lots cheaper than a taxi. As for the train by the time you have purchased bus tickets from airport to train station then train it works out more expensive than the cost of the transfer and the last train is midnight first train 5am then the bus to the airport so not enough time. However it is easy to find from train station if you choose to use train to get there as u get off train go down stairs and turn right at the bottom of stairs and hotel is on your right

anyone tell me how much fills are in Bristol please? Tropical Lagoon have you been given a price? thanks in advance:tongue2:

a taxi from airport chardeoi is 150 euros however you can use chareio transfers.com and they charge 20 euros each each way i used them on the return leg very good, cheaper than bus too!!

Hi tropicalagoon, glad to hear uit all went well, i'm having my fill sama day and place as u so maybe we will bump into each other do you have the address as julie didnt give it to me!!

just to let you know u shud be ok for work as i went back after 3 days and was ok and even managed to bend!!!

anyone having a fill in Bristol or had one pls?

hi all!!! glad ur all well good luck to those being banded b4 Xmas ur brave!!. I'm having a fill 2nd Jan in Bristol anyone else going on this date? can i get a double fill as i've had to wait 9 weeks for my first fill? any help appreciated

have got to wait until 22nd jan for my first fill so that seems quite late compaired to some people? Reply to Gillian... not too much pain only when i bend to be honest which i presume is quite normal?!!

hi guys!!! i'm nearly 3 weeks banded and i've lost almost 2 stone, clothes are getting big!! wounds have healed nicely. Still can't really tolerate solids much, mash is about my limit but never mind!! all worth it for sure:tongue2:

Good luck !! I'm:tongue2: sure you will be fine and it's definitely worth it in the end remember NO PAIN NO GAIN!! that's what i told myself after the op it got me through it!!

hi every1 just to let you know some positive info... despite the pain i got weighed today and i'm 8 days since banding and i've lost a massive 9kg!!!! WOW:tongue2:

can i just say that the reason i was in so much pain was because i couldn't have pain relief at all as i had a bad reaction to anaesthetic and kept vomiting i have been back at work 2 days now and it's bearable !!!.I'm still suffering with the gas which has eased off 100% since i had it but still feeling it . NO PAIN NO GAIN that's what i kept telling myself!!. i am looking forward to buying new clothes!!. can anyone tell me how to get the tracker up please? Also just a little reminder as noone told any of the people being banded in my hotel you need to take your passport with you to the hospital as they won't allow you to be operated on without it

i Gillian yeah they all apply we travelled on a sunday too if you need any info let me know i'm happy to help, i wish i had had more info on travel arrangements to be honest as i didn't find it that easy!!1

Hi all well i was banded 28/11 and have never known pain like it!!! glad i didn't have to fly home until 2 days later i just couldn't of managed it!! anyway doing good now happy to say. thought i'd post some info re travel etc might be usefull to someone I flew with Ryanair and they go into the south airport you can get the bus from there to brussels midi and then the train to Vivoorde for 13 euros one way or 22 return the tickets can be purchased in the arrivals part of the airport at the newsagents. Then the train leaves the train station from platform P. If you have booked the 715am return flight tho the first bus leaves Brussells midi at 4.30am but there are no trains from Vilvoorde to get you there for 4.30am so a taxi would be req. However we used transfer company www.charleroitransfer.com they charge 20 euro each each way which isn't much extra than the bus but with less hassle and more comfort and i would highly recommend this following operation.

i'm being banded on friday so wish me luck!!!! my pre op diet hasn't gone very well oops!

Hi all well it's 10 days until i'm banded and i can't wait i'm a little nervous though i know it's the best way forward as this forum has kept me thinking that way, i'm going to Brussells south too which is a pain as i didn't realise it was miles away but never mind i have my husband to carry the bags and me if necessary !!!!! anyone else being banded 28th nov?

Well it's a little over 2 weeks until i'm banded and i'm really nervous! in fact i have butterflies writing this!! funny how i've wanted this op for years but now i'm scared!!, this forum has really helped me tho think i'm worried about the travel arrangements more tho to be honest! anyone else being banded on 28th nov?

Still searching for flights though!, anyone else being done on that day would love to hear from anyone Can anyone tell me did they have a [problem taking 3950 euros into the country as i know some places you can take a limited amount of money into the country 7hinking of flying with Ryanair only my flight on sunday is at 7am and wondering if the trains run at that time in the morning?
