Hi there . I am just starting all the process and kind of not sure what the next step. Are you in Ireland too? You did all the pre op tests in the day of the surgery or before? Could you help me and advise me what the step ? Can't wait to do the surgery . How are you feeling at the moment? Recovered?

I would like to know if someone from Ireland will have a surgery in Belgian with Dr Chris.

Hi. How are you ? I am in Ireland and starting the process to go to Belgian to do a Gastric sleeve . Could anyone from Ireland tell me what tests pre op need to be done and if that takes so long and how much would cost ? Any advice will be great . Thank you Juliana

Make me really happy see i have that support..Pitty you will go for this surgery in few days and not time enough to me do it together you if i had some more time i would be so glad to enjoy you in the big day.(well sad for me but i am sure you look forward to do it) .I dont know what is wrong with me but i start eat a lot and get so nervous in the night time i guess i am ready nervous about that surgery.I never had any surgery in my life before i am very scared.Will be little hard be in Belgium with not perfect english and not lot of french too but i know i can do it and i will do it.. Ooh i know exactaly what you talk about people bring diet to you and says you dont need that.. that start happens with me everyday and drive me crazy.. So are you ready for your big day?? what the diet you are in at the moment??? Take care and talk with you soon. Juli

Hi wannabe slinky.. Ohh you make me laugh a lot (again) ..I know exactly what you were saying about hubby says to go out to walk(in irish weather that is more hard) and worse what happens in here is when he catch me looking for food he says i am not hungry, just make me so mad..lol I wish my hubby dont have a tongue the same size of Brazil but he cant stop talk about me decision for everyone he meet, make me mad again.:mad: So my history is quiet dramatic, like a mexican novel but i will find out a way to do it dont matter what the other people think, i am sick to be fat too and dont have energy for nothing start to hide in home because hate people see me in the size i am right now and i get more upset everytiime i go to my doctor(because my back problem) and he just says i need to loose weight. i tried a lot of diets and any of them work to me anymore so i get bored and give up.My doctor gave me a prescrition of Xenical last week for see if that help me lost some weight.but that just make me more poor.. do you know about that medicine? is take out 30% of the fat you eat and is disgusting when you go to bathroom.:smile2: and isnt really a good medicine for me because i am not a kind of person each a lot of fat.. I move to Ireland now about 3 years and i was 12 stones and now i am 16 stones so found 4 stones in the last 3 years and i am 5fts 9 .and i dont have kids yet and have a back problem who is killing me with lot of pain.So i need get that weight off me. when you will make your surgery? in June right?? Take care!!!Juliana

Hi Geri thank you very much for the msg.. I was so silly and didnt think about that before (change into five hundred euro)thanks for the adivise.. I am little scared to go by my own with lot of money so was thinking if i have that sorted out i would go without be scary. About go buy myself i am thinking if i didnt find anyone to go with me i will be one more night in the hotel (i know i will be crazy to come back home)But maybe will be better wait one day more in the hotel in there so i can rest more.I dont know yet so scare to go alone to tell the truth but if i havent another choice i will do it.:mad: Thanks for your suport.. you are very kind.:thumbup: Good lucky for you and all the best. (if you dont understand my english please tell me i will try to explain in another way)

Hi Julie Thank you very much for your message.. that site is amazing i wouldnt keep my mind on it if i didnt have found that site.. Really amazing.. Well i tried everything and he still with the same mind and worse now he just start talk about it for every friend he have and his family too and no one agree with me..So my life is miserable in here :thumbup: with all this people look for me like i am so kind of freeky person.. :mad: Maybe i need to change my husband?? :sad: I will find a way and i will do it ,just need to find out some more easy way to go to Belgium on my own.. We use to say in my country(Brasil) "If we dont have a dog we hunt with a cat" So if he isnt with me i will do that myself.Maybe will be much more hard but nothing i can do. Thanks for your suport.. take care and good luck with your new life.. (sorry about my english,hope you can understand)

Hi Wannabe slinky... Lol i laugh a lot with your message.. well i talk with him a lot and had made all the kind of tricks and he really dont change his mind.. He dont stop me to do it, but he says he will not be by my side and will not move one finger to help me in that..Is that a reason i didnt have put a the day of the surgery yet. i guess will be so hard to me have this procedure done and not any suport of anyone, my family isnt in here i am brasilian and dont have anyone in Ireland.His Brother live in Belgium so i was very pleased to find a doctor in Belgium.So would be much more easy to have place to stay in Belgium after the surgery and little more suport in the country but his brother is like him,he says that is a stupid idea :thumbup:..So i guess irish man have very strange way to understand what" we" women think and feel about weight. Now i am off of work for 1 year and 7 months because a serious back problem and get much more weight everyday.So i am in a stage i need to do something, because i am so fat and with a lot of pain in my back because my weight and not able to do lot of exercise too..I am in trouble HUN??:mad: But i will find a way to do that myself, even if that isnt the most easy way.. I just know i need to it and that site really help me a lot..(Sorry about my english, in case you dont understand something please ask me and i will try to explain in another way ok???) Take care and all the best..

Hi Gerri very happy for you.I Hope i will be one banders very soon as well. Dont have the day yet still look for someone to go to Belgium with me..(my hubby dont agree with the idea of me doing that surgery) so i will need to look for someone else to go with me.One think just make me worry about is have all that money with me in the day of the operation. Maybe i can pay in another way?? Like before i am going to Belgium?Someone in here knows about another way to pay and not just have all that money with me in Belgium?? Thanks and all the best for everyone in here.
