Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone

I am going to Chimay in Belgium next Monday to be banded by Dr Mignon and would love to chat to someone who is going at the same time.

Please get in touch.

Love Chelle:nervous

Hi Chelle,

How did your surgery go? I hoped you found someone who was going with you at the same time. I went on my own but the people I was booked in with were great. It was a great service and well worth the journey.

I hope it has gone as well with you. Did you have your last supper?

Hi There

Surgery went fine and I met a couple of really great people there! The last supper was steak and I enjoyed it more than any steak I have ever had!!

Have lost 14.5lbs now and just trying to decide whether or not I will need a fill at 6 weeks.

Take care and keep in touch

Love Chelle xx

That's great to hear Chelle. I didn't have my first fill until Jan, so if you are still feeling good and not eating much then you don't need it. If I remember correctly they do start us off with a 2ml fill.

Big congrats on your weight loss. Did you stay at the B&B in the middle of the country and have the famous steak at the pub?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
