Oooooo woooppyy I just love green furry burgers, I'm also partial to e.coli bangers, our local butcher is so famous for them he is currently on the tele for killing off infant school kids around here. I'm taking my daughter for her first scan this weekend, so please can you post them to me second class will be fine, it'll just add to the flavour.

Hi Everyone, I've been banded now and feeling a bit of a fraud, I've a slight bit of discomfort in the chest region, but otherwise, I'm doing great! Lost 12lbs pre-op and now another 9lbs since 17th March (4days). Coping with the injections alright, was a bit worried at first, but I think, I was making a fuss in my head about nothing!!!

Hope all the others that got banded on the same day and in March so far are feeling well.

I couldn't think of a better place to have my lapband op in, the hospital was immaculate and the staff were lovely. Dr Chris & Frederick were great, very reassuring and answered any worries I had about the op!!

Good luck to all, my new slimmer life begins now, yippeee!!!

Hi Big Bones! Glad to hear that everything went well for you! I was banded a few days before you on Friday 13th! I am doing well too, still suffering with the gas though! Let us know how you get on.

The baby is still vomiting so is on nil by mouth expect for the rehydration drink poor thing so poor hubby is looking after both of us!

I found this link and it made me laugh! That's where I've been going wrong! This is why you're fat.

Sorry don't think it's come out as a proper link. :smile:

I'm glad you got home okay, it sounds like you're doing okay. Sorry I missed you guys at the airport, I went to find the self serve check-in and couldn't find you again. The xray juice did take effect whilst at the airport! The journey past in a haze, I'm surprised I managed to get home in one piece I felt so light headed and dizzy!

I am suffering really badly with the gas in my shoulder/back and brest area, Chris said it only lasts 3 days, but some have said it lasted up to 10 days! Say hi to Jewy for me.

Hello Ladies and Gents,

Glad to hear you are all doing so well!!

I'm looking to start my pre op diet in a few weeks

You guys got any hints or tips for me?

Hi Fatpants, Sorry, we couldn't find you afterwards as well. I had no trouble with the barium, the doctor did say, I was drinking less and less, lol! I've even had to take something to get me moving, as I haven't been since the hotel on wednesday!! I'm glad your doing well, apart from the gas! When I have my Soup or a drink, I get a slight pain in my chest? Not sure, if I'm eating too much or too quick?

Hi every1,

Did not get chance to come on here last night and flipping ect, there is loads that I have missed.

So chuffed re all the girls that have come home after being banded, all your weight losses are fanctastic. Glad that infills went well for the rest of you peeps.

Every1 sounds like they are all doing fine.

I keep hearing about the Pre Op Diet, could some of you guys give me some advise about this and anything that I should or should not be eating or drinking, any info will be a great help. Thanks :smile:

Fatpants, So glad to see that you are back and feeling not 2 bad. When you are feeling a little better, you will have to fill us in on your op, step by step, what was the worse part, what was the best, what was the best advise that was given to you.

Glad to hear your ok and making a good recovery

Hi bigbones im glad you have come out the other end and your weight loss so far is fab. Fatpants i still get pain in my shoulder from wind and im 9 wks post op.. im not sure if its what im eating or if im eating to quick. Hi mand your preop diet is low fat 2 weeks before surgery, you dont need to worry about the calories as such.. they say low fat as this will shrink your liver and make the op easier for dr chris x

hi all

everyone is very qiet this weekend hope your all well. As you know i got my first fill on thursday however i have done the 2 days Soup thing and low and behold, NAE restriciton however i guessed that would be the case as it was my first. I have just had toast so i would say that is confirmed, no restriction. Cannot get an appointment for april as its full and as he had problems finding port due to hematoma he does not think its a good idea that i go to freferick or his other assistant until its clear to see where the port is, so it look like i am going to go to belgium for it so he can use the unltrasound, he mentioned to me that the first one is free so i will mail him and find out. I have also heard that you can do a fill and come back the next day and get a little more does anyone know if this is true.

Gx
