Alex, dont worry about the scars they do fade, and when they're healed properly try using Bio Oil, its great for scars and also for stretch marks.< /p>

I've got 10 scars, cos I have been banded twice. Both bands were implanted by Michael Van den Bossche, not in belgium, but in the bupa Southampton.

My first band eroded, very unusual...I loved the band that much that I got it done again, so that should tell you that you have made the right choice.

The girlies here have done so well with their weight losses I am really amazed.

Mines been slow cos i gave up smoking, sorry to say i started again 2 weeks ago, cos I felt the weight wasnt shifting as fast as it could have.

Plus i dont have much will power, a friend stayed for the weekend and she smokes a lot, I couldnt eat could hardly drink, so started the fags again...yeh I know...stupid!!

I wasnt going to pay all that money to have the smoking thing stop me losing.

Anyway chick, you will be home before you know it, dont forget to tell us how you go on.

Alex, Wow that was the quickest booking Ive heard yet. I have been waiting around 8 weeks or more and I am getting done next week. Ive been through a roller coaster of emotions so you will be able to avoid all that. Good luck and post all your experiences on here. j x

Hi alex and welcome, just a note to remind you that when you get back you'll need to rest for a week and you wont feel up to driving for a few days, take a mug with you for in the hotel, look on u tube search miss flump the video will show you what to expect and you can see the size of the cuts, also take some windeeze gels. Dont forget to post on here when you get back.

Hi everyone, I'm leaving for France again tonight, and I'll catch up with you all when I return 6th July.

For those who will be banded when I'm away, I wish you well and a quick recovery.

Love to all Maggs MMM :wink2:

remegel,windeeze,zantac...i also bought arnica tablets(are they for bruising??) can anyone explain when i should start taking them and what they actually do to help please??

I would confirm with someone with medical knowledge about zantac, because a friend of mine had to stop useing it for 3 months before they were allowed the op. Take care.

Timeisnow from what I can gather you check in online upto 24hrs before your flight. I think it asks about bags going into hold and then there is a drop of point at the airport??? J x
