You can arrange direct through the surgeon, which works out cheaper as includes hotel and taxis

regards garry

Hi Garry, OMG! That is fabulous news, well done!!! You must be feeling amazing. I am trying to icture what you must now look like. I really hope that our group gets to mee up again one day as it will be great to see the change in everyone.

I have a much slower loss than you, but it is coming off slowly but surely.

What are you eating now? are you still on Protein Shakes only?

I have just had my 3rd fill on Thursday taking me to 6 mils and I am hoping to hit the 3st mark at the end of this week. I really wanna speed my loss up so that we can get our IVF referral before crimbo so any looking for tips please lovely bandsters!

Also I have noticed that I am losing more hair now when I wash/brush it. What Vitamins do you guys take?

Thanks & Take care

I went with bridget at europesurgery and it was just as cheap. i don't think it matters who you book though. The main thing is that chris is a good surgeon and you are getting it at a cheap price:smile2:

hello everyone just joined today! i am due to be banded at end of august. I am a bit worried about the fills as i life near plymouth so i think it may be a long way to go. but i have read some good things about chris and i think it might be wort the travel. I have also booked with bridget at professional beauty really happy with the package and how friendly she is.

does anyone know if getting the band filled hurts? is it just an injection:smile:if so i don't surpose its that band

[happyflower 1]

hello, you say your going at the end of august! thats when i am going too, maybe we will meet!

my sister has already had the band fitted and has the fills . i went with her it does not hurt, its just an injection but i don't think its a painful injection just an injection.

I am looking forward to my new life ...can't wait to have it done

[happyflower 1]

yes i have heard the injections arn't too bad. lets face it its all worth it, to lose the weight there is no way that i could do this on my own. I have been trying to years to lose weight and its just not coming off. been on loads of diets you name them i been there!

in some ways the injections are a good thing i chance to meet the surgeon again and get an update on the diet. someone told me they had managed to lose 2 stone in the first 2 months ...thats what i want to do just start to shift the weight.

[janesunny 0]

i know what you mean about injections, i find blood tests the worst! i guess once you have started havng the injections you are already over the worst bit. you have had the band fitted and on your way. i don't suppose you have to have that many of them, its just a matter of griting your teeth and getting on with it. There is no way i can do this without the band its just too hard, i been trying for years

Yuk, just experienced a horrific bout of productive burping - not pleasant. Had my fill done 4 days ago and this morning thought I would try a little scrambled egg - not a good idea - after 3/4 mouthfuls I was in pain and over the last 30 minutes have been bringing it back up

What causes it, I chewed properly and ate really slowly and it was soft foods, not having egg again for a while. Also its not just the food that comes back up its accompanied by a thick gloopy saliva - again why is that?

Anyone know how long this will last - gonna stick to liquids again today to give my stomach a rest again just in case.

how you doing that sounds horriable...I guess the first few days will be the worest and then you will start to feel better. it must settle down over the next few weeks.

hi freckles what colour are the stocking you have to wear after op,lol im just thinking i will have to wear long trouser's to cover them and well done on your weight your not far off target hun:wink2:

[Freckles 0]

Ahh thanx Slinky, you are a sweetheart, but I've still got to lose another 2 stone to be at a comfy weight.

My stockings were white hun, but I was banded in the Bupa Southampton, so not sure about Dr Chris's.

Someone will confirm for you I'm sure. You could always buy your own if you're worried, cos they're only flight socks.
