Congratulations Pearce and Laila, welcome to the forum.

I'm sure you'll find a friend on here Laila, and Pearce, tell your wifey to get ready with the liquidiser lol

You wouldnt be human if you werent worried, we've all been the same way, but you'll find it wasnt worth the worry, will be over before you know it, and well worth the wait.

I wont say good luck cos you wont need it.

Hi everyone!

I'm a newbie to this site and this is my first post. This site had been really helpful when I was making the decision of whether to go for it or not!

I'm being 'done' by CDB on 5th August but I'm having to go alone as my boyf can't get the time off work.

I just wondered if anyone was being done on the same day?

You poor thing Sammy, I used to have that every night, before I had the de-fill last October, its a nightmare, coughing and choking with a mouthful of gunge. Sorry to be explicit, but its best you would-be bandsters know what to expect if you're a bit over-filled. This is the reason they only give small fills, for your band to get adjusted, gradually.

I have only had the reflux once since the last fill Sammy. I dont eat after about 8pm sometimes earlier, and that seems to stop it.

Have a try of that hunny.

Bo you have done so well, you deserve the break .....enjoy your weekend of freedom lol, before you're back on track. lol

Gosh this thread moves fast - I can't keep up!

Well after another night sleeping propped up on the sofa I decided to get a defill. Luckily I managed to gewt one in Cardiff on Monday. I had 0.5ml out - so basically the last 2 fills. Monday night was bliss - a proper nights sleep! I did get a bit of reflux last night but nowhere near as bad. I did forget to take my tablet though so hopefully tonight will be better.

I still seem to have restriction but not great. I'm really gonna have to work at it. I really want to lose at least another 2 stone and would really like to lose 4 stone so still a long way to go..........................grrr :thumbup:

To everyone being banded soon - you'll be fine. It's the start of the new you!

Welcome!!

You are in the right place for support and advise. I don't think I could've done it without the support of the guys on here x:thumbup:

Thank you Freckles, im sure i won't but it'll just be an anxious wait. Glad to see so much positive feedback on here though. Seem's to be a good little community on here. I'll keep you posted. x

Thanks Sammy!

I've invested in a nice light suitcase that I can take into the cabin, so I hope I'll be ok flying home alone!

I've stocked up on Calpol Melts and Strepsils... just need to get some Windeze now!

Counting down the days, can't wait to have my band!

Welcome Emsey, you'll be fine on the flight, if the seat belt is tight, tell the flight attendant that you have had surgery on your tummy and ask for an extension, thats what I did when I flew from Southampton. They were lovely about it.

Oh dear Sammy, what a pain isnt it, trying to get to the sweet spot.

I cant eat much and sometimes get a little acid in my throat but nothing major. scales is not moving though.

I am eating Special K atm, and its going down a treat.

I wanted to lose more weight for the christening next week, but no luck.

hi MD75 i am having mine on the 13th with Dr De Bruyne Chris!! where r u having yours?

[laila160 0]

How much is Dr CDB charging at the moment? And what is the package you have all had?

I have made enquiries with Frederik and I am waiting to hear back. I am thinking of doing this to nip my weight gain in the bud so i don't drop dead from heart disease like other females in my family. Also, my mum's diagnosis of ovarian cancer was delayed by months due to her weight.

I don't want to take any chances so I want to get a grip on my weight. 14st may not sound a lot but its all relative and I know 14st is not where I am likely to end up. I have generations of female fatties before me.

hi there!

i booked through proffesional beauty they charged 4150 euro but just for the band i had to booked my own hotel at 160 euro for 3 nights for 2 people and i am going to pay my own taxi! £218 for return with eurostar for two people. so i think its best to contact federick directly.

[janesunny 0]

hello, i think it just depends what offers are one when you book. I booked with professional beauty and got the hotel and taxi paid. it probably depends how busy they are. why don't you contact bridget and ask?

[happyflower 1]

i agree mine inculded everything as well with professional beauty.hotel etc ..i think its depends what offers are around. anyway its still the cheapest band i could find on the internet. i think also the best surgeon, he has more experience than the others.

you are getting me thinking on what to take with me!! maybe something like windeze is a good idea...i have heard you get loads of trapped wind afterwards. does anyone know are you meant to take stuff like that to help afterwards

[anitahug 0]

woohoo !!! what a feeling...just got into a size 12, the 14 fitted beautifully but I thought no go for the 12 can zip it up, but would need to loose another 1/2st to look gd. Just had to share that with u.

Haven't been on here in several months a big welcome to all the new bandsters... b patient...really patient that was my problem, I wanted an instant fix and thought the band was the answer but lost only 3 to 4 lbs in the first few months then the fills kicked in have now lost 3st (it's taken a year to get this far, but definitely worth the wait) want another 14-21 lb's off. When I meet people I haven't seen in months the look on their face is sheer shock - I got called a skinny tart last week and I loved it, my confidence is growing rapidly which reflects on my appearance, personality and everything. I hated being overweight I was so miserable inwardly.

Lovely to see Gary and Freckles looking brill :-)

It was a difficult and scary decision to make and go through and the journey hasn't always been an easy one..... but I am SOOOOOO glad I did it !!!

Best wishes to u all xxx
