i looked at the miss flumps link as well know its brillant isn't it..well done for booking its a great idea just go for it. The thing i like is they say 90 per cent of people get to there ideal weight in a year... just think of that in a year you will be slim:smile:

Thanks Julie!!

That really makes us pre-bandsters feel better!

Do frederick/Dr Chris give you a list of what you can eat afterwards? I'm wondering what to stock my kitchen with before I go.

Hi

Am feeling a bit anxious as I transferred the deposit on 19th via HSBC and the bank said that it will get to Belgium in 2 working days, but Frederik hasn't confirmed that he has rcvd the deposit and hasn't responded to my last 2 emails....should i be worried???

Should I try calling him instead? Please advice as I am getting worried now. My date was booked for 12th of August, I have already booked eurostar but no confirmation from Frederik is making me anxious.

My youngest daughter informed me this week that she is getting banded by Dr Chris in October. I have told her to join this board for the amazing support and information.

Hi,

I have been reading through all the pages for over a week now and have just plucked up th courage to post.

I am booked with Dr Chris for the 4th August, so just over a week to go now.

All the information on here has been really helpful, like what to take, what to eat before and the fact that nearly everyone thinks that they will be the only one it won't work for lol.

So I just wanted to really say a big thatnks to everyone who has taken the time to post advice.

Just one question really, I am going to Belgium on my own, as other half can't get the time off work, I have a pretty high pain threashold and am planning to drive to airport and leave the car there to drive back home after, does anyone think this will be a problem?

Hi natalie there should be no problems driving home after you arrive back i did so with no real pain.A little tugging when turning round to check your blind spot apart from that it was fine.

Don't worry.. He doesn't confirm receiving your deposit auomatically - I had to pester him a bit too! I'm sure he'll get back to you soon, he's probably really busy... I expect vanessa feltz being banded in belgium has increased their bookings at the moment!

I have booked with CDB for surgery on the 21st September and i cannot wait. Can anyone give me advice on how best to forward the deposit money please?

Frederik sent their banking details but it looks odd and bears no resemblance to english banking details.

Anyone else going to be there on the 21st September?

I'm dead excited now. x

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
