pinkshaz 1 Posted August 14, 2010 Hi again - less than 4 weeks now till my op and I'm following the chat very closely. If you have a fill and it's too much and you need some Fluid removed, where do you go? I guess you can't always wait till Dr Chris and Frederik are in UK?

mmm 0 Posted August 14, 2010 (edited) Hi again - less than 4 weeks now till my op and I'm following the chat very closely. If you have a fill and it's too much and you need some Fluid removed, where do you go? I guess you can't always wait till Dr Chris and Frederik are in UK? Most bupa/spire hospitals can do it, as can weight loss surgery group, in absolute emergencies your A&E department will use the emergency telephone number given to you by Dr Chris, and he has been know to talk another doctor through the proceedure. There used to be a clinic every weekend in London (not sure if its still open) to get emergency defills so that you dont need to wait a full month. The best thing is to drink at least 2 cups of Water after each fill to make sure you can at least drink fluids. I had'nt heard previously that Dr Chris has doctors and nurses in arears around the uk to do emergency defills. Edited August 14, 2010 by mmm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karob 0 Posted August 16, 2010 Weight loss is almost non-existent for last few weeks, even after 3rd fill - WHY?? I am gonna start the slim fast diet tomorrow cos sick fed up of this bloody band not working Kerry Hi Kerry I found that the less you eat, the less likely you are to lose weight. I was afraid to eat and it took me 4 weeks to lose 4 lb. The last week, however, I have eaten alot more and managed to lose 4lb in a week. I didn't go for my 3rd fill, and I am glad that I didn't. I have 5ml in and have enough restriction. I had found it hard to eat and I think that was the main problem in not losing the weight. Only time will tell. I am off on hols in september, so wont even be able to get another fill untill November. On a positive note, since 10th May I have lost 44lb and 28 inches overall. I couldn't believe it when I measured myself. Trouble is most of it has gone off my bottom half and not alot off my top. Dont let it get you down. K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
