Anyone know of Dr De Bruyne Chris

Hey all you guys, well done to all the losers on the weight loss, a lot of you sound like your doing it on will power alone, so i'm impressed, you should be proud! I dont know if i'm going to manage with a liquid diet, but maybe the band will give me that "inner power!".

Is anyone on their low fat pre op diet yet , that's going out in a few weeks? I am looking to start mine next week, but am trying to cut down now to get myself ready for it!

I also wanted to ask ( close your ears boys) Has anyone had the "time of the month" when they got their op? I think im going to have mine, and honestly, Im thinking about changing the date, as it's always really bad, and im thinking i might get in a state while Im there, and I always feel really tired with it, any advice greatly appreciated

THe WLS package for 6 months, I was kind of relying on for fills, as it's the only way i'm going to be able to afford them, Did anyone get an answet yet, if they're going to offer the 6 month deal, I feel they are greedy too, don't they realise people are struggling to get the money together as it is for the OP then the fill money on top makes it even harder!!!

Over and Out! LOL:wub:

Hi money, It was my time of the mth when I went for my op, they were fine when i tried to explaine it to the nurses. On the sat nite, they wanted me to go to the too using a bed pan, I expalined and they just let me walk to the loo, everything was fine, as for the op I kept my knickers on. I hope that this helps. Dont swap dates, you will be fine. mandy

Cheers Flirty,

Just phoned WLS and Colleen said that you can only get your first fill with them from 6 weeks and the £120 initial assessment and fill are included in the 6 month package price. Mandyfielding, the phone number for Colleen is 08007879029, i phoned her this morning and she rang me back within half an hour x

Tee bird, thanks for the info, I will ring 2moz, see you next thurs, Mandy

Hi guys another question for you. Do you hear anything from frederic or CDB before you leave for Belgium. Its just Ive been thinking about the pre op diet and stuff and I was wondering if they email you with any instructions about it. Also about the taxi when arriving in Belgium. If youve bought the package does the driver wait for you at airport with your name on a sign or What? I think pre op nerves are starting to kick in and nothings going to plan at the moment. J x

homecare ,we didnt take this package but from what others have said, they have the same worries about whether things go to plan..there doesnt seem to be much communication i know..but everyone on here has said that even tho, it all runs smoothly, and they have had no problems..im sure it will all go fine! x

Hey homecare, i went through Bridget for the op booking and uopn email confirmation, there were attachments included detailing a very brief description of the pre-op diet. I didn't hear from Frederick or Dr DB, from what Frederick said to us in Belgium, they're both extremely busy and take ages to read emails x

Hi homecare try not too worry too much im sure everything will run smoothly for you.. the pre op diet is just low fat so dont worry too much about the calories, it is the fat content, as this will shrink your liver and make the op easier for dr chris. x

homecare you dont normaly hear from fred or dr chris before the op .I had to send fred my flight details so the taxi driver new when your arriving.He will be holding up a sign with the ecfs logo on it.And they expect you to follow a low fat diet for two weeks before the op.

[wishfull 1]

Hi penny it was the time of the month for me and the morning of the op i we were told too take our under wear off.. i explained too the nurse about it being the time of the month and then told i could keep them on, thank god. I dont have a easy time of it either but i really wouldnt change your app.. you never know if your worried about it it might make you late x

Hi ladies,

Just wondering if anyone has heard if Wls have abandoned their no 6 month packages to newbies?? I'm hoping to use them post my banding on the 23rd June. I also seem to have developed an unnatural craving for fatty foods in anticipation of the op I'm praying that I can get started in a low fat plan from today and have dug out my old ww books to try to use them as a reference.

i sara, i will ask them this when i go for my fill with them on tuesday. i will let it be known people are upset about this. altho wendy is the fill nurse, she may be able to give some feedback on our comments to the management at WLS. dunno if it will make any difference, but i can try for nothing. dont let this put anyone off WLS though as its still good value when you add up all the fills and the advice, newsletters, 24hour help and the expertise they offer with their team.
