Remeber who you did the surgery for - YOU and to have a better life t enjoy your babies and family, not the strangers. They will soon ohh and ahh over how much you lose. We make a lifestyle choice and it's one that a lot of people had admired in my case as I took control - not of overeating as that was never the issue but of ensuring that I don't end up a diabetic with heart problems and not enjoying life.

Have a super day and take no notice of the numpties!:thumbup:

Everyday you will feel much better and soon be bouncing!

Thank you sweetie for all the advice and words of encouragement! xxx

Managed to put up my ticker Hurrah! x

Hi everyone just wanted to ask a couple of questions, if you wouldn't mind giving me some advice anyone. Im away to leave on monday to be banded on tuesday, and was just wondering whether it's just Clear Liquids you can have for the first couple of weeks, as i was going to take sachets for milk shakes etc. Also wondered if anyone else booked through europesurgery? As i have, and not heard anything from them about consultation before hand or anything like that. Just worried that something's going to go wrong now. Any advice would be much appreciated!!! xx

Hello

Hope all goes well next week, you are in good hands and they will look after you.

Probably easier to take some cuppa Soups with you and a mug although the hotel leant me a dish to make some up in and I hardly ate any of it. The next morning I had a yoghurt as I needed something and a cup of green tea.

If you haven't heard from Europesurgery then give them a call as you don't want to get there and find out you aren't on the list. Not sure if this is the same company that others have mentioned on this thread and the problems they have had??????

As I said you are in good hands and will be well looked after.

Take care and be reassured by those of usthat have been in the last few months and post on here.

Take care

hi everyone, thats me back, banded and looking forward to a slim future. Everyone is Belgium was brilliant - couldn't fault them at all. Dr Chris and Frederik were lovely. I was banded on Friday and when Dr Chris came to see me on Saturday, he said that today I would be wondering what I'd done to myself but would feel a bit better evey day. He was right! I still feel slightly like I have been kicked in the stomach by a donkey, but it's getting better. When I came out of hospital, I looked 6 months pregnant my stomach was so blown up and hard, but it goes down. I was on my own, no one else was being banded on friday so I had the room to myself, but to be honest, I was too sleepy to chat anyway. I'm glad I did it and am really positive about the future. Good luck to all those going over in the next couple of weeks, it's painful, but only for a short time and they give you painkillers when

you leave the hspital. A tip Frederick gave me was to dissolve a painkiller and then sip it over a long period - which seemed to help. Thanks for all the pre op advise I got prior to last week, I went over feeling really informed and there were no surprises - even the barium meal was covered!!

      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.
