wannabe slinky 4 Posted March 21, 2011 Hi everyone I went for my fill on fri and it was chris that was doing them not CDB but the other one .He weighed me but when he came to give me my fill he could not find my port he tried four times and i am all bruised again.I have to go to Edinbrough on thursday to get it done by CDB its not very good as i have to take another day off work this could work out to be very expensive.I was so pissed off i have eaten everything in sight i dont have any restriction.I really need to start counting calories tomorrow dont want to undo all my good work. Hi slinks wish i could stop eating i would even consider falling out with alex if i thought that would work id probably eat more Nice to hear from all the girls Fatty patty and blondie nurse Hope everyone is keeping well oh poor you you must be gutted,can you not feel your port yourself,my friend could feel her's as he was having trouble finding her's and she showed him lol,he does have trouble sometimes so your not the first although it dosnt help,and i ate everything in sight before my fills,i know it's a pain in the arse taking time off work but it will be worth it in the end xxxx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jo_jo 3 Posted March 23, 2011 Hello all! Just a quick question, I sent my deposit and flight details over to frederik at the beginning of the month but I haven't heard anything back I sent another email over a week ago just to double check he received it and nothing back again. So i was just wondering if anyone else had any problems getting a conformation email because he normally replies to me within a couple of days Thanks Jo x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sure they have got it and all is well just that they are really busy, I think they may be in need of a little assistance and perhaps didn't realise just how busy they were going to be from the UK end! Saying that there was a lady from Holland there when I had my band done. So he has a wide catchment area. Good luck, when are you booked to go? Take care Claire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scooby Doo 1 Posted March 24, 2011 Hi All Went to see the lovely Dr Chris today and had a small defll of 2mls ready for going to Australia, on the plus side I had lost 3.5 kgs since my last fill in Feb so hopefully wont put it all back on again now SaraP it was lovely to meet you - I hope you managed to get your fill this time and without any complications - remember dont be too disheartened if you have no restriction as some people, me included, needed 3 or 4 before starting to feel a difference. Well doubt I will be back on here before my big trip so good luck to everyone and speak again in 4 weeks when I get back Love Kerry x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMAZED1 0 Posted March 26, 2011 I have 5.5 ml in and definitely feel restriction but have only lost couple of pound since that third fill I think I'm eating the same things and need to change my diet from crackers and philadelphia lite and yogurts to something more substantial cos my body conserving the fat. And need to exercise more. What do you eat at your best restriction? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MummiesBB 5 Posted March 26, 2011 Evening all, Weighed in yesterday and had lost another 1.5 lbs and 3 inches so very happy that the 0.5ml fill I had is doing it's magic. Still only really managing Soup but tying to pack in the Protein with this as much as possible. I have to have a recycle of my clothes as I look a little like a clown as trousers are far too long and very baggy. Had Imi's district show and there were a few people there who did a double take and were quite shocked at what they saw infront of them! So well pleased that it's having this effect. I even managed to ensure someone didn't recognise me at all! What a feat! Booked for another fill at the beginning of May, hopefully with Dr Chris and then I will book for my yearly check for the beginning of August if they are over. Hoping to have reached my target of 101 lbs by my first bandiversary (31st July)! We shall see. So I have lost 76 pounds and I did say I was going to have a treat. We have booked a couple of days over Easter in Mudeford so shall go paddling and crabbing with the children and have a fun time. Well will be back again in the next few days or even next week. Take care and look after yourselves. Claire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
