Hi Debz i live just about 6 miles up the M5 from you i was banded just 6 days ago in Belgium,the band is a great tool to assist you in losing weight, di have a hard time with the pre op diet but i keep telling myself food can never taste as sweet as being slim<br /> Mike
-
Fingers and everything else crossed here for you,it will be here before you know it

Congrats to you and i wish for fast recovery

Hey Marcy all the support you could need is here on this forum from people who have gone through the same things you will encounter on the journy to a better ,fitter, more healthy life

Sades perfectly natural to have concerns about this,i have many such concerns but after 4 days post op i look back and it realy was nothing.Just think of the befits of this and that should motivate you<br /> Mike

Hi Nurse4 i too am from the Uk and banded 4 days ago in Belgium, i can never understand the prices for this surgery in the Uk.Dont worry you will be fine and soon losing weight. Mike
-
Foxy let me know your dates and we can keep in touch later to monitor each others progress and dont worry you will be fine

Hi Foxytri take some clear soups if you are staying in hotel post op,lip balm,dont try to pick up cases after surgey .Take some slippers for walking around the ward or hospital,and walk as much as you can as it does help get rid of the gas.I have recoverd well and feel quite good now just sipping water and clear liquids i do not feel hungry at all at the moment
-
I was banded 4 days ago and went through all the fears beforehand,i was walking around the hospital after 2 days and now have little pain or discomfort. It is worth it for your heath and happiness Mike
-
September 26th here and feeling good
-
Hi Joanne most of the gas has gone now and i feel better every passing day Mike
-
Hi Janer55 good you are doing well,i am fine now but had a complication due to doctors in the UK failing to spot a problem luckily for me the people in Belgium spotted it so spent time in ICU but i feel ok now Mike
-
Kath your weight loss must be a healthy one,if you are too tight and can not eat then that can not be healthy.I know we try to balance the speed of loss against the trauma of not being able to eat but please keep an eye on your general health and from that decide on an unfill or not
-
I have not gone through the expence ,trouble and pain of getting the band just to try to cheat it.I had a bad time in surgery due to a problem not spotted my my doctors in the UK pror to sugery,spent 3 nights in ICU and a very unpleasent experiance it was,no way am i going to try to cheat now
