anyone who is interested in aftercare consultations please p m me asap.:thumbup:

hi ma its wella 123 here. i have one littlebit of advice for you. when myself and my friends that i have made since having the band went for our consultation we were only interested in the band. i since found out that because of my eating i would have probably been more suited to the bypass.i would advise you to find this out as with the band you can still get the chocolate and ice cream and other goodies down,you are lucky that you have information we had not got . hope this helps and if you need more info i will help you if i can , all the best in whichever you decide wella 123

hi ma i have my band 15 months and was losing weight really well. i got a port infection last July and had two port replacements. without restriction i lost no weight and actually put about a stone back on but now I'm back on track. i lost a total of three stone between Feb 2007 and august 2007. i know people that have lost 8 st in fifteen months. the band works but you have to work with the band and that's where the GOOD AFTERCARE comes in. if you want a phone number for the new clinic i will give it to you, i know the surgeon who is doing the bands and i know how dedicated he is .

hi ma1977 the surgery is performed in Dublin with all the aftercare in Dublin . the price for the band is 11,000 euro and that includes fills for a year , dietitian , and psychological support for a year. the surgeon is resident in Ireland which is very important, he is also an endocrine consultant very experienced in weight loss solution's clinic is state of the art. the first consultation is free i have the band and paid 10000 euro for it . i am delighted with my band but had a lot of problems with infection which is sorted out now. if i had to do it again i would go for a company that provides aftercare of a high standardi hope this helps you, happy days

hi there there is a company called obesity solutions set up in Dublin, they are offering the banding , bypass, balloon, and gastric sleeve. there price includes one years aftercare to include dietitian and psychological support. they have a residing surgeon who will be permanently residing here.the surgeon is approved by the medical council

hi shiela great to hear from you i am trying to get clean from sugar wheat and flour but only manage to get a few days under my belt will write again tonight when i get home its great to link up with you bye for now wella 123

hi shiela did you get the message i sent you in the last few mins

hi shiela what good news that you will do a food plan. the aim is to cut out sugar wheat and flour from our life. its tough to do but once we get over the first 5 days it gets much easier. how much weight do you need to lose . i have another two stone. i was banded in dublin ireland in feb 2007 and have lost two stone but i am still eating a lot of sweets and ice cream and have no problem getting them down. i followed athe food plan of food addicts annomous 6 years ago and lost weight and felt so good but addiction crept back in to my life and i thought havinthe band fitted would curb my addiction to food but alas it did not. i am off to work now but if you are still interested i will write the suggested food plan out for you and together we can modify it to suit the band. bye for now

anyone there at the moment interested in doing a food plan with me. i was banded 27 th feb 2007 and have a CHRONIC FOOD ADDICTION louise patricia

:eek::smile: faa stands for food addicts anon. following the programme you give up sugar wheat and flour . i thought that the band would let me eat small amounts of these foods but its like drugs or drink once you start to use these foods you cant stop and you put on huge amounts of weight , if you go into kay sheppards website you can learn a lot about this addiction.

hi michee great to hear from you. have you read any of kay sheppards books. i would love to get back on track and wonder could we support each other online as all the groups in ireland have ceased. this is my first day clean from flour and will give up sugar in a few days. i thought having the band fitted would let me eat small amounts of these foods but it hasent worked out as i can eat any amount of biscuits or sweets and ice cream and my weight loss has stopped. i am down two stone and would like to lose two more.i would love to know what you think. bye for now. louise patricia

i have been a faa member up untill i was banded in feb 2007 but have been messing around with sugar wheat and flour since i have been banded. i find it hard to eat the volume of food in the faa food plan, i really want to get back on track with clean food as i feel so well when i do. any suggestions please. irish food addict that knows the the band does not fix the addiction
