Ah! What great to see your reply. Trying to figure it out how to pm you, don't understand this site very well.would love to meet for a coffee, I live in amsterdam noord.

Hi, i'm a sleever, 7 months out. Is anyone here from Amsterdam area that would like to meet for a coffee and chat?

Namaste6 , thank you so much fir the tip. Sounds really good! I will take notes. Cool to know you have same date! I wish you all succes!

Hi Ellie I think is around 6 pounds.. So still a lot to go. You are doing great! 5lbs is very good! I'm basically eating likely around 1000 calories a day ( no carbs ) and increased my daily Water (have to force it as was never my thing..). I'm also drinking gember thee (home made). Very efficiënt! I'm still stress about loosing the weight pre-op. If is not what they established for me they send me Back home.. All the best and best wishes from Amsterdam!

Ellie, how is going? I lost 2,5 Kg already. All the best

Hi, I'm super happy, yesterday I got my date. 4th November! Is a 3 years story behind from initial rejected by local hospital, to "I don't want to do operation, to "I will do private and pay myself" to "ok, I will do the all pre-op path and see fi I get approval". I did! And have now a date! Now, in first appointments, I was told I need to loose 6 kilos before operation. That was long ago. I gained another 2 kilos. So, total, I need to loose 8 Kilos in 6 weeks ( will do also the 2 weeks pre-op only liquids). Any tips out there to loose this weight? And anyone has same date? Thank you!

Yes, it does require. In interviews i was very open regarding how my life was stressfull and how i managed to change things (and me) but i did not mentioned the other attempt Some years ago because was afraid to complicatie my case... Feel bad . Guess only thing to do is be open ... Thank you for wise advise.

Some years ago, I tried to do sleeve with my insurance but psyc from hospital did not recommend it due to emotional eating. Meanwhile did Many changes in my life and feel ready. I started now, with other bariatric center and got green light fir a sleeve! But i must have also letter from my family doctor..i just received her letter e she mentions i was rejected some years ago due to psyc issues... Well, i did not mentioned to new center about it... I'm in absolute panic they will change decision... Puffffffffwhat should i say??!?!do?!?!

How many out there had an issue with food and discuss it openly in interviews? Isn't BED a reason to they reject to operate? Should we be honest about it? N

What you wrote.. Was like reading my story... Incredible ... I 'be in same journey.... I'm here to talk if you want...

this is too of a major operation to trust and allow people who only care about money to be in the middle !!! Making big bucks from this situation is beyond comment .... How can 1st appointment and surgery be in same day?? A lot of this doctors say 0% complication rate, of course! You are sent home asap. Whatever happens after is not their problem. Very bad and this requires serious media investigation
