  1. Yay im not the only one!!!! I had the same problem, i had three fills and they were so minimal that they did nothing to me. At Xmas i wen to see my surgeon and what he did was fill it right up so that i couldnt even swallow Water, and then he took some out until i felt comfortable. This was just before the hols. By end of Jan i had another one, shouldnt have had that Jan fill. it was way too tight, i have had problems keeping anything down since the end of jan. Im going to hold back for a while before i get another one done. I was also told that the 'optimum' spot was difficult to find and that it took some time which isnt very reassuring when you have just paid a very large amount of money and they dont tell you this before the op.
  2. Morning / Afternoon (depends on where you are geographically located :thumbup: ) I have a band fitted one month ago, I have managed to lose 7 kgs so far which im really really happy with. :laugh: I had my surgery in spain at a private clinic in Marbella on the Costa del Sol. The paying of the surgery hurt far more than the actual key hole cuts in my tummy!
