hello everyone, hope everyone is well. its been a while since I have been on here.its been over a year since my last fill. have booked my wedding for March 2014 so the motivation is back for me to lose weight again!! love reading everyone stories of success! !

Hello Eveyone Not been on this for while......Got banded in May 08 and slowly i have been losing weight was great at the start but now it has slowed down. Got my 1st fill in May 09 and they only put in 3ml....when i wanted 5ml......€120 or 3ml if saline liquid i must be mad!!! Getting my 2nd fill 06/01/11 in Dublin. I am going to push for 5mls this time! Hopefully i will get it.....My Friend is getting Married in July and i want a lovely dress for it!! Take care Mandy

Hello Everyone, Hope u are all having a lovely christmas break, Just lookin for a little advice really, I want to get a fill, i am in the Glasgow area.....Just lookin for location and price info...... x x

Well i got banded on the 12th May had to delay from the 21st April due to work........its been 5 days and and i now 14lbs lighter. Dont get me wrong its not been an easy 5 days...... after the op there was alot of pain and trapped gas....that hurt like hell.........its not getting a bit easier to get out of bed. i am struggling to drink the 2L of water a day, dont even think i have had 2L of water since i came back on Thursday. Going to London on Wednesday to visit a friend for a week......so we will see how that goes..... still after the discomfort and pain. i am still glad i had the op done......will just have to learn to live with the band!! x
