    hello to all!

    Hi Liz, Sounds like a lovely place you are going to, and its good that your kids will be busy having a nice time, how old are they? I have a 13 month old boy (Ryan) he is now starting to stand without holding onto anything, I think it wont be long before he starts to walk! I feel fine, surgery scars are healing well, I am still trying to get used to how little I am able to eat! I am due to have my fill on 14th April and I know once that happens will have to eat even less, I am losing weight slowly I have lost nearly 6kg which is not bad considering 21 days since surgery, I have about 22kg to lose to get to a healthy BMI of 25. My brother-in-law who also had surgery on the same day as me has lost more around 8kg, each person is different. It won't be long now before your big day! Best wishes, Liz

    Hi Elizabeth, Wow! What a coincidence! I had mine done through the national obesity surgery centre in London. obesitysurgerycentre.com thats the website if you want to know more. Cost was £7700. My email is ehaghirian@yahoo.co.uk would be great to hear how you get on and if you need to ask me anything about it feel free to do so! Best of luck, Liz

    hello to all!

    Im Elizabeth 30 years old, I am a new member who had lapband fitted on 2/16/09 I live in the UK and decided to have this surgery after a long battle with my weight, I have already lost quite a bit and its only week 2! I am eating very little but still getting used to the idea that I will never be able to over-eat! I would love to hear from other new members as we can support one another through our long journey to our target weight. Best of luck to you all. Elizabeth
  10. Hi Debbie, thanks for yours words of encouragement, at the moment because I have a long way to go to get to my target weight Im finding it hard and feel very hungry, here we too (in UK) we are instructed to only have soft food first 2 weeks and 1st band saline fill in 6-8 weeks after op. I am dreading it as I know it will be even harder as will only be on a liquid diet after fill! I wish you all the best and I know you will look great in time for Summer! Take care, Elizabeth x

  11. Hi elizabeth, ty for your nice comment on my blog, I hope you are feeling a little better, stick with it its so worth it & ignore anyone on here telling you its ok to cheat or anything.. its not, thats why weve had the band done... I have followed everything my doc is telling me, it might be 6 weeks before i have my first fill, some have it 2 weeks after the op, but over here you have to be on a liquid diet for 4 weeks (soups & milk) then a soft food diet for 2 weeks then normal foods for 2 weeks then a fill... i am so happy with myself as i never in my wildest dreams thought i would lose as much as i have in just over 6 weeks..I know it will slow down at some stage i will up my fitness & look forward to being slimmer for summer
