Hi....Britrish newbie here!!!

Hi everyone...just found this site and although I'm British, hope you don't mind me joining you. My name is Suzanne and I was banded on 9th February 2007. I have no idea what I weighed before as I am just too paranoid to know and will know how much (if anything) I've lost on Tuesday 27th March when I get my post op check. I think I might be due a fill but to be honest, my restriction is still really good so might give it a miss...will be advised by my surgeon. I've made a ticker for my posts (if I remember to use it!) and have just put a target weight on it as I have no other information.

Thanks for letting me join you.

Hi there, I'm a British Bandster as well! I was banded on February 13th and I am having my first fill on Wednesday. I haven't weighed for over a week but last weekend my weight loss stood at 18.5lbs which isn't bad considering I didn't have to do a pre-op diet. I live in the West Country so if you live in or happen to be in the same area you're very welcome to come round for a coffee !!lol!!

Hi! Good to read you! Sadly I am in the West Midlands so too far for coffee.

I don't weigh myself...I have no idea what I was before so it wouldn't tell me anything useful anyway, but will know Tuesday if I've lost any. I MAY tell them not to tell me as I get so paranoid about it...LOL

Good luck with your journey and look forward to comparing notes.

Hi Becky

Thanks for the welcome! You're in Australia? I had planned to be in Queensland next week for a month but postponed my trip so that I could have my surgery, Will now go around the end of the year or early next.#

Thanks again for the welcome.

Love
