Hi Everyone

I had my band fitted in Birmingham on the 7th Feb 07

I have been receiving my aftercare at Manchester and have found that there has been no group support as they promised prior to the surgery.

I have seen the dietician twice and really found her little help.

I have not had a fill as yet and feel that I have no restriction. I have been on a conference today and have eaten as I did previously without exception. I am really struggling to revert to my old eating habits and feel thta all the great work that I have achieved in the past coulpe of months as the scales are slowly going back up.

Has anyone else had the same experience with the Hospital Group or is it just me that feels like they have had my money and now they are not interested?

Thinking that I may go on the Cambridge diet as a form of damage limitation prior to me getting my fill.

Hi Lgvic,

The burping does go away eventually, unless I eat to fast, (I have to agree it is not very lady like).

If I have learnt one thing since my band and that is patience (didnt have a lot before) I wanted everything to happen yesterday but 5 fills and 9.75 ml of fill, at last I have a comprehension of what the band is designed to do. Have lost 4 lb in 5 days after my last fill
