Hi Heresdeb,

Thks for the above info. Im trying to get a consultation with Shaw Somers. I think he is great after watching him on Fat Doctor. Im already filled to the max yet after losing near 2stone, I put on another 1/2 stone, and now my weight have stop totally. But I suffers from an underactive thyroid so I wonder it thats the reason I cant lose weight despite being banded so tight. So I want someone to do an xray check on me to see my port is still working. I was banded in Belgium. I wont fault them cos the operation went well, but aftercare is abit lacking and dissapointing.

Is anyone having there fills with Shaw Somers and what are his price's now? I did contact him but that was a year ago.

thanks

Mr Shaw Somers works at Portsmouth Hospital, private patients only I think.

He is doing my banding on the 16th at St Richard's in Chichester.

If you google Anne Diamond, there is a youtube type interview with hime and her. It goes on a bit, but you get to see what you think. Have not yet managed to watch all the way through.

omg lol I had to look twice at that then look somemore

I have my first consult with Chris De Bruyne in Edinburgh next month and I too am "Finnsmum"

Good choice of name and hopefully surgeon :smile:

I had my surgery with Chris De Bruyne in Belgium. He comes to the UK several times each month to do fills in London, Edinburgh, Dublin and Bristol from September.

From what I remember he charges £75 for a fill. If you call his secretary I'm sure she can give you more details...

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
