Hi, I am sooo glad I found this post. I was really close to booking surgery through Tullia Law but I had to find flights first and she was constantly phoning me saying I had to be quick or the price would go up so I thought I would google her and came accross this site. It is safe to say I have sent her on her way and I am in the process of getting things organised with Frederick Still very nervous about it all though :/ xxx

Hi everyone

So its getting sooner for my band, a week on Tuesday, I was nervous at first but after reading stories on this site I am now ready. I am actually looking forward to it. I think for me its not about losing weight quickly, 2lbs a week would be fantastic its about keeping it off and no more yo yo dieting! Im actually fed up having portions the size of my husbands Im just so greedy!!! anyway have cut down on crap last fews days, still having couple of biscuits though . Can I take cup of Soups with me? I hate milk so couldnt bear any shakes. xx :puke:

Hi

I took cup a soups with me(I don't like milk either) but to be honest, I didn't feel much like eating after the op. If you take them, remember and take a mug with you cos the hotel only have small paper cups in the room. Everyone over there is lovely. I am now 4 weeks post op and it feels so long ago now. You will adjust really quickly to what you can and can't eat.

Good luck!

Ok I'm scale hopping - and it's driving me crazy.

I'm now 19 days post op. I lost 7lbs in the first 14 days. I'm now looking at perhaps having lost no more than 0.5-1lb in week 3.

I can tell I have no restriction. I'm eating about 800-1100 cals a day.

I understand everyone is different. I'm just intrigued what peoples weight loss was in the first month post op, and secondly how different was it after their first fill?

Thanks guys x

Thank you :puke: I have been booked in for 17th December eek no christmas dinner for me then huh lol! I finish up for xmas holiday on the 16th and dont go back til 10th January so thought that would be the best time for it! I will have to ask for more xmas prezzies to compensate the food! Does anyone know which airport in Brussels I should be flying to? I was looking at ryan air but they dont go to the international airport and was just wondering because of the taxi trips being in the package deal would I have to fly to a specific airport? x

You will adjust really quickly to what you can and can't eat.

Lol, if only it were that easy, because with each fill it changes, and sometimes with each day it changes too.

Just had to tell you that guys.

Hi Everyone.

Not been here for a couple of weeks been sunning myself in egypt! Thanks for the previous comments to my messages.

Anyway, my op is booked for 2 weeks tomorrow. I'm really nervous, not about the op itself but the hard work afterwards. Its great to hear of all of your success stories, it really does give you motivation.

Anyway, any tips in the next few weeks would be very useful.

Hi Lemma

Don't panic everyone goes through this. I am now 7 months post op and have lost only 2.5 stone, nowhere near what I thought I would lose. I am going for fill no 4 this month as I have still got very little restriction, managed a chinese last night.....

If you are calorie counting be careful not to starve yourself or your weight loss will stop altogether as body goes into starvation mode. Aim for 1200 cals min per day. Ask your GP to see a dietician as that might help too.

I think we all expect super fast weight loss and it just doesn't happen with the band - you have to work at it, the band is just a tool to help. The bypass and Sleeve are completely different and you lose weight very very quickly which personally I dont think is good for you.

Keep going and your weight loss will come in its own time
