  • Hi everyone,
  • Are there any men on the site? I'm considering this proceedure strongly and would like to get a mans perspective. I like my food and wine and beer and am worried I'll go mad without them.

Well thats the first time a woman has ever apologised to me for not being a man ha ha . things are looking up already woohoo

I have had a look at your weight loss and it looks impresive 66lb right?. Did you go to Belgium to Dr Chris de Brueyne?

I notice that he is one of the cheapest around and am a bit aprehensive about that. I had a consultation with the hospital group in Dublin and just didnt like them.

I think you are meant to get a x ray once a year but I only had my band fitted last christmas time so not had one yet. I guess when you go for a fill they will tell you then if they think you need it,?hazrd there are not many blokes on here i guess its us women who like to chat on forums finding out stuff but hey jion in! its nice to have some men on here.

advice please:

I am booked for an xray and to see dr chris on 11 october, but in total the whole day will cost me £200. I am struggling for money. I have been told by my GP I have a Vitamin deficiency of folic acid and I am on medication for it.

Do you think I am better off going on the 11 October or waiting til January. something tells me i should go but it is just the money problem. I can get the money but I would struggle.

sorry if this sounds complicated, any advice would be great. thanks

Please help? Where have people had their ports fitted? Did he ask where you'd prefer it? I'm worried he'll put it on my right side cause I can't sleep on my left or my back so if really struggle to sleep until its completely healed and then struggle again when I have a fill! I will ask when I get there but I'm just worrying now. I get a lot of back and left hip pain, not just being fussy :)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
