Anyone know of Dr De Bruyne Chris

Hi Jiggy

Frederick came to see me at the hotel the day I was discharged to see if I was okay and to give me an information pack on aftercare. It is not written in stone that you have to stay another night but they say it is adviseable. You mentioned before that you will be travelling alone, you may find it difficult with carrying luggage. Everyone is different with regard to how much pain they are in afterwards. The women I shared a room with at the hospital felt awful after they were discharged and went straight to bed, there is no way they could have jumped on a plane and gone home, but like I said everyone is different.

If you take out the 4000 Euro package it wont be any more expensive to stay the extra night, it just means you will be away from your family for 1 extra night.

Hi Clarygrundy

No I havent seen my GP since having the op. You do the injections yourself for 5 days after the op. They show you at the hospital how to do it. Dont worry its very easy and it doesnt hurt.

Hi Naomi

I guess I'll see you both in the hospital as I left it too late to get into the Campanile. I'm in the hotel Trol in the centre of Brussels. Like you the pre op diet is not really going to plan. Have cut down on fat but only lost 3lb in past week or so. Looking forward to the other side.

HI Naomi and Nick!! i leave on Sunday!! yikes! i keep having nightmares too Naomi! but i'm sure that's natural ?? as for the pre-op both of you - well i have been terrible this last few days! i did really well last week but this week i have slipped up with a few sneaky Snacks and i even had fish and chips on Sunday!! Aghhhhhhhh! i have somehow managed to lose 8lb and dispite my pitfalls i haven't put any back on again. still it's not the weight loss he is interested in is it? just have to hope my liver isn't in too bad a condition!

Thats a pity about the campanile Nick. how are you going to get back to your hotel after surgery? Don't forget to bring loose clothes for afterwards cos aparently your stomach is very swollen afterwards with the gas!

Don't worry Naomi i am sure we will find each other! besides we will probably meet in the hospital! i get discharged at 1pm the day you are admitted!

Good luck to all of us!!!!!!! and a safe journey to you both!

Well done!! you must have been very good! i hope i do as well as you have. i leave for Brussels on Sunday! get butterflies just thinking about it!!

Frederiks gonna see me early in the morning at the hotel on Monday so that means i can bring my parents sightseeing for the day! looking forward to it cos i might not feel upto it after the op! still i am going with hubby again at end of October for my fill , it will be more of a break then !!

Keep doing what you're doing!! it's obviously working! Are you glad that you went ahead with the banding? and would you do it again?

Angie xx

[EnglishRose 1]

Hi Angie

Yes getting banded was the best decision I have ever made. No regrets at all. I wish I had done it years ago! and yes would definately do it again without a second thought.

Being banded has completely changed my life. I dont think about food as much as I used to. I enjoy my food more because I eat slower but I dont crave for more after having a small portion which is quite amazing for me as I have been a compulsive eater for years.

Try not to worry about the op, you will be in great hands. Dr Chris and his team are very professional and will put you at ease. You will be home before you know it and will be able to watch the weight drop off.

Best of luck for your op.
