Hi Wishfull,not sure whats going on with the band at the mo im going on hols the end of Aug flying to New York its a sevan half hour flight i told Fred he said that he thought i was at my sweet spot now because some of the fill came back he said not to get a fill in Aug because i should have really good restriction and with the flight so long the band can tighten a bit im really confused as what to do started eatting today had two weetibix with milk went down fine do you think i should be able to have this much at this stage,im just very frustrated at the mo its very hard your trying to be so good will power is getting very thin on the ground all tho i hav'nt had any of the wrong food it doe'snt stop you craving it,this is why i was reallying on this fill, sorry for the rant when you get this far with fills apart from the expense you really need the band to start working the way it suppose to be sorry again just feeling a bit down cant help thinking of Flirty who had a lot of fills and still Know restriction sorry to land this on the newbies just being honest we are all differant, so guy's should i go for another fill in Aug so near to my Hols if i dont it will be two months with very little restriction:confused:

Wishfull did you have a fill after that one,if you had how much did you get in did the same thing happen:smile:

Hi Freckles, i dont Know weather or not to email Fred i Know Flirty did'nt get anywhere

Hi Flirty,congrat's on booking your surgery we be all rooting for you,cant wait to hear how you get on you be like a modle you deserve it,just a little ? how many fills have you had so far do you have any restriction at the mo, did you get anywhere with Fred :smile:

Hi Shoes,

Was just watching a vid on You Tube with Miss Flump and her video #10 with Fred she mentioned she had the same as you. The Fluid was coming back out. Maybe worth a look?

Hi Topping, thanks just had a look at that vid i have 6 1/2 mil in mine Mis Flump has 7 in hers, i think the next fill should do it for me all tho today i feel i have restriction not as much as mis Flump but my dinner took me ages to eat this evening had cream crackers with laughing cow cheese and pickle onions it went down fine i think im not to far away fingers crossed, did you go to Dublin for your consultation on Thurs have you booked your date x

Hi shoes,

Date all booked for 12th August in Brussels. Flying out of Dublin on 11th. Met lovely Fred and paid my deposit!! Also met some lovely people who have been banded and couldn't recommend them enough which is good to hear. Another lady there has lost 6 stone in a year and looks amazing.

Is it normal to be eating all around me at the moment though?

Subconsciously i know I won't be able to do it forever i suppose.

Hi Topping im so glad for you, i eat for Ireland when i booked my op looking back i was always an emotional eater i was so excited about my new journey if i was upset excited mad happy i had to eat ive had to learn to deal with that but when you see the weight coming off it makes you stronger dont get me wrong i still have my off days but i soon get over them the band has been the best decission i have ever made for myself weighed myself this morning ive lost 4 stone 5 lbs so far the only thing that can be frustrating is getting the fills at the right level, but i know i would not have lost this weight without the band, so enjoy your last few weeks i had loads of last suppers but i got down to business on the pre op diet its very importent it helps makes your liver smaller so the op is a bit easyer for the surgeon, it wont be long for you topping bet you cant wait x:thumbup:

Hey shoes poor u having a bad time with fill but i do understand well iv had 9or10 fills now and NO restriction so iv gave up on fills and not getting any more cos i think they seem to be a waste of time for me i can eat any thing and any amounts but thank god it changed my mentality or i never would of lost weight but it defo didnt do what i thought it would i never feel full after a tea plate of food i have a massive plate full and go back for more and then snack after but i think iv learned the trick of moderation if that makes sense im down another 5lb this week... As for fred and the fills i got no where i kept telling him i had no restriction and could eat meat bread etc and all i was getting is it must be working ur losing weight that really pissed me off and the money i spent on fills could of bought me a new wardrobe lol my surgeon never mentioned me having a unfill before the op so i didnt ask lol but i read in cosmetic forum some are told to get a unfill and others arnt so i hope i dont need one.... But i hope u get sorted with ur fills but i think if u can keep head strong its better than any fill

Hi Flirty god i did'ent realize you had that many fills that so frustrating for you dont blame you not having any more does'nt seem fair did fred not suggest getting your band checked out it could be faulty,you've done so well with out the help from the band far play to you dont know if i could get as far with out help from the band but your right not to let it beat you , i know what you mean about fred he said the same thing to me that i was lossing weight i tried to explain i was doing it on my own will power he dismissed it ,all tho i think i have got some restriction so that is giving me hope trying to be head strong, im so happy for you your an inspiration to us all Flirty cant wait to hear how you get on with your op wont be long know say your so excited x:smile::tongue_smilie:

Hi all 11 days post op and the hunger pangs have just kicked in today. I had 2 boiled eggs mashed in a cup for Breakfast. Small amount of cous cous for lunch and was starving by dinner and had a large bowl of mashed potato, swede, carrot for tea. Is this the right amount Im consuming. I feel really full after the mashed veg but it was a large amount. Jx

Oh POO I've only lost 1lb during my holidays, I'm just so shocked how little I need to eat to loose any weight, I'm feeling very sorry for myself today.

I missed my June fill by being away, and wont be able to get a July fill because the date available in this area is only a few days before I go to a wedding, and that would be so inconvient. So I might have to look else where and find someone who can do a fill for me this week, but its probably going to be much more expensive, I'll report back when I can find someone to do it for me.

I'm so hungry all the time, isnt it strange how the restriction just stops working from one day to the next.

Help need advice!!!!!:tongue_smilie::scared2::thumbdown::scared2::thumbdown::scared2::laugh::scared2::scared2::scared2::scared2:

Hi Rosetah this is normal each day goes by you will start to get your appetite back its as if you have know affects from your band because its empty and the swelling in your stomach has gone down, dont be temped to eat to soon your band could slip Dr Chris told me of a ladie that he had to fly to Belfast for a emergency op 10 days after her op her band had slipped because she started to eat to much to soon he had to remove her band dont mean to frighten you its very importent to stick to the rules i know its very hard when your so hungry but its not worth it hang in there:smile::smile:
