hi read your note i am due to be banded on 3 June a i feel sick and excited . How to you go about paying deposit as i don't understand how i have to do it and all the instructions to get to the hospital seem complicated also were is it best to fly to and get taxis any help would be great full as i'm doing this for me and my kids are giving me grief as they are worried about me going abroad for surgery

Welcome Suefee,

Ring or go into your bank and give them the details flirty just posted.

Fly into Brusells International Airport, if you have purchased the inclusive package directly with Dr Chris and Fredrick a taxi will pick you up they will have a copy of the LOGO with them holding it up. If you have not booked package you will get a taxi outside the terminal give them hotel details its not that far.

If you want further details PM me and I'll give you my mobile number and run things over with you .mmm.

Hey Everyone, Well done on all you weight losers that have posted recently, and Im very jealous of all you Glasgow Boys heading off into the sun, take me with you?!

Im still saving for the op, managed to get a huge ebay sale going and have made £200 towards my deposit already. Im glad Im not the only one having problems in working out how to do this through the bank. But seems like you guys have all the answers!!

Still no one going out for the 3rd of July for the op? Looking for a banding buddy if I can find one!!

Hope all the new bandsters are recovering well, it seems you all are, and are making me excited about finally getting this done, roll on July!!! :thumbup:

I am still waiting to hear back from CDB after sending off my medical questionnaire - I presume he gets back to you! I have my date 26/5, but don't want to book anything until I know for definate he is going to do it.

I'm still waiting to hear if anyone else is booked in the same date as me.

Hi Sophie! You are in the best place to get advice from! I do hope you get your slot in Brussels with Dr Chris as he is an amazing surgeon and everyone on here has nothing but praise from him. I don't know much about having the op in Poland but someone may be able to point you in the right direction.

I can't give you much info on flights as my hubby and I drove over as we have a baby who needs a lot of stuff!!

I had my op on Friday 13th March and was discharged lunch time on the Saturday (which is normal). You are in pain/discomfort but it really is bearable and less than I thought. Most people would fly back the day after that (so the Sunday in my case) but we stayed until the Monday. On the Sunday I felt well enough to sit in the hotel lobby and watch rugby so it wasn't too bad. I would have been OK to fly back if I'd have taken it slowly. If you can get a later flight back during the day that would be preferable as you literally feel better every hour! I travelled back on the Monday and it was fine. You are young and I am sure you'll be fine!! Are you planning to take anyone with you?

The pre-op diet is just a low fat, low sugar diet. I tried not to eat anything with more than 4g in 100g of fat. No alcohol either! Gary also suggested taking milk thistle tablets which help shrink the liver. I would've taken them had I thought about it - I have had some in my bathroom cabinet for ages!! (They're prob out of date though!!)

Anymore qu's fire away! :)

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
