Anyone know of Dr De Bruyne Chris

Hi

I have decided to get the procedure done - just have to save up for it. I live in uk and want to go to Brussels as it seems cheapest and safest there. Anyone know of the above?

Thanks

Thank you girlies for you well wishes. I am in the hotel atm just gonna go to bed, uup at 5am.

My Mum had her op today and when my eldest daughter went to visit tonight, she was fast asleep.

they said everything went fine, so I do feel a bit easier in my heart now.

And it has taken my mind off myself, which is a blessing, I dont feel nervous, cos i know there's nothing to be scared of. Just want it to be over and be back home.

Will try to log in asap.

Nite for now, take care out there xxxx

Freckles - I'll be thinking about you today! It'll all be over by the time you read this!!

I read the Best article. IT was OK nothing new really new. I thought it was going to shock me!! The only thing that did worry me was it said you have diet of milk and yogurt 2 weeks before! I am not planning on doing that though as Frederik just said low fat.

Pre-op diet starts tomorrow so having a blow out chinese tonight! :thumbup:

I've got friends over at the weekend so I'll have to be careful. I have bought lots of fruit, yogurt and frozen yogurt to keep me on the straight and narrow!!

Hi sammy im sure you will do great on your preop. Hey freckles hope everything has gone ok for you, you will soon be up and about posting your experiences x

here you!!!!!!!! we are all shallow, i am joking, hahahaha

Sorry gary, obviously i didnt mean you lol x :thumbup:

Hi angie..not seen you on here for ages..how are you doing?..hows your weight loss going?(does your little ticker suitcase mean 5 stone?!)..and did you lose it gradually or more at first or more later after fills..I have slowed down going for first fill this tuesday,and the second one 2 weeks later. hope it will make some difference! gillian x

Hey wishfull just accepted u on facebook ur a glamour doll

Think my daughter got the worse pic possible of me :thumbup:, i was at my heaviest then. You and your 'new' fella make a lovely looking couple.. he's a lucky fella, your lovely and i dont know why you have been putting yourself down x :)

Hi wishfull ah i think u look great... Ah i duno if hes me new fella or not lol im actually half thinking of not meeting him now just go on a mad wkend in liverpool instead but sure il see when time comes i change my mind like the weather lol

Haha fatpants ah no hes not waxed thats just him oh naturel lol ah im grand doing ok i have 6lbs off since 13th feb so happy enough

Hows u are nervous yet?

No I'm n ot nervous, well actually I am nervouse about the pre-op diet, I just want to get the band fitted and over and done with. When I got my date I was excited and it seemed really soon, but it seems like an eternity now!

Men don't always gop for looks, but this guy must have cos you are a looker, I think you have stunning looks, very distinct, and the I bet the irish accent must turn him on!

So remind me how much you've lost since your op in September, just so I can start dreaming about the new me and taking up pole dancing. I tell you that would be some sight! The pole would probably buckle under the strain!

fatpants:tt2:

Hi Flirtylass,you should go for it, sure what ou got to lose when you going back over,

i know i asked you this already but if yo don't mind where did you say WLS is in Ireland,did Frederick tell you he has a nurse here now,x:smile:

Hi Kaka, hows your daughter doing on pre op diet is she getting nervous, im starting to get very nervous now went to boots today get last few bits feel its really happening nowx:w00t:

Hi Frerckles,your probably over your op by now hope everything went ok for you, sorry to hear about your mum at least shes over her op and will soon be on the mend,look after yourself look forward to hearing from you when you feel up to it x:smile:

Hi to everyone, hope your all doing well x:smile:

hi Sammy, have you looked at the aftercare packages from WLS?..they are 6 months 12 months or 2 years..unlimited fills and unfills and all advice etc..they are held all over country, so you might have one nearer to you?..me and bigsister have found one only 10 mins drive away from us at bupa hosp, so are really pleased we dont have to travel..its worth a vist to their website for you, you never know (dont know where you live tho, so cant say if there will be one close)..wendy the fill nurse is familiar with doctor chris bands and noticed a few on forum do use WLS

Gillian - thanks. I have looked at WLS. I live in Berkshire and the nearest place is London. I do work in London sometimes but it'll be hard to match it up with the days Dr Chris is there too and I'll prob not want to go back to work feeling like a pin cushion!!

Spire do fills (think that's who Freckles is being re-done by) and there is one closer to me. I phoned then and they said they could do it but it would be best to stick with ur surgeon. I will phone back though if i decide to go down this road as I can't see it'll make a huge difference. She said they would x-ray you to see where the port is so that's fair enough. It would be so much easier for me and cheaper as it's nearly £40 to get into London and I hate the tube so another £25 in taxi's!

I will speak to Dr Chris - I am willing to pay the extra to go into London to be filled by Dr CHris (I think he actaully does them or at least visits the London clinic) but I won't be happy if you have difficulty in getting an appointment!!

Just finished my last supper by the way! A lovely chinese take-away and I went to McDonalds for lunch for good measure :)!!
