Thanks

Welcome nznikki44, great that youve joined us,, load of info on past posts but if your in doubt about anything ask away.

Bobobaldy, well done you, its fab to hear success stories, and 4st+ is life changing, so be proud.

My second fill is tomorrow with Chris Deprez in Newport, then its 2 days fluids and mushies, then back to France on Monday for a week, hopefully I wont put weight on this time.

Hi Sammy have you had a fill yet?????

Hi CW - yes I had my 1st fill a fortnight ago. It was 1 day short of 4 weeks since the op. I was a bit worried it would be painful but I didn't feel a thing!! When is urs? 2nd fill Sunday - wow hoooo!! I'm going with the WLS package - £349 for unlimited fill for 6 months. I think it's worth it as I like to know where I stand - I have paid and that's it for 6months. Also you can get then done every 2 weeks in London if you need them. I just need some help from the band as my will power just isn't helping. Well I guess that's why I had the op in the first place!!

I think we're gonig away in June. It's great but I will look a state on the beach! I thought we wouldn't be going away because of the cost of the op and pre-op hol but I have worked my magic and persuaded hubby I need a break!! :thumbup: It would be good to lose at least a stone before then.

Welcome cazzamia, and congrats on your recent delivery, did you have an unfill when you were pregs, if so was is total or partial, and at what stage of pregnancy. Sorry for all questions but my daughter is preg with her first, and we're looking for different experiences. TA mmm

Hi mmm

Thanks for the congrats!

If I remember correctly I had an unfill in the first trimester, just to be on the safe side - plus I was suffering from night reflux. He didn't take much out, a ml I think (saw Dr. Foquet.) My band was quite near to capacity at the time. Appetite was pretty much normal afterwards, but still enough to stop me overeating massively. Still managed to put loads of weight on though - mostly through poor food choices and lack of exercise throughout my pregnancy, so to be expected.

Does anyone know Dr. de Bruyne's fill prices - it's been so long I have forgotten? Tried to ring Julie Tosh but she is on the train on her way up to the Edinburgh clinic.

Thanks everyone for their replies so far.

Hi Cazz!

I paid £90 2 weeks ago in Manchester but I think they charge £80 in London. Not sure about the other locations.

Congrat's on becoming a mum again! I have an 8 month old who's keeping me busy!!

Fills cost £80 in some locations and £90 others, If its a combined practice it seem to be £80. Mine is with Chris Deprez who fills for both surgeons CDB and MF and he charges £80 in Newport. There are surgeries ar Newport Bristol, London, Manchester, Glasgow, Edinburugh, and Dublin

If you are unable to contact Julie, who only arranges appointments for some of the venues and not all, you can e.mail: chris.deprez@ecfs.be. He's most approachable and can sort you out.

Thx. for prompt replies! x
