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

Hey West, those Milk Thistle you have are great, what make are they?

I used to buy Holland Barrats own, but they were only 280mg and only one a day. Then I found stronger ones online from Healthy Direct but even they are only 380mg and again just one a day.

I think I'd like to buy the ones you have, great content.:unsure:

Hey Peeps,

Did ok i think shredded wheat for breakfast, home made fish cake with new pots and salad for lunch and chicken breast and salad for tea!!!! think i'm going to need milk thistle though as won't be too healthy at weekends cause got lots of meals and drinks planned before op!!!!!:unsure:

Hi Freckles,

The Milk Thistle tablets are "Bio Health" additive free, from my local health food shop. They cost £6.33 for 60.

I think you have to give it your best shot and work around other occasions in your life. You will always have invitations to meals and drinks before and after the op. If you don't go silly and you try your best it will be OK. W x

Thanx West, sounds good, I'll check see if i can get them online.

Wishfull, I havent seen Fatpants for ages, hope she's ok.

Morning!

We've been thin on the ground over the last week or so. I hope everyone is OK!

I start on mushies today but had to have pasta for lunch yesterday as I met my manager for lunch. It was well overcooked anyway but went down fine! Not expecting miracles as I've still only got 4 ml in a 7-9 ml band.

I'm glad the format is back to normal on here - yay!!

How's everyone doing today? x

BTW - I've got a monster bruise after my fill. Is this normal? It didn't really hurt so not that bothered but it did for 24 hours after. The first fill didn't hurt though, maybe she was just having a good look around!

I've often had bruising after fills if they werent done under x-ray, dont know if anyone else has or not???

It has been quiet here Sammy. but its the same all over the internet, all the boards I belong to are dead too.

Morning all!

13 days till op:thumbup: Gettin some milk thistle tablets tomorrow as well! My mate swears by them he says they are great for hangovers too!!!! Not that i'll be getting anymore of them! Think the whole internet is quiet because the weather is starting to get better and people want to go out and enjoy it:sad: Not good for us though that check in every day i want to read new stuff and advice!!!!

Hi Ive been looking at flights and the only flight times that are available on my return are at 10.30 am or 9.30 pm and I wondered if the morning flight would be OK for me to go on as I don't really want to hang round till the evening as i have to be out of the hotel by noon any how can some advise me please

Hi suefee, our flight time home was stupid o'clock in the morning.. it was hard going if im honest, i wasnt really in pain its just that i was so hot and felt faint, i asked for a wheel chair at the airport and then a porter took me and my partner straight through, didnt have to queue to check in or anything.. so if you dont feel to good ask for one, the staff at the airport were great x

Thanks wishfull I will book my flights now as I did not know if I had to wait Xamount of hours before I could fly home

Hi everyone, Just a quick check in! Well, it's day three of my pre-op diet and like odge, i can't wait for the big day! Weighed myself pre-diet and in 2 days i've lost my first 4lbs, i'm sooooo chuffed. Have any of you lost much on pre-op diets? Thanks guys x
