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

OliverDog - Good luck. Look forward to an update when you get back.

Good luck to anyone else off to Brussels this week.

Hi homecare ye shes noticed a big difference but then it didn't bother her when i was so big.

Loosing all this weight has even gave me the confidence to set a date for our wedding last week which i would have never done when i was a my heaviest.So she is delighted.

Plus i even fitted in to her size 14 skinny legged jeans the other day.Not that i was wearing them out just testing for size .lol

Cheers tin and carriejess.

Well done tin your going in the right direction hopefully you will get restriction and it will be a bit easier.When i started on this site it was hearing other people success stories that gave me the inspiration that it can be done.So i hope it does give others at the start of there journey some encouragement that the weight will come off .I have struggled some months and lost my way a bit but you just have to get back on track and get on with it.

Hi Bobo - what I want to know is who will be shopping for/wearing the wedding dress? Or is there gonna be 2? Bigsis x

ps You are so regretting sharing that info now aren't you?!

So made up for all you losers, brilliant!!!

Its a week now since i had my de-fill, at least I can sleep laying down now, which is heaven.

I am eating more but not a great deal. havent lost anymore, but then didnt expect to. As long as I stay the same I will be happy.

Maggs, any sign of Sian's new baby yet??

Carrie you are so lucky to be able to do your own fills, be careful babe you dont get run down if its too tight.

Garry nice to see you.

Scratch that I weighed earlier and have put on nearly 2ibs, dammit!!!

Must be the booze, will have to knock that in the head.

My sister and her partner are being banded in Belgium tomorrow, they flew out today. I think Im more nervous for them than I was for myself. They went on my recommendation so hope everything goes ok. Jx

Hi all, interesting talk you all have. Nice to see such support. I am looking to have the band with CDB and I have a few questions if I may?

I am in UK but normally live in India, so how important is the after care in the respect of 6 months after surgery?

How often and for how long after do you need fills?

That's a starter for 10!!!

Many thanks

Hi jersey bean the after care is relay important the band is not filled at the operation so you need to go on a monthly basis to get your band filled.The first fill is done from week four after surgery usually week six and every month after that till you have proper restriction.

Some people can get restriction after a few fills but not all i had about six or seven before i got any sort of restriction.Hope this helps any other questions just ask we have all been in your position.

Hi JB

Welcome! Have you looked into how easy it is to get fills in India? If you travel long distance alot they normally advise you to have some fluid taken out of your band prior to flying so you will definately need easy access to someone who can do your fills.
