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

Thanks Freckles for the info on posting photos - I'll get hubby to give me a hand later. I'll get him to take another photo actually as I've lost prob a stone since last full shot I've taken. Could use my FB profile photo taken in Pizza Hut though couldn't I?!!! :thumbdown: After visiting the ice cream factory and having seconds of the toppings lol!! :) No actually I prob only managed 2 small pieces of pizza and a small ice cream. Funny how the sweet stuff goes down so much better though eh?!!!

Slinky - u'll be at goal before you know it. I don't know if my photos will inspire you but I hope so!! I'd lost another 2lb this morning - not sure how but I have so maybe 12 stone by Christmas will happen!

Hi everyone, I went out with some friends the other night for dinner (something Ive avoided since being banded) the meal wasnt a problem but I found when we went onto a pub finding something to drink difficult!!! so I was wondering what do you all drink when out socialising (all I could think of asking for was water as everything else seemed to be either fizzy or calorie laden) :thumbdown:

Congratulations that's great! Keep with the soup as I find it is my main staple at the moment and I am 10 weeks in. I have soup at school most days - just lots of different NCG ones.

Keep us posted on your loss and stay positive.

Hi Everyone.

Not been here for a couple of weeks been sunning myself in egypt! Thanks for the previous comments to my messages.

Anyway, my op is booked for 2 weeks tomorrow. I'm really nervous, not about the op itself but the hard work afterwards. Its great to hear of all of your success stories, it really does give you motivation.

Anyway, any tips in the next few weeks would be very useful.

Hey its the best thing I have ever done. Really happy the weight is flying off. The hospital staff where great chris and fred are lovely. And I can call bridget whenever I have a problem no complaints . There was no way I was going to lose the weight without the band.

Hey just dont worry its the best thing I have ever done! Everyone is helpful when you are there. And bridget is really helpful afterwards if you call her. I must admit I am sick of herbellife shakes . But this works and after a month you can eat nearly normal just smaller sizes.
