Thank-you :cool: how long have you been banded for?

Verona, i went with the healither weight clinic they've been sooo good, got a 7 day pre op diet comming threw the post with all the shakes and stuff i need :eek:

Verona sounds great. Italy is a wonderful country.

I was banded on the 14th November 2007 - nine weeks today. I had a two week pre-op diet. I've lost 24.5 kilos so far which I'm delighted about. So far so good.

Regards,

Steve

Not long now for you. time will pass quickly and then there will be no stopping you. Good luck
