I have got about 2 stone to lose haha more like 10 im 23 stone just now and hope to get down to about 13.Over the last 10 years i have lost eight stone then put it all back on again .I then started dieting again and lost 7 stone and over the years it has crept back on .Hopefully with the band i can get it off and keep it off.

Hi bobobaldy,

I´m another of Dr Chris´s patients. Just want to reasure you that he is wonderful, Fredrik too and the hospital is fantastic! It´s very clean the staff are great and you will not regret this decision.

I was banded 1st July 2008, since then I have lost approx 30lbs! It´s been the easiest weight loss I have ever had. The best thing is knowing I will never put this weight back on again.

My food choices have changed drastically. I am definately eating a lot more healthier. I also induldge in a "cheat" every now and then, but I do not over eat anymore, I simply can´t.

I´ve had two fills by Dr Chris, my band now has 7cc in it and I can really feel that I have good restriction.

The package deal you have taken with Fredrik is ubber fantastic. A friend of mine took that route and it was so much easier than organising everything yourself. I did everything myself because I didn´t know about the package, so I know you are saving money.

Will you be going with someone to Brussels?

Ask away if you have more questions, there are a few of us here on the forum that have been banded by Dr Chris.
