Been in touch with my provider today and just waiting for them to get back to me

Thanks for your replies, but wasn't asking for weightloss. I already follow a high protein diet and am very nearly at target, but suffer terribly with IBS and have just suffered a really bad bout of it and told that it could really help me xx

Hi all Just wondering if any banders have had colonic hydration and if band needs to be deflated before hand Thanks x

Hi all, Does anyone know if its safe to have colonic hydration with a band or if the band needs to be deflated before hand. Thanks x

I had the same problem......was due to go two weeks ago and they actually left it until the day to ring and cancel, can't believe that such a big company only have one or two nurses to travel around the country to do the fills. I also pay for my fills as I need them and they take the payment...

Well, I can agree with what Liz has put and I have put threads on here in the past about this topic. I am one of those people........ I am now two years on with my band and although I have no regrets whatsoever, the addiction thing has taken hold BIG TIME over the last six months...... I have...

I was wondering if any banders out there could tell me if the Hospital group do their band fills with or without xray??

Hi all I have been a member now since I had my band fitted two years ago. I must be honest and say that I haven't posted on here for a few months now, mainly due to personal problems, but I do log in regularly and check on everyone's posts. My question is to any fellow banders and maybe a...

Ive had my band nearly two years now and still get that pain if ive eaten too quickly or if ive eaten too much and god does it hurt!!!!

A big thankyou to you all for taking the time to reply. Hopefully now ive made the first step of posting on here again, I can now get my head into gear and shift this last bit of weight. Julie

Well here goes..... I haven't posted or logged in on here since march as ive felt too ashamed to, but ive reached such a low point in my life at the moment, and I know that in the past you have all been so supportive on here that I feel the need to spill the beans, to hopefully get me back on...

what's happened to two bands liz, is she on holiday as i have noticed that she hasn't been posting on here for a few days, or have i just missed her posts?

well done, what an amazing difference!!!!!!!

who are the wls people that are no longer posting as i must admit that i havent posted for a while, but i do enjoy reading everyone else's post but havent noticed who doesnt post anymore. Have i missed something?

well done on the weightloss, and doesnt it give your confidence such a boost when people pass comment!

I have been for a band de fill today as i was too tight, and my nurse said that people can experience pain in a number of areas if they have over eaten or if band is too tight and she did mention the back area, although i get pain in my shoulder, so hope this helps a little, but speak with your...

I have seen wendy this morning as i went for a band fill, and yes understandably, she is upset, as rumours like this does affect their reputation, so i'm sure that if wendy does happen to read this thread she will feel happier that it has been made known to just be hearsay!

I'm sure you're not doing anything wrong, i think its just a case of getting the sweet spot with the band. I had mine fitted last november and had a steady weightloss up until my last band fill in july, since then i have lost nothing and may have even put on a couple of pounds. I am having...

I know how you all feel, i am absolutely freezing and its still only autumn, i need warm sunshine!!!!!!!!!
