    Did you get a band or a sleeve?

    Hi there, I had the sleeve a year ago and am very happy with my choice. The recovery was very smooth, and I was up and about (although still taking it easy) after a few days. I have now hit my goal, and am maintaining very well :)

    Vsg at beautiful beings in prague ??

    Hi, I had my sleeve with them nearly a year ago now and had great experience, I actually went directly with the clinic (SurgalClinic) rather than using the beautiful beings agency. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer :)

    Does the removal of ghrelin really work??

    To an extent it does, and definitely at the start. I don't get hungry between meals anymore, so barely snack, but if dinner is late I will get hungry. But the main thing thats worked for me is being full on much smaller portions x

    June 2016 surgeries

    Not sure if anyone is still about lol, but I had my sleeve on the 7th of June. I've reached my goal and then some, which is fantastic. I'm just trying to maintain at the moment, but keep losing, such a surreal feeling having to work hard not to lose!

    Hospital Group Cambridge clinic closure

    I didn't know this, I had the sleeve, but my mum has had the band with them. The only thing I can suggest is contacting them to tell them you're predicament, and see if they would be willing do to anything RE travel costs. I know what a pain this is, when my mum had swelling, and needed an...

    Wrap/sleeve with beautiful beings In Prague

    No problem, I did, I stayed in Brno for about week in total, so by the last few days I was up and about, and walked through the park, and local shops etc, I'd probably just take a little bit just in case, and if you need more you can always go to a cash point :)

    Wrap/sleeve with beautiful beings In Prague

    Hi, I just took a hand luggage suitcase which more than enough, in hospital I spend most of my time in the hospital gown, and then PJ's so really didn't need much, and actually packed too much. I had no problems at customs with my bag of medication and injections, I just put them though on...

    And we are off ...

    I haven't told many people, and am not very open about it, I have sometimes said stomach surgery, or just make sure I pick something light. I've actually been surprised by how little people have noticed how much I'm eating, usually they don't take any notice :)

    Long Haul Flight

    I try not to focus on food as entertainment now, so I fully charge my tablet, and watch a long film/couple of films, or a TV series, and bring back up books/mags. I will just have my normal meals, when I would do anyway, and if thats the aeroplane food, I'll eat the protein and veg, and then see...

    Onwards and upwards

    How active is your job?, most people I know with desk jobs have been back to work after two weeks, I don't know many people who have taken a full six weeks off work . I had the sleeve so slightly different, but by two weeks I was fine, just tired, but waited six weeks to start physical...

    Bad habits creeping back

    Thank you both, that is very helpful. I'm still in the mode where I feel guilty after any treat, but if I really think about it, the three biscuits I had yesterday would have been the whole packet five months ago, I just get so worried about it being a slippery slope. And Feebee, I think getting...
