Omg!! I've booked my surgery with Europe Surgery in Belgium with Dr Chris De Bruyne. I'm starting to getting nervous, well panicked today now that i've put the deposit down & booked the eurostar tickets.

I am 25, female and weighed 17 stone 12 when I started on the 6/9/12 I weigh 17 stone 5 now. I sound like I'm joining AA! Food aa.. It's quite scary admitting the 17 part!
I've started homemade low fat yoghurt & fruit smoothies for breakfast and lunch plus a healthy tea to try and bring my weight down. I am really determined to get the most put of my band and to shed some serious weight!

Love, Pixie x

Hi! Really good thanks! I start my mushy food on the 23rd and so ready for it. Pain is gone now just get the odd twinge if I over do it and wind pain in my back if I walk a lot. I've gone from 17.11 pre op diet to 16.3 today so I'm over the moon! I fit into a dress that I'd bought as a goal dress last time I tried to lose weight and never made it into. Hoping to lose at this rate for as long as I can. How are you doing? x

Mine did too, it said on my notes for the nurse to cut it off after ten days but I cut it early as i was worried it would.
