Hi Grom and welcome to minis, you are in the right place for advice read through some of the Weight loss surgery threads there is loads on the band, bypass and a few on the gastric balloon. Ask any questions you want and someone will answer. I had the bypass on 8th november and feel great just now....look forward to getting to know all about you...xx

Thanks for the advice!
They have an open day next sat so I have booked my consultation! Hoping to go ahead with surgery in the new year - am so excited! Just hope hubby is happy with everything he hears altho I think he is pretty much agreed that it's a good thing for me to do. How are you doing with your band? How much do you want to lose?

I want to loose at least 5 stone. My ideal weight is 10stone 9lbs for my height (which would mean I need to loose 8stone) but I think Id look ridiculous at that weight, so Im aiming for 5 stone instead. If I loose any more then It will be a welcome bonus. How much do you want to loose?
Im going great with my band Ive already lost 18lbs and am really chuffed. Good luck with the open day and your weight loss journey.
Kind regards

Well it's so long since I can remember being under about 17 st - I'm not sure what I want to lose!! I think getting down to about 13 stone would prob suit me (but I don't even feel I will be able to manage that!!!)
