Hi all,
My name is Sara, I am 36 and had the balloon fitted 2 weeks ago. I stupidly decided not to have sedation (Please have it if you are going for it!!!) I have felt sickly and a bit of bellyache since but in 2 weeks I have lost 2 stone!! My starting weight was.... Wait for it ....25st10lb AArrggg! And today I am 23st10 and thrilled to bits!!
The first couple of days were horrible...I wont lie but I feel amazing now and any one thinking about it I would say go for it, especially if you have a BMI like mine were surgery could be a bit risky - My consultant said he would not even consider doing the band on someone of my BMI which surprised me! - I thought it was the best option for me so all the private clinics said.
Anyway I would like new friends who have had/having the balloon and we can share stories, so if you are interested in a balloon buddy email me!
