I am looking for stomach balloon 'buddies' :)

Hi all i am new on here
i had the balloon in sept i feel constently bloated and the smelly burps
are awful driving my family crazy i lost 10lbs but gained 4 back not
eating carbs is really hard i go to our local club on a saturday i was just wondering if anyone has had any bad side affects when drinking alcohol.
and any tips on these smelly burps.:cheers2:
 
Wow

Hi Guys,
This is so exciting to find out who have had the balloon too.
I had mine in the other day and I'm feeling so ill.
Horrible stomach cramps etc. Cant wait to feel better and loose weight.
i've never really been on a blog site so not exactly sure how it works.
Would anyone be keen to have a group email list thingy?
Would love to talk to people individually? Btw I'm 28, live in Australia, and weight 87kgs I suffer from PCOS too and I just ca'nt wait to get this extra weight off me. I'd love to weight 70 kgs! So If I could loose 17 kgs in 6 months I'd be SOOOOOOOO happy.

Talk soon,
D xx
 
hi all, im new on here today. I know some of your post are fairly old by a few months but i would love to know how you are all getting on and your weight lose to date with the balloon fitted.
I have been making arrangements today to go in and have mine fitted but am feeling a little worried after reading your post's!!

Would be really grateful of your thoughts, or anyone who has had it done with or without success also anybody that has used the national obesity surgery center.

Many thanks!!

HI Deanie,

I had my ballon put in 3 weeks ago and i am happy to have lost around 8 kgs so far:hurray:. The first weak was hard but i personally have had worse pain (toothache or slipped disc). When i eat too much my tummy lets me know straightaway. I have realized 1- i need at least an hour between having water and a meal 2- if i eat more than 1/2 what is on my plate i will throw up. 3- my tummy does not like beans, banana, orange juice and protein shakes. i am hoping i loose another 2 kgs this week so i get encouraged further.
 
wow!!! well done on your weight lose!! thats amazing, how did you find it when they put it in?? Its good to hear that somebody isnt having a terrible time of it, I expect some amount of pain and sickness but im a dance teacher and i need to be fairly active in my job so plan not to have much longer than 2 weeks off? does that sound like a reasonable time scale? all so much to think about, i need to shift 4 stone and want to do it by june next year as i get married then, is that to short a time? please keep me up to date with all your news, its really good to hear somebody positive!!!:hurray:
 
Deanie,

The first few days will be hard but i think 2 to 3 weeks is the right time to go back to normal life. You wil need these 2 to 3 weeks to get used to having the balloon and knowing when u can eat more and when u can stop.I actually wanna start excersizing but i still dont have the stamina to do that. :ack2:
Ideally, i would like to loose 30kgs but i am trying to set small goals and reach them first. At the moment i wanna loose 10kgs before the 15th (a month anniversary).
