I had the gastric balloon fitted on the 19th March and have lost 12lbs already. It seems like I have had it in forever and that I should have lost atleast 3
stone by now but that could have been why I struggled to lose weight in the first place.
The first 3 days were very very uncomfortable, if I could I would have taken the thing back out myself but just like they said after this time I started to feel better.
It is emotionally as well as physically draining. I crave normal food. My husband had a tuna sandwich the other day and I cried because I wanted one. It is hard just eating liquids day after day and seeing everyone else eat normally.
Anyone want to know anymore then just ask.

P.S If anyone can let me know what it is like to have it removed and how they felt afterwards please.
