Weight loss is never a standard line downwards. It's a wiggly drop and stall and drop. You know you stuck to it and that's all that matters. The objective of the LRD isn't to lose weight after all - it's to shrink and soften your liver. You will be fine.

Good look for tomorrow. I can so so relate as its 52 weeks tomorrow that I had mine. I sit here a year exactly ahead of you, with around the same start weights and I know you will be superbly happy this time next year sweetheart.

Sending lots of best wishes. Remember your emotions will drop and you will have a piggy few days post the anaesthetic. Most do and weeping is common. Pay no heed. It's just the drugs.

Thinking of you xx

Thanks everyone. Iv jus been to gp where the nurse did my clexane injection an showed me how to do it. Iv had no phone calls today so looks like its full steam ahead. I have to b at the hospital for 7am and get checked in. Iv no idea what time my op is as they dont tell u till your there. I will try update tomorrow as long as i have some signal on my phone.
