Hi hon I was banded at st Georges by mr kalivicostas. After I got my funding I saw the surgeon (3 months ish wait), then I saw dietician(8 weeks), then I had to see psychiatrist cos of my bipolar which took a month but not everyone needs that. Then you get on the list and its 18 weeks wait. Any questions please do ask.

Lou xx

This is the time scale id have had but I got a cancellation so had my op earlier than most. Got 4 days notice but at 5 foot 5 weighing 17 st 7lb I had a low enough bmi to only do 4 days of milk diet apparently. Now 14st 11lbs. Xxx

Dont think i will be so lucky to get a cancellation lousarah....things seem to be falling into place now though... Got an appointment with the dietician in October, but ive asked for an earlier one as i thought October is tooooo far away... So should have one sometime in this month...After then i will be put on the waiting list...x

Sweet well done hon xx
