Gastric Balloon date

[goofy07]

Well I have my letter and will be going in on 4 th July for the balloon. First step to healthy weight and healthier life.

Have read everything I can but still have loads of practical questions like can I go home on public transport, what exactly do they mean by mixed ward, is this a general surgery ward or a fat ward( would prefer fat ward) and how sick exactly will I be??

3 weeks tomorrow ooohhh not long ....

it's been a long road but can eventually see some light at the end of the tunnel.
