Hi I am Mel
I had my surgery in Darlington on 8th May. I am only two weeks post surgery .
At the seminar they will measure you, weigh and work out your BMI. You will be in a group wen given the talk. At the end you will be given an information pack to take home.

Your portion sizes will be in the pack. You will be advised to go to your nearest change for life class...... this was the best advice ever. I dont know how I would have learnt everything without them.
My seminar was in october last year and I started classes at Ferryhill. Right up till my surgery, I only missed one class. They were fantastic.

It was good to meet like minded people at different stages of their journey. Lots of questions were answered.

Hope this helps.

Hi I'm Claire I have my surgery on the 17 th June 14 I go to the Ferryhill class too I'm from Spennymoor

 

[Barleyboo]

Hi Claire are you getting nervous yet then? I am excited and frightened and a million other things too .... The diet so far is pretty good I am finding I still have stuff to eat from my daily allowance and because you have to have everything on the list I end up having supper .
I think DMH have a great diet compared to some which seem very extreme.

 

[Barleyboo]

Hiya Mel
How are you feeling two weeks after then? Did you feel dreadful at first?

 

[Barleyboo]

Thank u

[Mel1927]

Hi Barleyboo, I must be honest and say the first 4 days were awful but I am feeling a lot better now. The puree is not as bad as I thought but I had lots of recipes from my C4Life group, which is helping.
