Hello!

Hi all!
Just found this amazing site - has answered a lot of questions that I had.

Got funding, and made the decision on where I would like my surgery.

Lovely to meet you all!

A little bit more...

Just wanted to add a few things

I filled in a HUGE form for St Richards (this is the hospital Ive opted for...). Wonder what they'll do with all the info?

Im a hefty lass, but always been active - Im an ex powerlifter, so I was always built for strength, not speed....
I enjoy swimming, and for the first time in 42 years (cos thats how old I am!) I actually 'took the plunge' and went by myself. Not a biggie, I hear you say, but for me it was a major breakthrough. I dont go shopping by myself, so to do that...well, lets just say I was on a massive high!
I only manage to go once a week though, as all the ladies only sessions are in the day, and I work.

I am looking forward to being healthier, slimmer and more confident!

Am getting a bit impatient, but I know I have to wait for news of appointments etc.

I had my op at St Richards, they're really lovely there and looked after me very well!
