Hey I'm new!

[lauralee]

Hi everyone I already tried to post so if I have posted twice I'm sorry.

Thought I would introduce myself as I have been reading all your stories and love following your journeys/diaries.

A wee bit about myself then....

I'm Laura and have been attending weight management appointments for the past 18 months. My dietician has now referred me for wls. Yay!! Soooo last week I met with my dietician along with my consultant/surgeon who has put me on the waiting list for a bypass. Last week I also had my pre-addmition assessment and have been told I will have had my surgery done n dusted within 9 weeks. I've to meet again with my dietician soon to go over pre-op diet (he briefly mentioned high protein low carb) and also a psych assessment which my consultant assures me is standard up here and not just coz he thinks I'm off me rocker

Good luck to everyone and keep up the good work
