Ive not got a date for surgery yet, im hoping the consultant will give me a rough idea. I made friends with a girl when we first went to our first forum to talk about what surgery can be offered. She had her appointments last week and was told 5 months until surgery. She has to loose 2st 11lb before pre-op. Im roughly about same as her weight and height so im presuming its going to be the same. Will let you all know next week.... x

Hi Claire and a super welcome to WLS from me too ...

 

[Claire.R]

Morning everyone, just able to log on before I go and get ds from school (just started reception part time).

Im really hoping for a bypass. I weighed myself yesterday was 22st 9lb. Im not looking forward to a telling off from the consultant next week, and I dont want him to tell me to have a sleeve before the bypass.

I have a chest infection now, so cant breath while walking. Doesnt everyone just want to snap their fingers and its all done... wishing wishing lol x

 

[Bev]

Aww Claire... you poor love... that is not good, it's the time of the year for the bugs and chesty infections... hope you soon feel better soon... I squeeze fresh oranges for a boost during the colds season.

Hoping also that you get positive news for your WLS journey and please keep in touch.

Love and hugs, Bev xxx
