January 2014 surgeries

Matra..im getting banded on 20th in Belfast...full of nerves and emotions! Started pre op yday, on a high protein low carb diet and did something really stupid forgot that carrots had carbs in them until I googled it lol! My mind is all over the place atm! Hope every1 is feeling good x
 
Ladies...can I ask what you have told work ? Ive told my HR that im having keyhole abdominal surgery which is true...they wanted more details but I want it to be private. But im friendly with 3 girls in my team who are obsessed with healthy eating and fitness to the point I feel like poking my eyeballs out..I am not comfy telling them what im having done but no good at lying either! Any ideas? X

Don't tell unless you want to. Don't let work or colleagues pressure you into a confession. Your body, your life, your business!!

You could say you're having your gall bladder removed. It's very plausible and could equate for your new healthy living and weightloss.

Good luck
 
Thats exactly what my mum said to say :) on my way to work now will do a bit of research into gall bladder removal in case they corner me with questions haha x
 
Hi everyone!!! Is there a space for me on the losers bench????!!! I had my sleeve on fri 3rd, and came home last night -Monday. All went well and had a really positive experience!!! Very little pain- just twinges of discomfort relieved by paracetamol!!! On my build up regime of milkshakes/soups and fluids, and not feeling hungry!!!! Good luck to all those due to have surgery - I hope everyone has such a positive experience as I am having!!! Xxxx
