Luton and Dunstable is that just checking if so then I'm about three months in, 1st appointment I was upset cause I thought people would be judging me but they were lovely, saw a dietician nurse gave me a book to write down what I ate and excersize I did etc you get weighed measured and just talk through what you've done and what's happened through your life how you use food and things honestly it's really good welcome by the way I'm back on the 20th miss you by a day X

Hi
What tests did u have done at first appointment?
Was you told how long you would be doing Tier 3 and if you were a candidate for Tier 4?
I have read people start the milk diet - are you on that too?

I had a load of blood test done hard part was they were fasting do you have to not eat after 10 pm before first appointment, I've had separately that was suggested sleep apnea test which I have very mild but no intervention needed, other than that no other tests on my second appointment they put me on the milk diet for four weeks this was awful but I got through it with some tears on my last appointment the nurse said to me she was happy with my loss as they expect you to lose 5% body weight I'm on teir three for 12 months there up front about asking if surgery is something you want I now have to maintain my loss till may when I can be referred to teir 4 hopefully I was also given a load of work books to go through which I've done that's where I'm at, at the moment X how old are you and where abouts are you from I'm 35 and live in Wellingborough Northants ?
