Hi everyone,

Feeling quite positive tonight. I've lost 9.5 lb in a week doing pre op diet. One more week to go and it's getting easier everyday
.thank goodness the first few days were really tough.

Got pre op at the hospital on Friday and tonight the nurse called. She was just lovely. So empathetic and warm natured. She covered everything and was really personable. Hope she's going to do my fills!!

I don't her how worried I was about general anesthetic and she went through it all step by step so I'm feeling really reassured.

I've also been sent an exercise plan for post surgery. It's a daily walking plan and as I find exercise problematic this should be about my level and something I can do with my little girl.

Thanks so much to this forum. I actually don't know what I would do without it. Great advice and experience and mutual support from others.

Take care everyone and good luck on your journeys.

Hi Mindy,

I started taking them when I made the decision for surgery. So I'm taking liquid iron, multivitamin and one for my knees and joints...

I know they say there's no malabsorption but like you I was feeling so tired and eating such a lot of crap before!!

Hope you've had a great day X x
