Hello, Everyone,
Feeling so miserable.
Still not heard anything. Phoned Lesley today to see if she had received the fax from my gp. She's off work, sick.
Starting to think the whole thing's just a pipe dream. : - (

Chin up sue, it is happening, just cuz someones off sick, things like that don't stop for long, then they catch up. You are on your way chucks, thats a reason to be happy and positive. Hope you feel better tomorrow. x

Thank you for your comments and I'm glad to help anyone in the same position as me, I just try and write down what's in my heart.

John, your Blog has inspired me to write one, so I have just written the first installment.

Thank you Neil and welcome to this great group of people here, I don't know but I don't think there are many men on here and as lovely as it is to be surrounded with beautiful women, they can't half rabbit on and it's difficult to keep up with the stories, but they're smashing lot.

I used to live in Ashtree Road, Tividale when I first got married back in 1973.
I'm on facebook too, John Alldritt
Cheers mate.

Yes Naughty Puppy, I've read your blog, very interesting, boys have different reasons to want to be slim than girls and those reasons change as one grows older.
Your blog has made me see it from a young ladies perspective and I now realize how unhappy overweight women are, yes I've had my tears but for different reasons.
Think I'll write a blog entry on my feelings through my long time as a fat boy and then man.
Hang on in there gal the train will arrive and you MUST get on it.

Thank you very much John, you are a true inspiration to me, I do think that people do have different views.

You see I thought I was fat when I was a child up until I left secondary school.

But I was tall for my age (literally head and shoulders taller than everyone) and I am naturally big boned (this is also true not an excuse lol).

So I have always been made the butt of everyone’s jokes for one reason or another.

I think once I get my surgery I wont be the butt of anyone’s joke anymore.

If that makes sense.

It makes perfect sense and that's why your waiting on the platform, but the train is a slow one because there are lots of passengers, bet there's also lots of seats and plenty of trains to come.:soapbox:

[Sambucca]

wow John, Just noticed your stats.

have you really lost 38lb already? Amazing!

 

[Craftyfox]

I know it is isn't it, just been a walk and my fleece is getting baggy.

 

[Sambucca]

did you take your measurements before surgery John? Would be interesting to see how many inches you've dropped already.

 

[Craftyfox]

No Sam I didn't but I know I was a 5XL shirt and 60" waist so I can go by those statistics.

 

[naughtypuppy]

thats amazing john, well done

 

[naughtypuppy]

Can i ask did you get your yes or no answer on your first appointment?

[tesmaralda]

Hi rach I've sent you an email too. You a get a yes for surgery at your first appt then it goes for funding at your pct, if you are granted funding then you'll get a letter saying you've been added to the waiting list and if you have any holidays they should know about, then you'll get your pre op dates.

I sould be going for my first appontment 3rd march but my Dr thinks its to long to to go so he called the hospital and my first appontment is now 3rd feb. They can check out my cavity as its now known so the district nurse told me.

Dont no if this makes any differance to appointments but Miss heitmann is on annual leave for a few weeks from next week so they will be a surgeon down

Well done crafty I also forgot to do measurements so just going of my clothes

[naughtypuppy]

I was talking to a lady on here who went for an appointmetn last night and there was a group of like 18 people and they were just told about the surgery no yes or no answers??

[tesmaralda]

normally most of the pcts that deal with walsall will grant funding as they know you meet the criteria if Mr Khan and his team say yes.. I know sandwell and BEN PCTs certainly do the same.
