Thanks Montana - I haven't been on for a while, so was interested to see what they said to you. I am not on the forum much at the moment cos waiting was driving me mad, so am getting on with other things and trying not to think about it.
Montana, good luck with your next appt. Can you ask the dietician what will happen if we have put a bit of weight back on, but we are still less that when we started. Because of the long waiting list, do we still have our op stopped?

We just...

Thanks for info xx
Hiya

Thanks xx
