Hi ladies! Was just wondering how you are all doing with your surgeries, pre ops and post ops. I've got mine coming up on the 15th November... 6 days! Hope to hear from you all soon x

Hi Hun! It's been ages! How are you getting on?? Almost at the finish line I hope. I can can kinda see the light at the end of the tunnel now. Seeing surgeon and anaesthetist on the 30th Sept and if all goes well I'm hoping I will have my op before the new year! What's been going with you? I...

Hello all!! Long time since I've been on here! How is everyone getting on?? I've now been on milk diet to try and lose 5%... 2kg to go! Does anyone know what happens after this? Hope you've all been getting on ok xx

I know!! The service is really busy at the moment apparently. I know a consultant Gynaecologist who works at L&D (I tried to pull in a favour... Shameless I know lol) but even she couldn't help! I did call today and got a slightly earlier appointment - 26th May :) Will keep calling to check...

FFS MDT appointment booked for 27th June!!! OMG that seems like forever away!! Fingers crossed there are some cancellations :( How are you ladies getting on? xx

I was really nervous about approaching my GP about it in 2014, as I had heard how dismissive some GPs can be when it comes to the matter - but to my surprise my GP was very understanding and so lovely about it. He typed out the referral letter as I was sat with him in the appointment, asking me...

I hope you are recovering well! xx

Awesome! Thanks Foxy!! xx :D

I am so sorry to hear that hun. That's the thing about trying to lose weight, sometimes life gets in the way, and completely throws you off track. Try not to beat yourself up about it! Chin up, keep moving forward and good luck!! xx

Thanks Foxy!!! How long did it take for you to get your appointment with the sleep apnoea clinic? I'm hoping it's not too long as I'd like to get that out the way asap! :D

Hi all!! Thank you for the messages. The appointment went amazing!!! I saw the consultant Anaesthetist who was soooo lovely. He looked at my bloods and my ECG, asked about my conditions, what medication I was on, weighed me, took my BP and was happy that all my conditions are well...

First tier 4 appointment with the Anaesthetist in 2 hours. wish me luck!!! xx

Hi All! Thanks for your replies. I'm just very anxious at the moment. I've done so much research so really just wanted to know the experiences of people who have actually been through/ are going through it. I've not discussed with the Surgeon yet - that will probably put my mind at rest...

Welcome!! I can definitely identify with you (especially in the relationship department :cry:). I have been on one diet or another since age 14! Gained weight, lost weight, and gained back even more lol! As a result suffered from depression for a very very long time... I would say definitely...

Thank you!! xx

Hi!!! I imagine that's how my appointment on the 21st with the Anaesthetist is going to go. I wonder when I will get my MDT appointment then.... I suppose I'll have to wait and see. What is slimming world like? I've been wanting to join, but the group closest to me has meetings midweek at...

I've not seen MDT yet, but seeing Anaesthetist on 21st. It seems to be the other way round for most people.. I'll let you know what happens at my appointment. We have similar stats! Will be interesting to see if our journeys are alike. :D

Thanks! I'm praying it does! xx

lol I'm sure she's used to that reaction! Really hoping you get your surgery date at your next appointment. Fingers crossed for you! x

Really nice reading people's progress on here. Well done ladies! xx
