I’ve found the group I’ve just been added. Enjoy your vino hun, it’s almost the weekend Xx

Ditto Hun, We’re in this together Dr Neff was lovely, I was able to ask everything I wanted too. No bloods or anything, just a chat . I learnt a lot at the group meeting too. I’ll look out for that Facebook group, I’ll be interested to hear others peoples stories. My best mate had a bypass...

I had my group meeting a few weeks back at Orpington with the dietian and Dr Neff. I had to fill out a questionnaire and then Dr Neff went through it all and sent a letter to everyone stating all was good to go ahead. I have my 2nd dietian appointment on Thursday where I’m hoping to then get...

The dietician refers for tier 3 at either Kings or Kent. No idea why I’ve not been referred but I’m hoping that’s a good thing as it makes my wait list shorter?? Roll on Feb for my next appointment x

Tier 3 is a diet, no diet was mentioned to me? I’ve got my follow up appointment for Orpington on the 7th Feb and I’ve received a copy of all the notes and blood results and still nothing was mentioned? But when I saw her I had given her a lists of dates and diets I’ve tried in the last 5 years...

Oh I’ve only received an appointment to see her and no one else?! Have you been referred to kings for tier 3? x

@MrsEvans2015 how did your appointment go?

Nope nothing, I’m already trying to diet so maybe that’s why she didn’t mention it? But she said I shouldn’t worry to much if I don’t lose. She was so lovely. You’ll have to let me know how you get on xx

Nope, no blood tests, she just weighed me. Recivied my follow up appointment already for the 7th Feb at Orpington hospital xx

So I saw the Dietitian yesterday, she was so lovely and understanding. There was no mention of doing tier 3?!! She recommended I go see the doctor to get some help with my Anxity as surgery can make anxiety worse so she wants it’s managed before we can move forward. She then explained she’d...

I got referred in June so I’m keen to start and then get myself of the official list. How much did you lose doing tier 3? You sound like the heading to the finish line, How exciting x

Ok great, thanks for that info. I’ve been struggling to find any time scale and info on tier 3 x

Oh right, well I didn’t know that, my BMI is 42 so I guess tier 3 is gonna be a 12 month journey for me. Do you complete a whole year or is it just a matter of losing 5% to complete. Fingers crossed you’ve done enough to reach tier 4 x

I keep hearing 12 months too, which seems so long?! When I’ve researched it says 6-12 months so maybe it goes by the individual? All I know is that you’re expected to lose 5%. I’m Interested to know what happens if you reach your 5% sooner?! Does that mean you’ve finished? I have a lot of...

Exactly a week behind me lol, i’ll Let you know. I’m excited to get the ball rolling but nervous at the same time

Well I have a appointment with a dietitian coming up for the end of Oct and I have these questions I have to fill out and I’ve noticed at the end of the the form where they fill their bit it in it mentions tier 3 with a tick box for referral. So does that mean tier 3 is down to the dietitian or...

Do you not? I have to complete tier 3 before I can go on the list. I could be on tier 3 for a year before I get on the official list which is why I’m so keen to start x

I’m at the PRU in Kent, I’m just so down at the mo I just wanna get the ball rolling. Maybe i’ll Give me doctor a call and see if anything is in place yet x

So my surgeon is said to be introducing me to Tier 3 before I go on his official list. Thing is when do I start? Is there a waiting list to start Tier 3? It’s been a month and I’ve heard nothing. Unsure if I need to call someone, wait or what........ I know I’m impatient but this silence of not...
