Another Newbie :)

Hey guys and gals

My name's Cath. I've been lucky enough to get funding for surgery and received my letter today for 1st hospital appointment at Bournemouth Hospital.

I'm feeling very nervous about it all but I know it is the right thing for me. My health is bad and I'm very limited in what I can do. I can't wait for that to change!

I came here as I'd really like to share my journey with others who have been through it and those who are going through it as I know I will learn a lot from you all

Hey Chris, I'm not sure yet. I think the band because the bypass seems a bit scary, higher death rate etc. My boyfriend is only just on board with it all and I think he would find the bypass too much. Saying that though I will see what the consultant suggests as I know some people with the band put the weight back on and i don't want that to happen!

Don't say that.....I'm a bander and it's never going back on I won't let it lol. I think whatever the op there are ways to cheat it....keep the focus and it works not easy but with graft you can do it x

Sorry I'm a bit late in saying it, but welcome and Hi!
I'm still relatively new to the process, my GP referred me in April and it's just snowballed from there.
Lots of luck with your WLS journey.
