I hope it goes ahead. I am a WM patient of long standing. I have an appointment there on the 10th June. You may well be in surgery when I am there but if you are not and want someone to pop in the offer is there. You have waited long and very patiently for this so I hope it goes ahead.

The liver diet and I are now in sync. Finally the headaches have gone - I think that took 4 weeks at least! I do still feel very hungry and I am still craving my demon foods - but I went to a party yesterday and did not pick up any crisps, quiche, cake or indeed anything other than some undressed salad and 40 gms of smoke salmon! By eating slowly I didn't stand out either as someone who wasn't eating. Only the host, a dear friend, knew. I felt quite accomplished as I left!
My pre op diet has another 9 days to go now I guess. I am the lightest I have been in a while and I feel better for it.
Happy Sunday - I hope we all get some rest and joy today

I keep thinking this should be week 3 post op, not week 6 of the liver shrinking diet. I am so tired now and lacklustre. I don't think I've eaten so few calories for such a prolonged time - ever! Having no weight loss tool yet means I actually do still feel ravenous. I cannot saintly say otherwise as much as I wish for it!
Life at home is a stressful set up right now. My fabulous daughter is immersed in her GCSE's until 22nd June. She has her prom on 25th June and then she has an amazing summer ahead with a few weeks in America as she flies to spend time with her aunt and then some outward bound thing in Wales. So she is understandably exam stressed at present.
Sadly we have property crisis also. A leak developed last week in the kitchen which was under the floor. Kitchen has had to be removed - it's standing in the lounge at present, I have no oven or grill as a result. The leak is fixed but it's not dry enough to put the house back together. I am unsure it will be fixed before my surgery
So it never is straight forward. Life doesn't gently rest so we can have surgery does it??!
My blood work has improved however so I will end on good news. Back in January my combined vitamin D (D2 and D3) was 26. I was treated for 3 months and then kept on a maintaining dose. My repeated test showed a combined level of 130. So I am pleased. I found this chart on line which was useful to understand it! I've added the lounge and kitchen leak ones for sympathy effect!!!! X
