First Appointment tomorrow

[judi2302]

Just wanted to share because I am excited and nervous - at 10am tomorrow I have my appointment at Spire Hospitals after our local PCT agreeing to fund Weight Loss Surgery.

Now I wait with baited breath to see what I will be offered. I have spent the last ten years hovering between 18 and now all time high of 20st 7lb.

I was 12st when I was 12 and battled to keep around that weight up to the age of 20, I weighed 15st after the birth of my daughter and it has crept up and up with a few temporary downs after going to slimming clubs, gyms even overeaters anonymous. So here I am at 55 hoping at last to live life instead of hiding away

I remember I was a nervous wreck when I had my pre-op appointments, I think it was because it meant so much to me, and I knew that this was my final chance.

Good luck Judi. You'll be fine. Make sure you come back & tell us all how it went.

Good luck with your first appointment.

I had my first one yesterday and it was lovely. At last someone understands and doesn't judge.

Just be open and honest with them, especially about your eating habbits as will help them to decided which surgery you are best suited too.
