Journey update, Whittington

[Labelle]

Hi guys, well it's been about 2 weeks since I joined, since then I have had my first appointment which was last week a group seminar on 2/7/2014, it was a really informative session during the session I filled out a questionnaire regarding my eating habits and patterns, and today I received a letter referring me to a psychiatrist who is going to assess me to see if I have a binge eating disorder, in all honesty I don't think I do I just think my eating habits are a bit off but I wouldn't say am a binge eater....either way am happy to go see the expert anything now is a step in the right direction. I also got a letter for my second appointment which is to see the consultant on the 22nd of September really chuffed that things a moving after a very slow start from my referral in march, so from now till I see the consultant in September I have an appointment to see my GP tomorrow see if I can see a dietician and get an exercise referral, my doctor has been really helpful...so ye guys that's what been happening in past 2 weeks....hope all is positive with you all.

You will be surprised at how quickly the time flies even though its months ahead now!

I am not far for there I'm under the UCLH although my boss had his bypass with the Whittington a few years ago (he has all good to say about them)

Good luck with your journey
