Hi I am new on here and was wondering how long it will be before I have my surgery. I met with the surgeon for the first time last September and I am due to go back at the end of this month to see the dietician. I was told that when I go back this time he would apply for funding if I had lost some weight. I also wanted to know how much should I be looking to lose before the operation?? Any information would be great as I am really nervous about the procedure!!! xx
