I will be geting filmed by itv, i believe it is about operation pre_care and after care. I am quite happy to be filmed as i am the one who put myself in this situation of obiesity and getting it free on the nhs, the least i can do is let people see that the nhs is something we should be proud of .

I do truly hope it all goes well for you and your very altruistic motives.
 
Hi I have avoided being in front of any camera for years and I sometimes hide from old school friends as I am ashamed of how I look. No way would I go in front of a TV camera - I have watched those maternity programmes and very few people come out of this well. Stay away is my advice!

hi liz are have you had the opp yet x
 
My surgery was never a secret. I find people who do the filming inspirational. If it could be that for others I'm all for it. I have known several people who were on fat surgeon's and I find them amazingly brave.
 
I think the tv companies are doing a good job fat surgeons / doctors. Was done really well and they were very brave to do it I don't think I could do that but I do help at my sleep apnoea clinic to do a group session once a month for new people using a cpap machine and help them a lot off them have weight problems too but are not going for surgery I never mention that part as its upto them but if anyone does ask I tell them my experience and show them wls site saying who good it is

I am due to have an op this week to hopefully cure my stress incontinence. I had a call from the surgeon saying Embarassing fat bodies wanted to film it. I refused as my everyone would see my lady garden on their huge plasma tv's in glorious HD!!!! However, had it been for my bypass I would have said yes! Anyway, after I refused the surgeon said I probably wouldn't be fat enough anyway, lol.

Omg I'm sorry but this did make me giggle :D:D
Hope all goes well with the op and no I really wouldn't want my undercarriage plastered across the nations wide screen TV's either.

I actually sent my details off to Embarrassing Fat Bodies as they asked for big folks to join in. That was before I decided to finally opt for surgery. Haven't heard back yet and I'm not sure I'd want to do it now, tbh.
