OMG I can't believe it !!!

[Paula Garner]

After almost two years of waiting, I have just had the call from the bariatric team at Derby I've got my surgery date !!!!

On the 23/9/12 the new chapter of my life will begin. I'm excited and scared all at the same time !!! I'm still in shock

I don't know whether to be happy or scared !! It's a strange feeling when it becomes real isn't it?

That's exactly how I felt...I was so excited!
The nurse and the anaesthetist laughed at me because I was so excited while I was on the bed waiting for my anaesthetic.
Once it's over you won't look back...even at just 2 weeks post op I'm already feeling better than I have in years.
When do you start your pre op diet? And which one are you doing?

I start it on Sunday. I'm going to do the milk diet. It will be easier for me while I'm in work

 

[Paula Garner]

Congratulations wow! That was a really long wait. Was this what the insurance require?

Sent from my iPod touch using WLSurgery

No lol, just the usual time most of us have to wait on the NHS

 

[Evenstarr]

If you're allowed sugar free jelly go for it, I think that's what really helped me on the milk diet.
Good luck
Em xxxx
