Mine was a slight minty taste, the taste was ok it was the "texture" it was thicker that I thought it'd be lol

Oh and if you've not already done them, take before pics and measurements I avoided the camera like the plague before but I'm so glad I did my before pics as I can now look and see the 11st difference even when my head tells me I'm still the same size xxx


Good luck with it all

Really excited for you.

Don't forget to pack some knickers, they might give you paper one's for the operation, I used my own.
But you will still need about 3 pairs in, and another pair of PG.

Good luck with your journey, soon be on the looses bench.:D

Looks like a great list to me. I would defo say 2 pairs of pjs. I took a book, kindle and iPod and didn't have the energy to use them!

I did chuckle a little that you're taking make-up. I knew before hand that post-op I'd look like sh*t.....and I did! No amount of make-up would have helped me :)

Not long to go now. So excited for you x :)
