hi. well today i had one toast from the small loafs of bread. with scrambled egg. lunch was a pitta bread with chicken and lettuce. and tea was home made veg soup. with a bread roll. i bought myself some healthier choice crisps and biscuits but so far i have stayed clear how strange when i dont have them in i reach for the kids crisps and biccys when i have healthy ones in i dont reach for any lol, i had a shape yoghurt with lunch too.

The quorn fillets are really nice. i dont mind them. they nothing like chicken thou but the chicken nuggets are lovely too. baked in over,. crispy on outside soft in the middle they remind me of macdonalds nuggets just that they quorn lol.

its nice to have someone to chat with and good to put on here what i eat that way i darent eat nothing bad as i have to admit to it lol.

mind my boss is away and im working in a tea room. making home made chips. cakes scones pies and i have so far resisted. whoop! xxx

sunderland... i had first appointment with nurse and was told bypass or sleeve. i think am swaying towards sleeve. but i had put on from seminar to appointment. and at appointment told i had to loose stone before next appointment which should be within 6 months. that was sept. so am hoping jan feb time for next appointment which i think is with consultant and waiting list then i think.

darlington just opened up to baratrics. a friend i know went to seminar about 4 weeks ago. then they rung her up the following week to do bloods and told her they were doing it this week! she has gone in today to have it done tomorrow. she getting the band. she has got a lot of medical problems but all in all its been about 4 weeks from start to op! i couldnt believe it. she must be one of the first in darlington hospital to have it done lol. she having the band in. so a few people who find out about darlington being open to this might try and be reffered there instead so it might cut down the waiting list for sunderland hoping anyway haha. but saying that i need to loose this stone first lol and a bit more cos i put on a little after appointment too. i feel like am hungry all the time haha. x

... your experience is very similar to mine. I had a target of 4kg to lose after seeing nurse and after a year of cancelled appointments I finally had follow up appointment in Feb this year. hadn't lost any weight but hadn't gained either, but as they had messed me around for so long with appointments, agreed to send me for an endoscopy, which will be your next step if you are having the bypass. I had that 21st July, and had lost 5kg so agreed to put me on list. Now awaiting appointment for surgery, which they said would be 4-6 months so should have it done by end Jan.

I think things are speeding up at Sunderland now, so you probably won't have the chew on that I've had.

good luck with it all !!
