I must admit I am eating for Britain! Its almost as though you think - well when i have my op thats the end of my gorging days, so I'm gonna make the most of what time I have left. Or is it just me!!!!!! lol

From seeing the obesity consultant to the surgery I put on a stone, which took around two months. I dont regret it as it was during that time that I lost my guilty feeling when eating food of any kind..xx

I am eating far too much at the moment. It doesnt help being out of work as I feel that my day has no routine when the kids are at school and I spend most of the day lounging around and stuffing my face.

This will sound daft, but in a way Im scared to start losing weight until I have my funding. As my BMI is *only* 43 Im worried that If I do well on a diet I could soon drop under the magic 40 number and then not qualify for funding. But as soon as I have heard about funding I will make an effort to cut out all the crap Im eating and stick to eating at meal times. I need to get more active as well.

I am on a 6 months weight course and on xenical (which I have been for almost 4 years with the break of 1 year whilst pregnant)
I have to be weighhed every month (only 2 montsh to go) so I have to either maintain or lose, I have lost everytime i have been around 4 -5 pound each time, not sure what will happen if i gain weight !!!
I am then referred to salford royal for sleep apnea, meet surgeon and have bloods done oh and the " am I mad" meeting !
I eat pretty good food through the week and go to the gym every morning but i hav eto say when friday night comes, the beer wine and food flows till sunday night !!! Hey I have three young kids food and beer is my saviour at the end of the week !!
I very much doubt I will get the time to have a binge, I dont know what the timescale is from being referred to hope hospital and having the op, my dietician said I should have had it done by end september !.
I am sure KFC will be getting my money very soon though.
I have been told though that the more weight i lose pre op the better for me, I would just die though If I got under 40 bmi to be told sorry no your ok on your own off you go !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
