Hya there, It all depends on your local authority's budget it can be any thing up to two years depending how much of a priority you are or at what stage your Dr has placed you on the priority list. Thats why I decided to go private as my Dr said 18 months and that would have been far too long for me to wait. Lainy

Hello all, sorry I haven't been in touch just got back from my hols banded the 16th july and I feel great. It was difficult doing the mushies while I was away but I managed it, I progress to normal food now which is a bit scary and I have my first fill on the 31 st of this month. Havent weighed myself yet but my clothes are very loose on me ( have a phobia of scales !!!!!!). Hope everyone is doing well I havent read through the treads yet as i have missed over two hundred....but will try and catch up. speak soon Lainy

Thankyou Lynnette for all your help I will do that ( or try anyway) x speak to you soon bye

Oh they sound really good I will definetly get myself some . So do you take any other vits with that ?

Which one do I ask for I have found them on one website but wasnt sure which one to buy, and I know this sounds a bit thick of me but how do you use them?

I was on a web site today that sold protein powders but there were so many was not sure which one to buy, just taking a multivit at the moment and drinking a slimfast to make sure im gettting the vits and minerals i need.

No I'm HAVING TROUBLE TOO FINDING SOME

Oh right I'm rubbish with all the editing of the threads as you can see no diet ticker or pretty pictures, I have been on the tracker site but just cant seem to get it on screen.

Yeah, Banded On Monday Here In The Uk

What Do You Mean?

Thanks Lynnette, YEAH i THINK I'VE BOUGHT THE SHOP OUT OF MINTS !!! I MUST BE THE ONLY ONE TO NOT KNOW WHAT i WEIGH RIGHT NOW i KNOW i STARTED AT 111 KG SO I WILL WAIT WITH BAITED ( OR SMELLY) BREATH TO FIND OUT ON MY FIRST FILL IN SIX WEEKS.

I'ts funny really we were not told about any protein drinks at all we were just told to take a vitamin a day. That is also encouraging to know that you can eat almost anything at ten days I managed some jacket potatoe and cottage cheese today (mushed up ) but it tasted brill.

JUST reading through the rest of the threads that is what scares me nurse76 that must have been so frightning ! but i've been half expecting this along the way as like someone said it's a learning curb for all of us.

Yeah Same Day.. So We Are Band Twins !!

Yeah best way ( with hind sight !!!) I wish I had kept it to myself, and just told the ones who needed to know like husband ,partner and so. Your doing the right thing. What day did you get done ?

It's funny I decided origanally to keep it to myself but I got so excited I couldn't help but tell people !! must admit I regret telling some people though as their response has been quite negative and I feel myself justifying what i have done.

Hello all, sorry I haven't been in touch for a few days but as you know from my threads tuesday (day after surgery) I was so down I felt awful I was regretting it and everything, Happy to say i'm feeling much better as the days have gone on, still a bit wary about how much to eat but i'm sure that will come. Looking forward to going away next week, how was everyone who had to fly with pain and things? Also major problem with bad breath !!!!! tried all sorts and my other half can't wait to tell me how bad it really is ...cheers. Anyway to all those newbies it does get better ( I hope ) also thank you for all your kind thoughts while I was down in the dumps xxxx

Cheers Lynnette, I will ask at the chemist I am taking a multivit a day thats all he advised. DINI --AS YOUR NOT FAR FROM ME WHAT PROTEIN DRINK DID YOU USE ?

Thanks again, would you class slimfast as a protein drink ? or is there one that I can buy over here (UK) ?

Thank you all for your kind messages i've had a good cry and that has made me feel a bit better !! My dr did give me some dietry advice to come home with but i'm just panicking that i'm not eating the right stuff because the varietions on these threads are so different.. i mean my dr hasnt even mentioned protein drinks ?

Do you think that this enough ?

I'M still a bit wary about how much food I should have but I think i'm doing it right I had a weetabix for breakfast, some fruit smoothy and a small yoghurt for lunch and i'm going to have some purreed stew for dinner i'm drinking water as much as I can.

No I am not hungry at all I just feel really down
