Hi ladies, how you doing?

Hi I am due to have mine on 20th and am also new.

Great two people also getting surgery similar time will be good to do the journey together in Jan and help each other out with support. How are you guys feeling i am super exited but also nervous at the same time. Really dont want to wish Christmas was over but also really want it to be Jan!

Can i join i do not have my sleeve until 20th Jan but starting LRD on 6th Jan?

I am interested in this post as i have a BMI of 35 and am having my sleeve on 20th Jan. When i do my LRD my BMI will fall below 35 hopefully but as my initial consultation my BMI was 35 I assume this is ok. I am paying for my sugery privately.

Hi everyone, I am haivng mine on 20th Jan and have seen there are a couple of others also having theirs done on 20th as well. I am super exited and looking forward to the start of my new life with a little tummy! I am due to have my pre-op on Friday this week and to be honest have been eating really bad and thinking I am not starting my LSD until the 6th Jan. is anyone else doing this? It would be great to ge to know you all ahead of or surgeries and also after to offer support and enouragement to each of us.

Hi I am having mine on 20th Jan in U.K. Can I join you guys in this forum for Jan please Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I am sorry to hear that you have had a setback and hope that the surgery goes well; this has worried me a little myself as i have had 3 c sections and also had adhesions when i had my hysterectomy. Hope you get better soon!

Good luck with you pre op diet and op, i am 8 weeks away and dont start my LSD to first week in Jan.

I have children who are adults and they are supportive as they have seen my on a diet most of their lives and have said that they think its a good thing as I cannot keep my weight off. My partner is supporting me but has said that they would prefer if i did not have surgery as they are scared that something will happen to me. I understand this but have talked to them and explained that I need to do this for me!

conguratulations i hope you get your date soon.

I have a hiatus hernia which is very large which means that i suffer with GERD my surgeon at first suggested a bypass but then after he has discussed my case with the MDT team phoned me back. He said he had spoken to the professor and that they will operate on the hiatus hernia and do a sleeve as they think this will be best option. He mentioned about doing the sleeve a bit lower. I am not sure what this means but am going to speak to him at my pre op appointment. I am having my surgery on 20th Jan. I currently take Landszoprisole with helps with the GERD.

I am looking forward to being able to go into shops and not have to look at the back of the rail for the large sizes or to shop in big girl shops. I am also looking forward to not having to really plan what to wear and having a waldrobe full of clothes which i can only fit in less than half of them! I am looking forward to working my way through them and then getting rid of them and buying smaller clothes. Like you guys being fitter and healther.

good luck for your surgery let us know how you are doing?

Hi is anyone having a sleeve in the UK in Jan? I am having mine on 20th Jan and have looked at the monthly groups and there does not appear to be a Jan 17 group. I know some else tried to set one up but it looks like this has to be done by the administrators?

Hi Meeb, good luck for Monday not long now for you hope goes well come back and tell us how you are?

Glad I found this I am having my Sleeve on 20th Jan and have been eating more and thinking the same that I won't be able to eat this when had op! I really must try to eat a little healthier before starting my LSD Sent from my SM-G925F using the BariatricPal App
