  1. I have got my date for my op 14th of Dec 2nd time round time to start my pre op next week for the 2nd time round. Which i can say im not looking forward to as i struggled through it but done it lost 28lbs but 3 days before my op i got told my op would have to be put on hold due to a abnormal heart beat and that id have to see a cardiologist, well thats all been cleared and my op seems like its just around the corner, but yet so long away if that makes any sense? I just hope everything will go smoothly this time round as it was so heart wrenching to be told i could have it when i was so close and after doing my 4weeks pre op diet. Well i have my fingers tightly crossed and am looking forward to the start of a long and happy future just in time for a new year :thumbup:
  2. I need help am only day 6 into my pre op diet, i have 4 weeks in total i was goin to do the slim fast meal replacement and a balanced meal in the evening, but i just cant drink the slim fast it makes me heave and i cant drink it as am gonna be sick the smell and the taste i cant stand ive tried choc, straw and lemon merangie. I can do the milk and yogurt diet which is 1pint of skimmed milk and 8-10 yogurts low fat ones but i just think im gonna be beyond starving and im gonna find it hard making the kids tea this is gonna be harder than i thought. If you have any words of advice id appreciate it please..... i no this aint gonna be a quick fix to my brain or anythin and if you aint got anythin worth me readin thats gonna help dont write thanks
