Hi im Mark from the UK. Just wanted to intro myself.

Im 39, BMI of 39 and scheduled for surgery on 1st August. Have high BP, borderline diabetes and a serious inherited back disease. Also family history of diabetes and heart disease (mum and dad). It's odd, but I'm strangely excited about the surgery.

Nothing strange about it, I was super excited as well. Everyone would always ask if I was afraid and I'd say no just excited. It didn't seem like it was happening fast enough. I'm 16 days post op noe

Fantastic. Are you still as excited 16 days on?

Welcome to the group & best of luck.

Welcome. So glad you are here!! Best of luck. And it's great to be excited. You are beginning a whole new life!!

Welcome and if your excited then your informed and ready for the journey! I am still waiting on approval but am more excited now than when I started!

I'm treating myself to my RNY. I've done a lot of research and am 100% sure this is right for me. Only thing I'm really going to miss is a pint of ale in the local pub on a Friday night!

Ohh god don't even say that!! I am so goin to miss Havin a beer with the guys!
