Wow thats great to hear, how did you with the surgery?

Yes I see Fiona ,im currently im my pre op diet its so hard

It is hard but it will soon be a thing of the past! You are definitely in good hands with a good team around you.

The pre-op diet isn't the best but ur moving forward which is the most important thing :)

How did you feel once you were out out of surgery, and how many days did you stay in hospital?

How much weight have you lost ?

Sorry for the late reply!

I've lost about 13kg since surgery and I was in hospital for 6 days (but that's about double or more than the expected time. I had a bit of excess bleeding which Dr. Nolan said doesn't happen often at all - maybe once ever 18 months or so he might get a bleeder :P
