Hello I am having surgery next weds and am very nervous but excited!! I can't seem to find anyone in the uk that having it done too (there must be someone) I would love to hear from you ????x

Not too long will be here before u know it! That is really good weight loss in just a few days imagine what ur be at on surgery day!

I haven't spoke to anyone so you don't know how nice it is to be able spk to u about it. How u finding the purée stage?

More than happy to help at any time! Just to reassure you, I would do it again!! Can't wait to see the results! Purée stage is okay. Much better than liquid. Struggled with some foods, but the real food was welcome

How long did your surgeon put you in the liquid diet for before moving to purée? I have to do it for 4 weeks then move next stage. Am pleased you would do it again. How old are you? I am 26 x

I had a 2 week liquid diet before purée. Each surgeon is different. You may want to do done prep work before your surgery. I got sick of the store bought soup after a week. I'm 32! Wish I had the surgery at 26.

Yes I thought about making some soup before the op. Was there any that didn't go down well? I have been trying for a baby for about 4 years and my doctor recommended the surgery to me as said hopefully the weight loss will help. Also pissed off being like a whale. X

It's the day before surgery I have had my pre op And at the hotel now eeeek I am both nervous and excited x

Hi sparkle diva

I'm due for surgery on May 13th, so after you. Not many of us having bypass that wanna post on here. Can't say if I'm excited, or nervous yet though. Maybe a bit too soon for that yet??? Where are you having it done?

Hi luckyknickers57,

Thanks for ur message. Where are you from? I am having it done at the spire park. I felt ok about till it got closer and closer and now here I am morning of surgery. Being picked up in about twenty mins ???? x

Hi Sparklediva,

My op is going to be at Queen Alexandra, Portsmouth Hospitals. Not absolutely sure it will be a bypass, maybe a sleeve, won't know till the last bloods are done. I can't say I'm too stressed about it, they will do what is best for me. Sort of handed that worry over to them. I'm on my second day of my milk diet, just having a treat, a stick of sugar free chewing gum. Is today the day??????

I can't belive ur having it done in Portsmouth only up the road from where I live. What a small world. Yep today's the day I am at the hospital now bored out my mind! Be careful with the gum it made me more hungry. X

Yeah, I did wonder about the gum!!!! Let us know as soon as you're up to it how it went plz. Yeah, spooky isn't it? Just up the road. Who is your surgeon? It is really sad, that I look forward to my bovril more than anything!!! I'm really hating cooking for the family, I dish up and sit in another room. This food thing is a real addiction. Good luck, can't wait to hear everything went well.

Dr richardsons was my surgern. X
