Sleeved on the 14th Oct and apart from re learning what my body wants/needs its been pretty easy to cope with...... so far!

Hi @@sk101 !

Welcome to the boards! I have found this to be a place with great resources, answers and support.

What part of the country are you from?

thanks for sharing. I'm going in on the 9th, and mostly what I thought no about is how I'm going to cope.. this helped put me at ease! Have you lost a gods amount of weight so far?

I found coping quite easy after the first week. Follow the advice given by your team, don't rush things and don't let your brain overcome what your body actually wants. The mental side of things is the key here I think. If you get yourself into the right mindset all will be well.

Good luck for the 9th

Hi SK101,

Apologies for the late response, I've been super busy workwise recently and just ignored the board.

Welcome, glad you're doing ok and you've found the board valuable, I did/do too. It's great to have somewhere to bounce things off, as well meaning as people are, they don't understand fully.

Hi Super busy RosieCheeks :-)

Thanks for the welcome
