Recommended Posts

Hi chucklecheeks!

Not in the UK at the moment, but I have dual citizenship and spent the last 15yrs in London. Does that count? B) Where in the UK are you?

Believe you me, I can definitely relate to difficulty finding clothes, unkind glances on the High Street, etc... etc...

If you need a friends to chat with, here for you. I'm being sleeved in the Mexico on May 12th, so pre-op for a few more weeks.

Hello, I'm new here. I'm not sure where to post but I searched London and U.K. And this thread came up. Can anyone advise where I can get the chewable Calcium that tastes good and comes in chocolate n caramel flavours, like they have in the USA? And/ or any good n tasty Multivitamins and Iron chewables .

Many thanks , Sara

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
