Anyone in the UK?

[The 147]

Hello folks,

Are any of you got operations coming up in the UK? As much as I value the US guys it would be good to get a sense of how other people are getting on here.

I'm having my bypass on 12th July, so the countdown really does feel like it's begun.

Cheers,

J

The day before me Geets, good luck. I'm finding the diet is fine, it makes you quite mindful about what you eat and I think that's a skill that will come in handy.

I think the pre op diet is sensible as it puts us in mind mentally for the next stage of our journey. From the beginning when we decide to have gastric surgery,through to surgeon,dietician,nurse,consults every stage is part of our journey to prepare us for our new life. But hey after you have the surgery you're going to be in the new mode and will make adjustments as that is the only way to be. We all have different journeys but the outcome is the same. Good Luck for your op
