    First of I'm very sorry Butterfly I haven't seeing your reply before. I hope the surgery went well and that you are losing safe and sound. An update in my process Last Oct I had my mdt I was seeing by a nurse, a dietitian and the surgeon. They three agreed the best for me was surgery and bypass. Then later november I receive another two letter one for an appointment on the 9th Jan with the anaesthetist and one for a dietitian on the 27th Jan. The anaesthetist gave me the good to go and told me I could call the secretary about a date so I called and she said it wouldn't be before May...Now I got very desappointed that it would still be that far...I can't believe it's going to take another 4 months. Then I breathe and accept...oh well at least I'm having the surgery I suppose. I'm trying to look at bright side. But to be honest the thing is that my life is kinda on hold waiting for the surgery and everyday I feel like I'm waiting to start my life whilist my life is passing...don't get me wrong I still work and go to college but it's just that it should be by March but now is May...but I can't really plan anything because it could also not be may...anyways...thinking positive... it will be May!!

      not a problem. Just follow the pre-op diet early. My pre-op diet was set to last 9 days. I lost 4 lbs during that time. You can do this.

      Yeah I thought about that. I think I will start after Chistmas it will give me exactly 2 weeks. :)

      Besides the protein shakes, I had the pre-made pudding, unsweetened applesauce. I was allowed 1/2c. oatmeal in the morning. I didn't find it hard AT ALL (I was surprised hearing so much on Bariatric Pal). The protein shakes really satisfy hunger. Also, I found that the flavorings really help so you can make the flavors different. I use UNJURY because it's 100% protein isolate (most absorbable protein) AND the taste wasn't medicinal. Best of luck!

  3. I have received this letter with information and forms and blood test. Anyone else receive it too? The letter is from the bariatric team of Portsmouth hospital. I have an appointment with them and will be assessment if I pass it I'll have the surgery. Anyone knows what the criteria are? .
