hi whoooosh if i remember my doc suggest to me in july/aug to have lapband fitted 4 weeks for me to make up my mind if i wanted it. he reffered me in sept got my appt for 1st time at derby in nov 08 didnt here anything until end of april this year that was having op. didnt even no i was on the list.!!! but i do have a spine problem thats y had op. had my spine straightened out last year (curved spine) aparantly it looked like a fish hook at base of spine.ouch!!!!!!!!!!!!! and hips out now that is painful having them pushed back in place... I dont know if thats why i wasnt waiting long or not. but they did tell me that the waiting time is 6 months there. which is good i thought a lot of plp on here wait years bless them xx I cant belive i had it done 2 weeks ago!!! i thought i cant do 4 weeks liquid diet and im halfway there already. Ann sorry its long answer.xx 1 last thing i lost 9 and 1/2 lbs in ten days when i went to sliming class on tue:thumbup:

hi I would get it checked out to be on the safe side. I had my op done 8 days ago and mine are fine not had no probs. at all. infact they are now starting to fall of the scabs that is. and the weight is as well lol lost 12 lbs since op whayhay:w00t: hope everything turns out ok for you Ann x

hi i was in the same boat as you lost weight on my own up un til surgery i wasnt having it done. but i have 1 week to the hour lol about a month b4 due to go in i started drinking and eating at seperate times as i always had to have a drink with food. from being a child was always told to wash it down with drink soz for waffling lol i weighed my self 5 days after op and have lost 6lbs and i was wearing jeans and shoes.:thumbup: so i think its been worth it! just keep saying to myself by xmas i might be 4 or 5 stone lighter now that would be a great feeling.:biggrin2: all the best in what you decide to do love Ann:tt1:

good luck from me to. when i had my op done they couldnt belive how small my liver was lol. told them id stuck to diet.also had been cutting down since nov last year. they said was only intrested in the 2 week pr-op diet. but i still proved then wrong lol had my op on 30-5-08 and feel good didnt think i would. as im a whimp lol good luck again:thumbup: Annx

good luck.:eek: you'll be fine had mine done 4 days ago and feel fine:wink_smile: Ann:wub:
