Hi, I just want to say I'm so happy to have found this forum. I've got my consultation on Mar 22nd and all going well I'll have the operation on Mar 27th. The postings here have been a great help and I know I'm doing the right thing! I'm 5ft 6in, weigh 19st 10lb, bmi is 44.5. I've been eating healthily since Mar 1st to make sure I can do it afterwards. I'm 44 and really want a second chance of good health.
