Im in Wiltshire. If you want someone local you could ask via your surgeon if you could be put in touch with others who are having the surgery at the same time or if anyone has volunteered to be a support for others.

Best wishes for the surgery and recovery! Not long now

That's good to know ????. How are feeling now? How long ago did you have your surgery?

I went to the UK forum and looks like no one has written on it since 2014.

I'm feeling good, thanks, it'll be a year next Saturday for me and I have to tell you honestly it has been an amazing year so much has changed it's pretty unreal - I've been lucky I've had an uneventful journey, I've had a few bad days physically and emotionally but I will say without a shadow of a doubt I have no regrets and would do it again in a heartbeat. I'm excited for you to start your journey, keep in touch and let us know how you're getting on

I'm looking forward to losing the weight but also being healthy. Can't wait for the NSV as well. 8 days til surgery and 11lbs down so far on the pre-op diet!! ????

Hi there! Find it odd that it appears that no one has posted on the UK forum since 2014. I have, and so have loads of others. Hmmmmmm? Bit of a puzzle there. Anyway, I'm not in Cambridge (although I stayed the night there this time last year and loved being back there) but I have had gastric sleeve surgery. I went to Belgium in October last year and I haven't had even the teeniest moment of regret. I am loving every minute of my journey. I love wearing clothes that look like clothes as opposed to family sized tents. I love my level of fitness. My dogs can't believe their luck at their five mile daily walks. I can't believe that I can walk that far with such ease! I'm an ex-dancer and I did my first ballet class for 25 years on my 60th birthday a couple of weeks ago. Yes, I suffered for a couple of days afterwards but I was back for more the other day. This time a swim straight afterwards has really helped. Could I have done all this without having my sleeve done? Nope. I could no more have lugged the weight of eight medium sized new born human babies around with me whilst I was exercising than fly to the moon. I am a very happy sleever and can't recommend this type of surgery highly enough. I had been on the diet misery-go-round for most of my adult life and at long last I have found the answer to my prayers.

Can you post the UK forum because when I looked the only one I found was UK sleevers and not many responses
