klette0147 91 Posted December 12, 2016 I don't think so? From my initial consultation with Mr Gibson he instructed me to lose 5 kilos. During the same period, I had to consult with a dietician and Psychologist (again, all private) and this all over a period of about 10 weeks. Finally, green light for surgery, preceded by 2 week liver shrinkage diet. Sent from my SM-T550 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my SM-T550 using the BariatricPal App Ah gotcha, can't afford private but I'm doing NHS GCC weight programme again (6x lucky!) Got a 4 week trial diet to do then in January for 4 dates we have classes to do and then surgeon appointment. That's after near 15 months of work already. ????

klette0147 91 Posted December 13, 2016 Good luck with that. I could only afford cos my husband drew down cash from his pension! But overall process was, thankfully, quite quick. Sent from my SM-T550 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
