I am a stay at home Mum married to Alan my lovely Michigan hubby... I have to lose about 10 stone :frown: I am new to all this and would like for someone please to help me avoid all those pitfalls and to guide me to success please. My hobby is going to America and visiting Disneyworld! Yay! Been 4 times and going again in 2009. I do have a goal this year though... I want to be able to fit into a plane seat comfortably because I have three weeks in Mexico coming up in September... so I have/want to do this. Thank you for reading XXXXXX Helen X BTW I forgot to say... I am 45 years young!:biggrin:

Hi -

I would be happy to help but it may be difficult if you are having the surgery in the UK. I suspect that their approach/policies will be quite different than here the United States. Medically, it should be quite similar, but, you know, after reading some of the posts here in the States, it is also being done differently.

Incidently what is 10 stone? Can you put that in either pounds or in metrics? Live and learn!

Do you have a surgery date?

Thank you for replying. I am recovering from my non op :cursing: I went for surgery on Friday morning and they discovered my liver is too big, even though I was on a low carb high Protein diet beforehand. Will get back to you again at the moment I have to rush off and joy of joys get my slimfast drink ready... it's my only highlight of the day right now... lol...
