Hi all

I just wanted to tell you all that I love this forum.. I was well prepared when I went and saw my sugeon. He tried to put me off the surgey at first, saying that its not guaranteed etc etc....but after he could see that I was keen and really wanted to go ahead with the procedure, he booked me in for 23 March.....yes.....cant wait....bit nervous as I dont know how it will all go......:thumbup:

That's great you have a surgery date to look forward to, Tomjerry.

I wonder why your surgeon was hesitant at first?! Surely they'd want to help as many people as they could??

HI...your right about helping as many people as they can....maybe he just wanted to ensure that I knew what I was getting myself into and also that I was prepared.....but I am all fur it now...bring on 23 March....cant wait

You're doing a GREAT thing for yourself, good for you! I was so unsure but I really knew it was for the best. I got in really quickly and just went for it (sounds similar to you). You wont look back! There may be times you'll wonder if its working and why do it if it is still hard but those times are minute and overall, so far, I love it! Good luck for the next few weeks esp the pre op diet which is the hardest bit of all. The rest is easy!
