oh that's great atleast mum and dad are looking after you. You gonna have to think on your feet. you lose so much the first couple of weeks! I think i had lost a stone in 4 days or something silly like that. it's totally mad. I've had abit of a stuff today. i mean after a few months you can eat alittle more. Dumping is terrible, i mean you feel like your going to die. this is one of the benifits of having the surgery. YOU CANNOT GO OVERBORD!!!...lol.

They are gonna be so jealous at work.

I've got about 7 stone to lose. Got family, well my mum and dad, as my brothers aren't that supportive they can't understand why I can't just eat less and go to the gym. A couple of close friends know and they're being great. I've not told my employers, because I've not been here that long and I think they would find it difficult to be sympathetic, so I've had to say I'm having 2 weeks off for a hernia op.

wierd how it's not really a subject we can talk about to our employers and general people we meet, there's still a massive stigma about it isn't there.

Hey, yeah, still gettihng to grips with this site! I'm having my surgery up in Manchester at the Alexandra Hospital through the healthier weight centre.

I got to say you look great in your latest pics!

Hi Peaches, I'm roo..... Just about to have my bypass in September, I'm new to bypas surgery but had a gastric band fitted in London a year and a bit ago but messed it up....so this time round I'm hoping to speak to other people who are in a similar situation and get through it all together. so yeah, count me in!
