The Final Countdown!
Hi all... well my operation will all be done this time next week... I am starting my 6 day milk diet tommorrow! Operation next sat (12th July)... I can't wait... so excited that I am finally getting it done after years of wishing could!

I never thought someone like me would be able to qualify for surgery given that my BMI is under 40... but I wish i'd enquired years ago now!!

I can't wait.......I just hope that I can cope with the milk diet given that I hate milk and it gives me a real bad stomach!! Oh well it'll be worth it in the end!

Off to a local support group now for my first meeting, they have a 30min talk today by the obesity surgeon from the nuffield in Cheltenham so that should be interesting. I'll let you know how it all goes!

I am on the milk diet and have been told I can flavour with vanilla essence or Crusha 'no sugar' syrup. It makes such a difference. Can also use coffee, but I don't like it with no sugar!
Best of luck.

Thank you all of you for your support... I must admit I am a bit nervous now! Can't believe its actually happening tomorrow morning!! The milk diet has been awful bearing in mind i hate milk and it makes me gag! I don't ever want to drink any milk again! Although I have had some soup cuz another surgeon told me they only suggest milk & yogurt diets because some people can't work out or manage a low calorie/low fat diet which is all that is required!

I'm so excited & nervous & worried & glad!! I can't decide what I am!

:biggrin2:
