Katie to Sandra Jo.
Not half hun ! I have had it done twice because the first failed and my fantastic surgeon didnt stitch it right! It is a VERY PAINFUL procedure and do NOT let anyone EVER tell you ANY DIFFERENT. 9 months on I am still in forever pain with constant trips to the hospital for wretching (blue wicked by passes it though) and loss of blood from the lining of my stomach.
NOTHING However, in this life that is worthwhile is EASY and I have lost 10 stones in 9 months with just 2 more to go.
Last year I could not walk without the aid of crutches, this year I have just started training for RUN FOR LIFE in mem of my childhood friend who died last year.
I hope I dont get banned from doing it though. I shall have to turn up sober (see where have you been banned from thread lol).
It has however improved my career, I work in Media Purchasing and am now a guest speaker for a large radio station on a programme similar to LADIES AT LUNCH.
