  • hi girl, your right...its your body its your choice, good for you!!,sticking to your guns

  • You are so right, it was time to stop thinking about other people and think about myself for once. Its the best decision i have made for myself and dont regret a second of it. :-)

  • What a strong woman you are! Good for you to stand up for what you wanted and go to another consultant. A doctor is a medical consultant, and it is up to you to take their advice or not. It is excellent that you didn't take the advice of the first doctor, and went to someone else. Congratulations on your commitment. I look forward to continuing to follow your vlogs!

  • Hey hun!!

    Thank you so much! The doctor was just an ediot....and the thing that gets me is...in other parts of the city people with my BMI and higer are getting done! But im happy with the choice i made and so glad i decided to go private. Thanks again for your lovely msg xxx

  • Let me know how your surgery went.... I'm on the NHS waiting list for gastric bypass.... Keep in touch - Angela
