    Wish I got this soon.

    This should be a standardised text and should be automatically sent when the decision has been made to have the surgery.

    I had lots of contact with my dietian but I feel like they weren’t giving the answers I was looking for. This was the answer to a lot of my questions. Touching on nearly every facet of getting to, during and post gastric surgery experience.
