Hi everyone,
I just got my referral letter for a telephone appointment in a month's time having been referred at the start of the year.
My problem is that my BMI was 33 (had loat over 40lb to get there) when I was referred. I have had the most stressful few months, managing two uncovered maternity leaves within my team, and my BMI is almost 35 having gained 12lb back. I'm so distressed because I have just really struggled to manage my weight through this stress and I am so consumed by guilt and self-loathing.
I am so afraid that having this appointment with my current BMI will send me to the back of the waiting list again. Does anyone have any experience with this? Will they give me a time period to get under BMI 30? Or will it be a case of seeking re-referral?
