  17. Hey and welcome:) Who is your surgeon?
  18. yes your right...i think i have said this a few times.lol...that i didnt have to do optifast....not everyone requires to do it....it depends on your BMI.... Dr Nottle is great i really think he knows what hes talking about and doing
  19. no pre-op for me which means no optifast
  20. Reductil is great it works better than duromine and doesnt keep you awake all night or bouncing off walls...LOL
  21. GEE.....my surgeons fee was $2,500 i then went to claim $700 back ...$500 came from medicare and the other $200 from my health insurance. I dont see why you shouldnt be able to do the same. I think theres a thread here in australia that states what others have paid, have a look through:)
  22. Hi......yes i had to pay $2,500 out of pocket and then $550 to the anesthesist I went to medicare and got $700 back out of that 2500 so after everything i was out of pocket around $2,200....fills are free
  23. Bronnie....your 100% right there....Peter doesnt require you to go to an info evening as he only holds about 1 or 2 a year...he has his own website that he tells you to read up on and to me thats good enuf as we do alot of searching about it on the net anyway:)
  24. What a great weight loss you have in 6 months...thats great....keep up the great work:) A fill for me can last maybe 2 months...im due next month to have another one as i feel like my weight has now come to a stop
