  1. There is a fantastic trainer in Sydney who has helped a couple of my friends who have had the surgery lose weight and motivate them. One friend has lost 30kgs and has toned up a lot since being trained by him and the other friend has lost 21kgs. So far since training with him for a month I've lost 8 kgs as well as inches. I feel so motivated not just because I'm losing weight and feeling fit but because seeing him is a motivation in itself. He has also had the surgery and has lost a massive 84kgs. Seeing how far he's come gives me the drive to push myself. Not only has he been great in helping me tone and get fit but he's great on the emotional and motivational side because he's been there done that. I would seriously recommend anyone in Sydney to at least give him a go. Contact me if you would like his details.
  2. To anyone in Sydney who has got the band I suggest you contact me!! There is a fantastic trainer who has helped a couple of my friends who have had the surgery lose weight and motivate them. One friend has lost 30kgs and has toned up a lot since being trained by him and the other friend has lost 21kgs. The only reason why I even considered trying him out was after I saw the awesome results my friends got. The best thing is he can relate to us because he himself had the surgery and has lost a massive 84kgs. I find that not only has he been great in helping me tone and get fit but he's great on the emotional and motivational side because he's been there done that. I would seriously recommend anyone in Sydney to at least give him a try. Contact me if you would like his details. The band is good to help you cut down ur appetite but exercise makes the most difference.

  4. I finally got banded on Tuesday 16th December and was discharged the afternoon afternoon after. I gotta tell you that first day was really painful but I think it also has to do with the factor that my doctor repaired my hietus hernia. I'm still very sore which is natural but I think the worst is behind me. I lost 16lbs on my pre op diet and I'm hoping I can drop more over the next couple of weeks. I am offically a bandit!
  5. after almost 2 weeks of fasting its almost time for me to get banded. my op is on tuesday morning and im counting down the days. i haven't weighed myself since last monday and when i was weighed i lost 6kgs (approx 12lbs) in 6days. im hoping by now i would've lost another 4-6kgs (approx 8-12lbs). can anyone give me any advice on what to expect when i wake up from the op? also how long after the op were u able to start drinking alcohol?
  6. my op is 16th December. im on day 4 of my pre op diet.
  7. how come some people have to fast 2 weeks and others have to fast 1 week or 1 day?
  8. did you do that 4 1 week or 2 weeks?
  9. thanks for your responses. just another question regarding the 2 week diet. did you both just drink the shakes and water? or did you also have 2 cups of low starch vegetables as well?
  10. hi all, i'll be starting my 2 week liquid Optifast diet. has anyone here been on it and if so how much weight did you lose in those 2 weeks before the op?
  11. thank you for the info and congratulations on ur weight loss
  12. hi all, i'm really interested in getting the lap band surgery. i wanted to get feedback from people who have actually got the surgery to see how painful it is, how much you have lost in how much time etc. if you could let me know it would be much appreciated as i'm thinking of getting it done really soon.
