  1. Hi mike in from kwinana, I was banded 24 June and have lost 27kgs so far! Hoping to get down to 35kgs lost by the end of this year!
  2. Yup that was and still is my problem! Love rpg's of any kind!
  3. My doc said this could happen, um not sure how it works though! I'm secretly waiting for my 4th fill to finally kick in and do something. :smile2:
  4. Got a new work shirt this morning coz the other one started to look like a dress! So now I'm 2xl instead of 3xl and the 2xl is still a bit baggy! :smile2:
  5. Lemon it means non scale victory, things you notice about yourself during weight loss
  6. I grew up in Johannesburg, South Africa. I now live in perth Australia. I work in retail but am studying to become an Enrolled Nurse. :thumbup:
  7. Oh dear! I remember those pains! But like others have said, walking seriously helps. I used to walk at night, 1 coz I was suffering head aches too and there was no light at night, and 2 because its so much cooler at night! Just get up and get moving and the gas will pass! Quite literally! Haha! Good luck!
  8. Why did the other doctor not view you as a candidate?
  9. I would like to know this too, thanks for asking
  10. Sadly if it hangs it will stay hanging
  11. I can't call my doc I'm in Australia and its already Saturday. And bonu haven't been doing crunches lol
  12. I was banded June 24, I've healed well, lost 30 pounds and eat reasonably well. The thing is this morning I woke up with this ACHE where my port is. Hurts all the time and hurts more if I cough. So my question is, should I go to the hospital or tough it out? Thanks in advance for any replies!
  13. Hi I'm 23 from kwinana in perth. I've only been banded a month but I would love to be your friend
  14. My incisions are all healed up except one has like a little bubble in it, could just be the way it scared...
  15. I'm feeling hot and then cold, have an itchy throat with a dry cough, um shaking every now and then and some discomfort in my stomach
  16. I befriended this girl who was shy and quiet, we became best friends and spent all our time together and then she some how got popular, and now (in her words exactly) she's too embarrassed to be seen with me.
  17. I eat 2 meals a day just due to how busy my work is!
  18. When I can eat in public without thinking that everyone is judging me!
  19. I'm feeling the same thing too and I am not on the next phase nor did I cheat or push myself! It feels like I've swallowed a pill or a hair and its stuck in my throat! Oh and I've also been banded for 2 weeks, so maybe it is normal? All the best with your band!
  20. Dr Stephen Watson! :smile:
  21. I only hurt for about 3 days and 5 days after surgery went back to work, with the help of some mild painkillers of coarse! It depends on the person! Just like every other aspect of the band!
  22. Well I know its pretty early to be posting this, but after my surgery 2 weeks ago I lost 15lbs and now the scale won't move! I'm eating the same and walking the same but nothing! I'm getting in 50grams of protein and 800 cals a day
