Attention ! Australian Sleevers

LOL that's them! My packet didn't have a smell but I gave it a really good rinse (several minutes lol) and then just ran the boiling Water over it. It was really nice but as I said, so filling!! I'd recommend them for sure!

Lol,

Even my OAO couldn't get in my super greens powder, was disappointed :( now I'm on the hunt thru health stores for a similar algae/spirulina/chlorella and wheat grass/barley mix super vegie type power food powder thingy...

How's that for a futile fight?! Lol :D

hi aussies, im lying here in my hospital bed after being sleeved friday, I feel alot better today except for the gas pains. Hopefully these will subside soon enough. Its good to have the worst of it out of the way & to be able to look towards a healthier future. Anyone with questions I will answer as truthful as I can. Just want to wish all my fellow aussie sleevers all the best in your journeys you all can do this!! xx

To all Brissy / Gold Coast Sleevers, let's arrange a meet-up on Saturday 6 October at either Roma Street Parklands or South Bank. I personally love South Bank as I will take my children swimming after and there are great restaurants like Kapsali's or even just a cafe - we can discuss what your preferences are and decide on a suitable location but let's lock in 6/10 @ 1pm in your diaries.

We should look at getting together every 2 months or so, on 1st Saturday of the month where we can see our little group expanding over time and be here to support one another. I love hearing and seeing everyone's progress (and exciting for Beth getting closer to her surgery)

Let me know your thoughts :)

Lily, that is great - I can't wait to reach double digits!!! If I got no lower than 99 I would be over the moon just to be under the 100

Good on you

That's a great idea shellz, I an in for that day. So is it ok to bring kids, as my husband does night shift and sleeps during the day. Won't know his shift until closer to the time but I may have my 2yo with me.

Great idea to take them swimming. Could make a day of it and take him in early. Then meet up with the group. I am in, will put it in my calendar.

It's so nice to see it going down. I started at morbidly obese, now at obese so love it. Hopefully you will just be overweight in no time at all:)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
