Hello everyone! I'm booked in for my op on October 10. I've received approval for early release of my super. Congratulations to those who have reached or are close to their goal. I live in Brisbane.

Welcome and congrats on your approval. Who's doing your surgery and where? I am in Brisbane too and live at The Gap.

I'm having it done at the Wesley by Dr Blair Bowden. I've noticed I have the same dietitian as you. I've only seen Di once and was impressed by her.

Yes she is great and really understands the needs of people with sleeves. I am seeing her every second month now until I reach goal and am comfortable with maintenance. I wish I had been with Di since the beginnng.

Ahh so my big day has finally arrived. I've been awake since 2am, the nerves have definitely kicked in.

Skubidz welcome to the thread or the sleeve family.

As the others have said there is a lot of information around and between the lot of us, we have experienced almost everything.

I am now 5 days post my tummy tuck and arm lift, and doing well. Still in hospital with 4 drains which is driving me stir crazy, and have had some horrible nausea for the last few days due to pain meds and being backed up, hopefully the backed up part is moving now.

Hard to really see my body at the moment, it is all very bruised and swollen but will eventually know how it will look. Tho I do enjoy putting on underwear without my belly over hanging, the thing I have hated the most.

This is a bit of a newby question but how do I add photos off my iPhone :-)
