Hi Everyone, I am new to this forum. I have previously had lap band surgery with no success, in fact it went pear shaped.. much like myself!. So after some serious consideration... I have decided my life has a long way to go... and Gastric Sleeving it is. ! I am taking a step into my NEW future on 12th November.. 2 weeks from tomorrow.. Feeling somewhat nervous but at the same time.. extremely excited with what will be a NEW ME! I plan on being around for a long time after this operation.. to enjoy my gorgeous Granddaughter (16weeks today) and my Husband and Family... [...]

I am having my surgery in Melbourne Australia...

I USE to suffer with this' date=' I actually found a natural recipe that has worked for me. Mix a 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda with a 1/2 cup of apple cider vinegar (Raw-unfilterd, I got from The Vitamin Shop). Let the fizz go down all the way and then all a 1/2 cup of Water and then drink. Sounds ridiculous...but it works for me. I got tired of going back and forth to my GYN (paying a co-fee) and the pharmacy (another co-pay) and the problem would return. I haven’t been back since! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />[/quote']
