Perth is the capital of Western Australia. I'm in Sydney, so no help for you at the moment, but I'm actually looking into moving to Albany sometime this year.

There is a couple users from wa I think

One is Kazza wa, I think another is Seth, you might try looking through the other Aussie threads and by reading you can mostly work out where they are from. Then just private message and invite them to chat in your thread :-)

Hi Sunette

Yes so far so good, op went ok. I am stil on the liquid but transitioning to the soft fod stage which hasn't been too good but I am taking the gret advice from this site & now am starting to recoginze the signs but I will get it all eventually. The great thing is have lost 10 k since surgery. It's a huge learning experience, went to the shops with my friend today, I ordered a smoothie & looked at all the food & sort of wished I could have some but was not even hungry, I then went to check out all the lovely clothes I will be able to buy soon........yeah !!!

Have you had your op yet ? I am a newbie too but we can help & support each other if you want. I am in Jane Brook, where are you?

Hi Sunette,

I am 10 days away from surgery and having it done by Dr Yong at Joondalup Hospital. I'm just hoping the nurses strike doesn't put the op back!!!!!

Are you done/being done??? Happy to help in any way. I am half way through Optifast preparation pre-surgery and doing quite well.

Hi no I am very very new. Haven't even seen the surgeon yet. Will see him next week. Hopefully I won't have to wait to long for surgery date. Good luck to those that is having your op done in the next few days. I hope it will all go well and I soooo envy you. If your op is scheduled to be in the public sector you might be affected by the nurses striking at the moment. The private hospitals are not striking so all good there. Please keep on telling me/ us how you are going.

Hello I just joined here today but I'm a perthite being sleeved on the 16th of April by the fabulous dr Alan Thomas at SJOG.

Who are you going to see?

There is also a secret Sleevers group on Facebook and we have a perth meet up in a few weeks if you'd like to come along and meet others on the journey :)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
