Australia - Melbourne

Hi Everyone

I am from Melbourne and am starting a support group.

Sometimes you can feel alone not knowing many or any other people that have had weight loss surgery, and there are always so many questions that we have and support that we need.

Sometimes it helps just to talk to someone that can relate to you

I would love to hear from others in Melbourne, Victoria that are interested in this support group.

Hope to hear from you soon

Leanne

I had my surgery yesterday. I feel like death. Was feeling better until they gave me an ice cube then I started vomiting and now in pain. I called for the nurse, bit she didn't speak English so she left to get someone who does and hasn't come back yet. :-(
