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

Weeeeeeeeell... 25KGS DOWN! Haha finally got under 80. 79kg on the dot! Feels good to get out of one set of numbers and into another :)

Yay nerms Congrats wonderful news!!!! ????????????????????????

I had my gastronomy yesterday I just got the all clear my date is confirmed for 9th of Feb!!!! Thank god now I can start the countdown!!! Can't wait to be on the other side!!! ????????????????

@@Bellarose100 how exciting!!!!! It will come by so quickly!

@@nerms I hope so! I spent the whole day stressing waiting for my results and if he was happy to go ahead!!! Thank god the call was good news!!! ????????

I'm stuck with instant noodles for the next 7 days.. I will be so angry if I gain anything. There's not much you can do when you only have $20 and need cat food too! :(

So tight with cash it's crazy, thinking about staying with my mum for a week or two once I get paid, she might be able to feed me in exchange for some baby sitting. :P

Oh nerm that is just terrible!! Do you work hun??

Haha I'll be right, it's not the first time! It's just the calories in them that freak me out a bit.

I quit at the end of the year, boss was a nutcase and I couldn't handle the way she treated the dogs and customers. I would tell her not to lift a dog by the collar on to the grooming table but she would just have a go at me... Happy to be out of there!

Oh god what a nasty lady to do that poor doggies! The owners wouldn't be to happy to hear about that!!

What a nutter you don't need a boss like that hun I hope you find a much better boss in your next job!!

Happy to slip you a 20 if that would help you huni ????

They get a lot of complaints, I'm surprised they're even still running that business!!

And thank you ???? my boyfriend is coming tomorrow for a few days so I'll make him buy me some chicken and asparagus!

Ok glad to hear your boyfriend is coming to look after you!

Hhhmm not a good business they are running!

Hey guys......Happy New Year to you all

I have been away and only just gotten home....wish I was still away but there you go and back to reality

@@nerms LOVE the tatt....just gorgeous!!!!

Way to go losing over the Summer break

@@Bellarose100 So excited for you to finally have your date....not long now.

I haven't lost anything at all so I am a bit disappointed but not surprised.

I think that I drank a lot of calories and wasn't as active.

Being away you eat a lot of foods that you don't at home and way too many carbs so at least I haven't gained.

Better get moving again to get this weight off as I don't like stalling.

I can't remember if I mentioned it but I have a new job starting when the kids go back to school

Starting at Subwey....so excited for this year

I haven't been out to work for the longest time and we so desperately need the money so looking forward to it

@@steveelea holidays are meant to be enjoyed! As long you had a good time and get back on track all will be good!

And happy new year to you too :D

I think everyone has come to a stand still over the last couple weeks, on another forum everyone has stayed at the same weight or gained this week, maybe it's the lovely melbourne weather...

I'm stuck on 79 at the moment but not too worried as I've been eating pretty crap. My birthday is in 10 weeks so hopefully 10kgs fall of me in that time!

I've booked a venue, this wil be my first birthday party EVER.. Like an actual party not just family and cake. So I'm looking forward to it!

My mum got out of hospital yesterday, surgery was a success and all is well! They kept her in two extra days because she wasn't getting down enough fluids, she's still struggling with it but she's getting more down.

Yes it's like winter not summer!!!

How exciting how old are you turning??

My eldest turns 21 this year in April so I have to start organizing his party very soon....have no idea what to do but he didn't have an 18th so it has to be big!!!!

What did your mum get done again was it bypass??

Glad to hear she is on the improve :)

I'm turning 21 too :)

And yeah she got the bypass! Sometimes I wish I got the sleeve -.-
