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

So good to hear Bella :)

You'll feel better soon!

Hi ladies

Was feeling heaps better this morning been doing laps of the ward had a shower and in my comfy PJ's now

Just been having panadol just on Water still I have a swallow test tomorrow and hope to get out Thursday!

I can't wait to have some Soup feeling a little hungry now!

Just had my swallow test waiting on my results! I wanna go home!!

Hope all went well with the barium swallow!

I was opposite, I wanted to stay in longer. I was pissed off that I had to go home the next day haha, I tried to stay another day but they wouldn't have it.

Nerms was you in St Vincent's?

They are hard core with making sure all is ok I will only be allowed to go Friday if I can drink a litre plus on my own!! My husband is pissed off he wants me home not that I would be doing much at home!

Hey Bella, I was in there for 5 days but I was in intensive care for a little. Best to stay in. Believe me they will want you to leave asap. I know it can be frustrating but you've just had most of yours stomach removed. Best to be where you are right now ???? it gets better with each day xxx

Thanks chez I know your right just getting the added pressure from my husband that I don't need right now!

Simon said Friday morning so the husband will have to just suck it up!! Drip comes out tomorrow can't wait for that!

How is everyone else doing its been really quiet I hope everyone is going well ????

I was in Knox city private.

I'm going ok, only lost 1kg that I gained and that's taken me 3 weeks. Feeling a bit deflated. Very frustrated because I want to do shakes but I just can't commit to it anymore.

Any advice on how to break up with someone? I don't have time for idiocy. He hasn't messaged me in over a week, I drove to and from Sydney and didn't even get a "drive safely". We've been together for 3 years and quite frankly I'm sick of him and have been thinking about this for a while now!! Breaking up in person will just make him cry and that will aggravate me. Breaking up over message is heartless.. It's confusing.

I'm 4kgs away from losing 30kg, why am I not motivated!!! Maybe I need to dump his ass and that will push me back into it!
