Hi guys!
I'm very new to all this!
I'm currently 89kgs at a height of 165- BMI 32
I'm entitled to the sleeve!
My paternal grandmother had it done about 5years ago and went from 140kgs to approx 79! And she's advised me to have the surgery also to avoid all the crap she had to deal with in regards to dieting and programs etc. I've fluctuated with my weight for many years and was always a chubby girl.
Went through a stage where I got up to 96kgs then killed myself dieting and gymming it 6 days a week for approx 4 months. I got down to 74kgs.
Unfortunately I cut down going to the gym by 3 days and kept dieting, and put on 12 kgs within 2 months!!!!!!
Have put on a few kgs since then, but just always disappointed when the weight doesn't come off after watching what I eat.. S I've decided to do the sleeve..
My massive question is... Does anyone know what the go is with accessing early super in Aussie??
I spoke with my surgeons secretary, she told me my BMI had to be at least 45 and I'd have to pay it back with an interest rate of 28%!!!!!
Does anyone know if this is true?
Thanks guys
