I've just joined this forum.

I'm from the Canberra area.

I was sleeved by Dr Mosse in late Feb.

I'm happy to answer questions or talk stuff through if anyone feels the need.

  • KindaFamiliar - would love to get your insight .... I have a bazillion questions - due to be sleeved by Dr Mosse on Tuesday.
  • Would love to know things that you wished you would know - how your recovery was, and what the process was and OMG too many questions?

    Are you on the Berra Losers onFB?

Hey Shellie..

Good luck with your sleeve..
You're in great hands with Dr Mosse. He looked after me really well. I've nothing bad to say about him.

I was done on Feb 25 (Wednesday) and was out of hospital on the Saturday morning. My recovery was virtually pain free. I gave the pain killers a bit of a work out on the Wed afternoon and the Thursday but was pretty much pain free by the Thursday afternoon.

You say you've plenty of questions...
Feel free to PM me any time...

I'll answer anything you can throw at me...

I can't help with the fb group but id like to say i was sleeved on 25 March and am down 23kgs to date. Feeling wonderful! I do go to the gym 4 times a week and some weeks dont see any change on the scale. This week ive had almost a 3kg loss. Best decision ive ever made. Half way there!!

Hi everyone,

I saw Dr Mosse on Friday (26/6/15) and he approved me for surgery on the 5th of August. I'm from Canberra.

Hey,

Maybe we met, I was at Dr Mosse's office that morning too, as was Chiaria. My surgery's on the 5th of August! We should definitely organise a support group :) Message me anytime.

Sure :) I'm happy to meet up for a coffee or something sometime

Hey Pure Darkness,

I spoke with two ladies while I was waiting an hour to see Dr Mosse- one lady who was being sleeved in July sometime and another who was there with her grandson, she was sleeved 12 months ago and had lost 38kgs. The only other people I remember from the waiting room was a lady in her 20s maybe with an older lady with her (maybe her mum) and I think she had already been sleeved. What time were you girls there? ☺
