Married and living in West London, I was born in Australia.

No kids, no pets, just me and the Hussyband living with the Mother-in-Law, but we are heading up to Liverpool early next year to start anew somewhere you can buy a house without going into debt for the rest of your natural life.

I have been thinking about having weight loss surgery for a long time - way before I met my beloved Hussyband. A friend in Tasmania had it and it worked wonders for her. But I wasn't ready then. I was having way too much fun being the happy drunken party girl. Yes I was big - but it never stopped me from having fun, and by having fun I mean picking up lots of strange men for gratuitous fun of course! Think Trainwreck - I know when I saw it last week I thought that it was a biographical movie of my 20's and early 30's!

I am blogging my journey together with pics, videos and recipes as I go. It can be found at http://aussiefoodiesjourney.blogspot.co.uk/

Hope you will check it out. It is a big step we are taking, but whilst it is hard, it would be harder to stay the way we are now.

Much love,

Elisa

@@Shotochick Every time I read the word "Hussyband" it made me laugh! Now I have to go back and re-read.

The fabulous thing is every time I see my Hussyband he makes ME laugh as well!

New blog post up - Self Love

Glad I found your blog. I'm having my sleeve done on the 26th October. I feel like I have found a new tribe.

It is amazing the support all of us sleevers give each other For some the support they get on the forums is more than they get from friends and family - I am lucky, very very lucky. My husband is 100% behind me, and I am out of the closet to friends and family which is making socialising much easier. Less than a week for you - how are you feeling?

Love the blog!! ????

I'm not doing too bad although I did try to eat Optifast Soup for the second time today...will not be trying a third! It repeated on me all day and made me feel quite sick. I'm on the down hill run to surgery. Bring it on.
