Thanks for responding guys, just hit the 10 day mark, actually don't mind the diet they've got me on - high Protein, no carb, no sugar. Who did your surgeries??

I am feeling fabulous... back to normal now... i had a full day outing yesterday and did a complete spring clean of the house today.. i have lots of energy and am feeling great.

Its like night and day compared to the first two weeks, i think ive finally got my routine down..

Drink.. wait... eat... wait.. drink

I baked some Breakfast egg muffins because i am trying to wean myself off my Breakfast Protein shakes.. i don't really like artificial anything.. so im starting to get a little more creative with food.... its much easier when you move to solids...

Hiya Jobey.

I also had my sleeve done on the 7th, far North Queensland.

Feeling ok but lack of energy, bit tight in the stomach and not fussed on food just yet.

How did you go?

Hey Nat

I'm doing okay, still have some pain from my 2 right side incisions and a bit of bruising. Went out for the first time today, which was nice.

Also brought some pumpkin Soup, Tomato Soup, yoghurt and juice as I'm hoping the variety will help a little. Had enough of chicken broth lol

I not really fussed with food either but am struggling when my family have dinner as I still want to sit with them for the socialness of it.

How are you doing? Oh and I've lost 13kgs so far including my 2 week pre-op diet

Hey @@Feekenstein I'm great now, first 2.5 weeks post op were the hardest but I'm now 3.5 months out and 34kg down [emoji4] I've had a pretty hard year and this surgery and how much better I feel physically and mentally are the reason I've made it this far. My surgeon was Dr Blair Bowden at The Wesley he was awesome, good bedside manner and excellent surgeon [emoji4]

Hi Brisbane Sleevers

I'm new to this scene but yet ready to begin this process !

Can someone clarify for me please, is the 'Early Release of Superannuation on Specified Compassionate Grounds Form' completed by my GP and Specialist?

Any reviews out there for Dr Reza Adib who practices at Wesley Hospital Brisbane?

Anyone had experience with QSuper and Early Release of Superannuation Funds?

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
