Hi Jude,

There is a dinner (tapas, band friendly meals) next Tuesday 8th January @ 7pm at Bar Bosh (Knox Ozone) you are most welcome to come to and meet up with other Lap Banders from Melbourne. There are other people from Berwick coming along too. The details are here:

Eastern Surgical Online

Hey Susannah - do you think you can make it on Tuesday night? I would be happy to meet you somewhere on the train line and take you home if transport is a problem for you. you have my email address email me if you like to arrange something. sounds like you are doing wonderfully.

I so want to come. Boo Hoo. I have to work in the city until 6.30 pm, and a week night is hard for me due to work etc. Weekends are good. I promise I will be at the next weekend event anywhere in Melb.

Hugs to you all.

Susannah

knox isnt all that far from you, check out the posting re dinner next tuesday on Eastern Surgical Online and also cranbourne is a nice drive on a sunday. I was also banded by Prof O Brien, was doing great but had some fill out for an o/s trip and desperately need it put back in. I have lost the plot a bit so hopefully can get back on track.

Will be there. Thanks. Email me the details.

Hi

I am in Pakenham and am looking for lapbanders in my area for coffee chat.Had lapband done in Nov 2006 but have been struggling.Today I found this site and am over the moon that there are others like me,well maybe not as mad!

Hi I am in Berwick and happy to meet for a chat. I was banded in Aug 06, had a great 12 months but been very slack of late. There are often get togethers but I am more than happy to meet. Name the time and place and I will do my best, Mondays and Wednesdays are out but other times ok

Hi Jude, I'm a neighbour, live in Narre South. We've met up before for coffee at Costello's - perhaps we could do something similar as a group.

My DH is getting banded too on June 6.

Hi Jachut -yes I remember our meet up, it was great and we should do it again. What day/time suits you? Are you still at uni this year? Mondays and Wednesdays are out for me but the other days are usually doable other than this coming Thurs - Tues, am off to the Gold Coast for a few days. I met with Michellebell this morning and we had a lovely time despite my 2 year old grandaughter needing to go to the toilet 5 ot 6 times in the short time we were at moods - the joys of toilet training!!
