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.

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.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
