Hello everyone,

Not sure if anyone posts in this thread anymore- it is quite quiet!

Anyway I am Nicole, from Cranbourne and I am just starting out with this banding procedure. I am hoping to attend my first seminar next month and go from there.

I am thinking of going to The Avenue or Knox Private- they seem to be the most popular for my area.

Anyway I would love to chat with everyone

Nic

Hi all,

I'm Shell. I'm being banded by Mr Gary Crosthwaite at The Avenue, Windsor next Friday (Aug 1st).

I'm not long home from my last pre-op appointment and was rapt to jump on the scales and find out that I've lost 5.5kg in the two weeks since I was last at the clinic. That added to the 4.5kg I'd lost in the 6 weeks previous makes me an awesome 10kg lighter. I started the Optifast on July 1st although didn't need to start them til the 11th. I figured that I'd give myself a full month on them to give myself the best start to this road to the new me.

I'm not in Melbourne, but originally a Melby girl! Anyway, just butting in to say, if you can't make a get together, then why not just arrange one for when you can? Simply put up a time, day, place and everyone can turn up.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
