Hi Linda and Everyone,

My name is Marg, I live in the Ballart area, and I had my Band done on the 13 June. I think its really great to see you have started a support group I would love to be involved.

From the looks of it, I cant make the lunch youre having together this month But Id love to come along to the next one if possible.

Anyway, would really like to be there if no one has any objections.

Who is the best person to talk to?

Hello to all in Ballarat
I am looking for an exercise buddy - I enjoy walking and would love to have someone to help inspire me to action. As I work fulltime my exercise times are early morning, late evening and weekends. I presently walk at a medium pace and have a reasonable level of fitness. Live in central Ballarat. I am being banded early August.
I can be emailed at sue_wool@hotmail.com
Cheers
Sue

Hi Alison, that is great news. I think if you do intensive opti for a month before the surgery, you can't go wrong. I have never done opti so can't comment on the amount you will lose but it all helps. You should have a lovely liver anyway.

Hi Girls,

So happy that you finally have dates to aim for! Allison, I really believe if you just do the best you can with the Opti and not put too much pressure on yourself, you will have the greatest results. j

Hello everyone

I have finally got a date!!!!! The 16th October is B-Day LOL
Now I have to get everything else ready.

I have decided that I will need to do a month of optifast to lose the weight he has asked me too! So I will be starting mid September. I will be using it to replace all 3 meals. Does anyone have any opinions if this will be enough time to lose the 10 - 15 kilos he wants me to?

thanks

Allison

Hi Claude,

So sorry to hear of your bad experience! We tend to forget at times that there is a very small percentage of problems that do occur and what bad luck that one of OUR buddies has to be in that percentage. Anyway, onwards and upwards, given time I'm sure you'll being flying along just fine.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your kind words. I have come to terms with it, and actually have lost a few more. But with what everyone is saying, im really concerned about getting a date to get the port put back in. Dr D said 2 months. I hope I dont have to go through what you guys are, just to get an appointment!!
Anyway, I wont commit yet but I hope to be able to come to lunch this time... Third time lucky!

Wasn't me who suggested it, although I have been there before and didn't mind it. I just like trying different places - especially with an empty and broken band LOL

Sorry Claudette, I missed your post - that's awful. Keep your chin up.
I had to have all of my fill out because of my reflux and there's no point getting anymore put in until the associated problems are fixed up - I've put on 2kgs!! My fault, I've eaten too much, but I'm also gyming it 6 days a bl.oody week - imagine how bad the damage would be without that! I guess we just have to think that at least its going to be fixed and we can start dropping again.
Cheers
Jo.
