Well I'm already out for dinner on Monday night so I am not that fussed at going out on Tuesday night as well. Maybe we should just make it for after Christmas. If anyone seriously wants to catch up before christmas put a date up and see what response you get.

hi Ally
Yes my fill was fine - I definately have restriction this time - hopefully it will settle down over the next few days - need to eat standing up at the moment and definately be very very careful - if it is like previous fills then it should settle. I too was pretty diappointed with the weight loss - only .4 of a kg in a month - not good - but better than putting on.
Weird though - have gone down a clothes size during that time and my butt is definately shrinking with the walking. Obviously my body is doing a big readjustment hopefully will start moving again soon!
Hope everyone else is travelling okay - so where are we at re a prexmas get together?

Hello everyone

Well another disappointment! It seems I have a haematoma where the port is so I have to wait even longer to be able to get a fill! The lump that I have been able to feel since the surgery is the haematoma not the port LOL Although it has definitely decreased in the last 3 weeks as it use to stick out and could be noticed under my t-shirts (well I certainly thought it could be LOL).

Not a good time to be able to "eat" over the christmas period! Dr D said he would see me after the new year but I think he realised how upset I was (wanted to cry) so I go back on Dec 22nd to see if I can get a fill!

But the good news was that even though I have been eating pretty much normally I had not put on any weight - in fact I was exactly the same to the gram lol so I guess I should be happy about that!

I hope your fill was more successful then mine, Annie? I also had no idea what Leckers was so I had to look it up - I think Jo meant Cafe Lekkers which sounded nice from what I read.

Hello everyone

I hope you're all doing well. I have my first fill on Monday YAY - cant wait to get to restriction! Hopefully it wont take too long.

I am happy to catch up before Xmas - I havent been for ages but during the day was just too difficult to do working fulltime. I can make it any night now though.

Hi Marg, Helen has rung me a few times about it. I guess people aren't interested. If that is the case is there any interest in a get together before Christmas?

Hi Linda,
I have just had an e-mail from Helen Re Seminar and she tells me I am the only one booked in and it may not be on. Is anyone else coming do you know? if so maybe you could let Helen know.

I've been told that Stuart Eaton is now doing gastric banding in Ballarat. Does anyone know of him?

Hi Linda
Mmm interesting one for me - I am not "out in the open" in respect of my band so would not want to appear publicly in any promo material - but provided that anonimity can be provided am happy for it to happen.
I know others are happy to go public with it - just that I haven't told family and do not intend to.
The other concern that I have is the personal pressure that sometimes arises to always stay at goal - this can do ones head in if you have publicly proclaimed the success that you have............
Hope everything going well for you?
Cheers Annie

Hi Linda,

Thanks for letting me know. It is amazing how you can jump the gun sometimes and make assumptions.

Hi Linda,

My name is Helen and I am the dietitian that Sally is talking about coming up in December. The seminar is going ahead on Tuesday the 9th December evening all details on my website.

How timely is this. I contcted the courier now nearly 2 weeks ago to do a story on the fact of me coming up to Ballarat to help everyone. They had not returned my call, but I was amazed at your post. I assume this resulted from my request. It would be nice to chat with you regarding this. I can be contcted on 0413 265 296 as I will be out and about a little today. I look forward to hearing from you soon and meetign everyone in Ballarat.
Regards Helen

I just had a phone call from a reporter at the courier. He wants to come along to our next meeting and have a chat with an idea of doing an article on gastric banding. Thoughts please?

Hey Linda was that what Sally was talking about ? She mentioned trying to get someone who knew about banding up here ...........seems most have the same view of the local advice on this matter!
Sounds good
Cheers
