Hi Tara,
How have you been going? How was the meet up at Louise's? I have been plodding along, much the same weight. I had my second fill on Friday and had my fist BP when I was rushing at a birthday party and some sausage roll didn'tagree with me. I am heading back in a fortnight and I think I should be pretty close by then, my fill was only 1.5mls on friday, but it has made a fair difference. I think the band must be in a different position this time.
Shan - hope you get your shoulder sorted out, sounds painful.
Hope everyone else is well.

Hey Shan, we are going to see Pink on the 14th too. Its my third attempt, after having to sell my other tix as they were too close to my op. Can't wait! Hope that shoulder heals up soon, when are you having the MRI?
Tara - all is well with me. I have stopped leaking YEAH, and the wound is gradually closing up. Still having to dress it every day, but hopefully only for another week or so. The rest is still taped up, he wants me to leave the tape on til I see him next, at the end of August. Then I should be in the clear, and can start saving for my next one :) Did you see Jeri in the paper today? She is going to be on A Current affair, probably later this week, regarding the whole skin issue we are left with after weight loss.
Wendy and Garry, glad you enjoyed your cruise. Hope everyone else is well.
Cheers
Sue |

Hi there,
things going ok for me at the moment. Shoulder is giving me a great deal of grief and have to have an MRI, just hope its nothing serious so that i can get back to boxing and get some more weight off ASAP! Have next appointment on 14th and thought while i was in melbs i may as well go to see P!NK one more time before she leaves OZ. Hopefully its 3rd time lucky to get to meet her!!!
Hoep everyone is great

Hi all
We are back from the cruise. Had a great time, nice warm weather, lots to do and see.
We went buggy riding and jet boating in Vila.
Both Garry and I came home putting on very little weight. I saw Richard Wednesday morning and had lost .2 since I last saw him and he was pleased.
Been having lots of shoulder pain again, don't know what triggers it but I am trying to manage it.
Garry going to see Richard tomorrow 1st time in about 6 months.
Hope everyone is well.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for your lovely comments. Well if i thought it hurt yesterday, that was noting, today is so much worse and i cant even do things likebrush my hair or put it up. Hopeful after some more physio it will be ok. He said that i should still be ok to walk and stuff so walk away i shall! Just really really disappointed, it feels like im doomed to fatness forever!!! Sorry for feeling sorry for myself again, but its all i have got at the moment
Hope everyone is well, glad to hear you on the mend Sue and getting back into work, hope all is well everyone

Oh Shan, how horrible. I hope the physio works and you don't need surgery. Are you in much pain? I know its hard, but take it easy and give it time to heal.
Tara, I'm doing ok back at work. Only worked 3 days last week, found I got very tired by about 2.30. But then I would put an extra sugar in my cuppa at afternoon tea and it got me through the afternoon LOL. This week is better, though I was very tired Tuesday as I did a night class Monday night. On the plus side, I have stopped leaking YEAH, and I think the wound is starting to close up. Just the tiniest bit, but I think its happening.
Took the tape of the front part yesterday to change it, first time I have got to have a close look, and its looking great, just a really fine line.
Enjoy the meet up at Louise's today. Sorry I can't be there, there are a couple of newbies I would have liked to meet. Say hi for me, and will hopefully catch up next time.
Cheers

Oh Shan, you poor thing. Just isnt fair. You are exercising to better your health and fitness and now this happens. Hopefully it wont be as bad as it sounds.
Now Erina - where are you? Can you make it to Louise's place tomorrow?
Sue - hows it all going back at work? Are you managing ok?
Gary and Wendy - are you back from the cruise yet? hope you had a ball and that all is going ok with your bands. |

Hi eberyone,
well i cant begin to tell you how diappointed, angry and frustrated i am right now. I went to boxing this morning and afterwards my should locked into plae and i was unable to move it. Seems that i have torn my rotator cuff and may need surgery to repair it, having an ultrasound in the next couple of days, intense physio for 5 days. NOT HAPPY. Its like Karma kicks me down whenever i seem to even look happy. Every time i start to get successful at this weightloss thing something holds me back, now the exercise has to stop completely for god knows how long. AAARRRHHHGGGG, so so angry!

Hi Wishful,
Im felling your pain. The same thing is happening to me and its SO FRUSTRATING.
I have decided to see a dietician here in Albury as im finding it so difficult to get in to see Belinda. I spoke to her and we are going to make weekly foor programmes that fit in with my strenuos workouts and then i SHOULD see some results.
Hang in there mate, everyone keeps telling me its worth in the end

Hi everyone,
wow, everyone seems to be doing well at the moment. Erina, im so pleased for you, great news that you might get there quickly and didnt put on hardly anything at all....my weight can fluctuate by that amount from one day to the next.
Im happy to report that i have lost 3kgs since my last fill and after a phone review today was told i dont need to go back on friday, that i should wait for anther 4 weeks from what ihave described to the drs. Kinda ok with that but also kinda worried about waiting another 4 weeks for a fill in case this one wears off too. Its seems to be wearing off slowly but at a much slower rate than normal.
I also started boxing today, loved it....was great. I spoke to the trainer and he said that if i stick with him he will take 20kgs off me in 6 months time, god i hope he is right....that will be about xmas time!!!!
Hope everyone is really well and happy
Love shan |

Erina, great news. Good on you, only 2kg was great work on your part. And sounds like you will get that restriction much quicker this time around. I recall you having a 14ml band 1st time around, maybe they have gone for a 10ml this time cause your insides would have shrunk too.
It was funny, this morning I thought, gee, Erina must be getting close to having her fill, and I jumped on and here you were.
Terri, I'm still leaking, but it is definitely slowing down. Saw the surgeon on Tuesday, and he is happy with how it is going. Still mucking around with changing dressings, and I am so over that. And I am sick of wearing the girdle thingy, but its holding dressings in place. But otherwise, very happy. The rest of the scar is still taped up, but I see bits when they redress it, and its just a fine line which should fade nicely. And I'm getting around in size 10 jeans with a flat stomach, which I have never had in my life, not even as a little kid. They said what they chopped off would not reflect on the scales, but they chopped 3.5, and I've lost 3kg, so pretty happy there too. And I'm maintaining it despite having 1ml of fill out before the op, so eating very comfortably. So good all round, just need to stop leaking. Hope you are looking after yourself. Are you on medication, or receiving treatment?
Louise, sorry I can't make it, working that day, and its too far to skip out for a long lunch. Sorry.
Cheers
Sue |
