Thank u... Will try and post something once its all over! :-)

Yes my surgeon is ray also... How did u go with it all.... Recovery and Hosp stay?

Thank u so much! When did u have urs done, how have you found it.... Or are u waiting to have it? Which Hosp?

Oh really? Who was ur dr? I had mt pro op with a nurse Bernadette, she was so nice and said she had seen sooo many sleeve op Patients, who have all gone so well... She was very supportive and encouraging!

Yes I have been 2 weeks on Optifast... Not too bad actually... Have had a couple of " lax" Moments but have lost around 4-5 kgs! Get through this weekend ... Then it all begins! Where are u having ur surgery... Dr??

Oh my goodness! That's fantastic! Congratulations - I bet you feel Amazing!

Oh Kelli, a difficult time for your family, my granddaughter is only 4 months old, and I can't imagine how I would be feeling if she was unwell... Thinking of you and your family and hope for a full and speedy recovery for your little niece..... X

Fantastic nessa1977! U have broken the 100kgs.... What a great feeling that would be for u! Congrats!

Hi ozeedonkey! We're close in dates then... Good luck with urs... Have u had a band previously or straight to the sleeve. I had a band but it didn't work very well, then it eroded into my stomach lining, which was quite unpleasant and had it removed. I vowed to myself then, I was not having any more surgery again! That was about 14 months ago now and I can't wait for next Monday! Bring on my new ME! I know this time will be my last weightless surgery because this will work ! :-)

Oh really? May I ask who did ur surgery? 10kgs in 3.5 weeks!!! Wow!! Hope I can do that we'll also...just started the Optifast pre surgery program today ( 2 weeks til op)

Thank you everyone for your words of encouragement..... Is anyone here from Australia? Not that it matters, just interested...I'm sure the procedure is the same worldwide.

Oops.... That's SLEEVING!!!! :-)

Thank you so much. :-). How successful has your sleeping been ( if I may ask) ..... Are you in aust ?

Hi Everyone, I am new to this forum. I have previously had lap band surgery with no success, in fact it went pear shaped.. much like myself!. So after some serious consideration... I have decided my life has a long way to go... and Gastric Sleeving it is. ! I am taking a step into my NEW future on 12th November.. 2 weeks from tomorrow.. Feeling somewhat nervous but at the same time.. extremely excited with what will be a NEW ME! I plan on being around for a long time after this operation.. to enjoy my gorgeous Granddaughter (16weeks today) and my Husband and Family... I am in Melbourne - Australia...
