  1. PS: Do you know of any other people who have a larger sleeve? :)

  2. ...Ihope you dont mind me probing for answers... I'm still a bit afraid of the whole tiny tumy scenario. Regards, Jo:)

  3. Thank you so much for replying Josephine:) That is great news, although I've had a few people tell me some cons for getting a larger sleeve, so I'm now a little confused. Congratulations on your pregnancy!! lovely news:) Was there a particular reason you got a larger sleeve, or just something u wanted, and did you keep your weight off? Also whats your eating capacity & do u know your bougie size?

  4. Hi Josephine, I hope ur doing well:) I'm really confused about whether the VSG is something I cld handle. &2b honest, the only thing stopping me is the huge jump in stomach capacity after the op. Then I heard they cld do a larger sleeve which I think wld b wonderful, but i dont know of anyone except u who has it. Hows it been? I dont mind taking longer 2 lose weight, just want less restriction. xx

    Hi Bex.. am glad i saw your post on lapband site.. I'm in research mode and i want to know more about the sleeve surgery. Will check out that site you mentioned with the forum. I like the idea because its a one off procedure.. ie no fills but i only know of one person who's had it done. He is ECSTATIC about it and almost forbids me to have the band lol. I'm just afraid cos its more invasive and its NOT reversible, as well as the fact that there are so many more people you can talk to about the band it seems. I would love to have a chat with you if it was possible. My email is thereyougojo@hotmail.com . If you have messenger, add me and i'll look out for you, or maybe email me your phone number and maybe i could give you a call? Thanks for your post and the leads i got from it. Take care, Jo:)

  7. Wow birdie.. you have taken me one step further to deciding to take the plunge and have the op. You look wonderful my dear... hot even:) i hope you check in some time... says you were last in in 2007.

  8. Hi Kellie... always nice to see a fellow Aussie! Congratulations on such a great job. You look unreal my dear. I'm considering the lap band and I'm trying to get informed thats why i've joined this great forum. Seeing people do what you've done is making my decision easier. Do you have any advice for me? My email is thereyougojo@hotmail.com ... don't feel you have to:)

    Take care,

    Juwa:)

  9. Hey Kylie:) Sorry i didnt make it back last night... was carried away looking at pictures then i got caught on the phone with a friend. Do you find lots of people seemed to only put face pics?! I was expecting more full length pics, but some who did... WOW! COOL! Didnt see you had written til just now, still learning how these forums work... you're my only friend lol. I went in to see if you were in chat... very dull. I have a tummy ache so might not be back tonight but look forward to our next chat. Hope you're feeling well and happy... juwa:) (or Jo)

    Thanks so much for sharing your story. Your approach is great and you have inspired me. Your before pic reminds me of who i see now in the mirror. The yucky stories DO leave a bad taste in your mouth so to speak lol, but i'm going to focus on the many people who say they would do it again in a heartbeat and have such great results like you (and hubby) And yes... it is true how much younger you look... congratulations and best wishes. juwa :tt1:
