Fortunately after the 2 weeks of liquids only you will be really impressed at your weight loss start... But as everyone says, dont expect it to last. Its someone saying for all the pain and crap we have put you through we'll make ur first week of weight loss a good one so encouragement :tt1: Good Luck! If you need advice about what to eat we're all here!

I went to Tony Keirath and there was absolutely no mention of Optifast! If there was i think i would have run away... or negotiated for the Tony Ferguson shakes are they are 100 times better, some might say even nice!

Hi all, I go to the Vic Park Lesuire centre and do Water walking for half an hour to an hour a day. Today i'm going to the specialist gym at the Mercy Hospital Bariatrics centre. $12 for non members to go and they give you a 45min work out with people training in lap band surgerys.. will let you know how it goes. Any one who wants to come excerise with me is welcome too. The Vic Park Lesuire centre is like $24 a fortnight (yes i get my money's worth!) I could always do with more motivation!

I'm love to join in, let me know what the go is Maybe we should go to a pool or something! (I've got excercise on the brain!):biggrin: Banded 11 Dec 2007

Hey, My name is Caron and I just signed up to this forum thing. I had my lap band down by Kierath on the 11 Dec07. Kierath is a really good doctor but i felt that i wasn't really given any information about what to eat post surgery. This may have something to do with me having an appointment with him, him call me in the next few days and then me going in for surgery 2 DAYS later! It was all a bit quick but i'm loving it now. Weight loss at around 10kg to date but I get Fluid put in the band for the first time this friday (2 days away). I'm a little nervous about throwing up a lot For anyone thinking about the surgery I would recommend a Bariatrics dietician as well... I have been seening an excellent lady.. who has helped tremendously with what to eat and what not to eat. I cant wait to talk to you all and hear your stories. I'd love to catch up with you all! bye for now!
