Thanks for the advice! The prodding to find my port wasn't particularly enjoyable, but apart from that it was fine Sent from my SM-G900F using the BariatricPal App

I had my band put in 6th of May, & I'm in for my first fill tomorrow. I'm excited to kickstart the weightloss, but nervous about the transition. I've made sure I'm stocked up Soups because I've heard it can be difficult to get food down while you're getting used to the restriction. Any advice from experienced banders would be greatly appreciated Sent from my SM-G900F using the BariatricPal App

Oooh that's exciting! Good luck!! Sent from my SM-G900F using the BariatricPal App

Thanks Kiwijet no I got the band, & so far so good. I'm just a couple days into mushy food & it's going well, the only thing to cause discomfort so far was yoghurt of all things! I read that you were heading up to Mildura househunting, how did it go? Sent from my SM-G900F using the BariatricPal App

thanks @@demonchick my surgeon was Roger berry, he was good. not stuffy like i was expecting a surgeon to be! (my lapband was the first surgery i have ever had) i'm going well. just started mushy food today, so glad i was soooo sick of fluids how're you going after your sleeve?

Hello everyone ???? I've just joined the app, I was googling trying to find some sort of support group for wls in melbourne. I'm 2 weeks post op today, & so far so good! Looking forward to getting to know some other wls peeps ???? Sent from my SM-G900F using the BariatricPal App
