    Aussie Bandit says hi.

    hi jason congratulations on getting your band. looks like you are getting great results which is fantastic. i got my band done about 2 years ago and have lost about 30 kilos i have had quite a few medical problems unrelated to the band which has slowed my weight loss down the last 12 months but i am so glad that i have done it . it is the best thing i could have ever done. would be happy to answer any questions you have (if i can) i look forward seeing your results Jane Hi sharon congratulations on booking your date. it is soooo exciting i hope all goes well Jane

    Canberra Bansters

    hi mel just found your post i dont live in canberra but i regularly go to queanbeyan i dont know of any support groups but thats doesnt mean there isnt any maybe ask your doctor if he/she knows of any. so how long have you had your band now and how are you finding it?
  4. hey bubz

    sorry i havent been on here for quite some time cos i have been sick so i have just found your message. how is your band going now when you messaged me you had lost 10 kilos which is awesome. as i said earlier i was really sick with thyroid problems so the last while i have floated around the same weight ive lost just under 30 kilos but im feeling much better now and can do a little bit so hopefully that amount will start moving again as far as the band goes i have had no problems i just have to watch how fast i eat esp when eating bread and rice/pasta and chicken. have you experienced much problems with food?

     

    id better stop blabbing

    hope to hear from you soon

    hello from Australia

    Hi there bubz i am also from oz im from nsw about 1 hour from sydney i got banded in april and it was the best thing that ive ever done use this site as much as you can cause i only found it a couple of months ago everyone is so friendlyand helpful ive learnt heaps since ive been on here if you want to chat im here if you want to pm me thats cool :thumbup:
  11. Hi all im from nsw having the band was the best thing i have ever done for myself i had banding done in april and have lost about 16 kilos. i find that the only real time i have trouble with the band is when eating bread and chicken i can eat it i just find that i just to eat it more slowly. Chriswa i only stayed overnight i assume that is the normal time. good luck with it all any questions feel free to ask.
  12. yes it is soooo worth it. i was very lucky to have had no dramas thru the wholebanding and recovery my worse part was the fill there for a while they had trouble filling. but all of that was really not that bad considering if i never had the band done i would be so much more over weight and there would be no chance that i would have lost 34.5 pounds. it has been a very slow process but im so glad i did it my problems for food is bread and chicken though what how quick you eat cos if you eat too quickly you can get air in there which can be real painful but good luck i hope you do well dont be scared i know easier said than done:teeth_smile:

    Hernia help

    i think every operation is different and people heal differently i had a large hernia done at the same time and i was off meds completely 2 days after. the toughest for me was the not lifting stuff or bending that i struggled with

    Hi from Western Australia

    hi shanwa congrats for making the decision to do this. im from nsw and i got banded in april i decided to only tell a few really close friends and family but most people didnt know i am slowly telling people as they are noticing the weight come off and asking wat i have been doing. unfortunately a lot of people dont understand the band and think it is the easy way out but they are so far from the truth you do have to work at it it doesnt do it for you it is a tool and if you dont use the tool like they tell you it wont work. dont let those people discourage you this is the best thing you can do for yourself people can have opinions but in the long run you need to do wats best for you good luck with it all let us no how you go:thumbup:

    Hi from Australia

    hi debra i was banded back in april and have lost about fifteen kilos now. it took a while for my band to be at the right level, but i am sooo happy that i have done this. i would be heavier now if i didnt have it. check out insurance tho cause if u have to wait 2 years or longer it would be quicker to go thru private health if you can manage the gap
