Hi all, just thought I'd sort of introduce myself.. I'm Erynn, In Mildura, Victoria. I was banded June 2008. Awesome to see everyone doing so well on here, if you don't have a support group you can go to, this is the next best thing! Hopefully it can be my next best thing as I can't seem to find anyone else here from Mildura and I never had a support group... So if you are from Mildura, Speak up! Would love to hear from you! Cheers Everyone!

Arms are more commonly done.. You can google results/photos of before and after shots, to me, arms look like they'd be pretty successful. Though i've always had doubts about thighs, especially one way that they do it..

Thanks both of you. It'll be good to be able to come here with my queries and worries to see if other have experienced them before rushing off to the phone to call my surgeon. I think I should have found this earlier.. Early days weren't too easy on me, some support would have been nice! Thanks again though. :thumbup:

I burp a lot in general. Though i've always been a bit of a windy sort of person.. I wasn't as bad as I am now. Which still isn't bad. I'm pretty sure wind was one of the things mentioned over a year ago before I had surgery...

Thanks, I hope so! I look good clothed.... Naked is an entirely different story! Lol. Keeping positive though. :thumbup:

Well.... I think you're all incredible and though, my mind hasn't caught up with my body and I still see me for how I was not what I am now... Hearing it from others is still and always will be inspirational.

Apparently they're not as bad as I think they are.. In other words my mother tells me they're fine but I know myself that they're not. I've been toning like crazy all along and I'm starting to think it's just something I'll have to get over. It is mainly the upper, inner thigh.. I'll check out my options when I get to that point, I'm not certain at all about what I'll do. Where most people seem to feel the need to get a tummy tuck and their arms done, I'm actually ok with my arms and weirdly lucky with my tummy.. it's just these thighs! Argh! *Jumps back on the orbitrek*

You're doing very well, remember... slow and steady wins the race.

More surgery is the last thing on my mind but it's the next thing to come up... Though, I'm looking to get an inner thigh lift. Has anyone else needed/had this done? It's not as common as a tummy tuck and having arms done from what I can gather, Which makes it harder to speak with those who have had it done. Good to hear everyone is doing so well

You guys must be so excited... Good luck!!! And remember, the post surgery beginning is worth it..

I have NO doubt you'll be as happy as I am (Unless you have some weird complications that do happen.. rarely).. It was the best decision I ever made.. It's good to have my life back. A week of pain after surgery is worth a life time of health and happiness.. Hope all is well with all of you other lovely ladies! Hoooooraayyy for us. Hahah.
