Melbourne Get Together



Recommended Posts

I will be although evening time if its going to be in Williamstown is just about impossible for me given the time Doug gets home from work, anywhere from 7-8pm. I live in completely the other side of town, it would be 9 pm before I got there.

We've only had one a few months back.

It just seems really difficult because we're from all over Melbourne and getting everyone together at the same time is easier said than done.

For what it's worth, I pretty much cant do evenings. I have 3 kids and live way out the other side of town, and Doug doesnt get home till reasonably late. Daytime meetups, fantastic, I'll be in one of those.

I reckon just mix it up, if we want to do an evening one soon, then fine, if I can make it I will, if not, I'll catch you all some other time. Do what suits the majority.

Phili i'm from kilsyth and days are better than evenings for me. I've had my band for ages but feel like a newbie post plastics it's so tight. I have to learn how to eat all over again.

oh girls what we going to do, i guess that's the problem when trying to fit everyone's schedule but it would be perfect if no one misses out and we can all meet up but i can't see how, but we'll keep working on it :clap2:

Well what's wrong with a weekend? Sunday coffee or something?

And if not, well if we have one in the evening this time, just do a daytime one next time. Then if someone cant make it, they can the next time perhaps?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
