LOL that's them! My packet didn't have a smell but I gave it a really good rinse (several minutes lol) and then just ran the boiling Water over it. It was really nice but as I said, so filling!! I'd recommend them for sure!

Lol,

Even my OAO couldn't get in my super greens powder, was disappointed :( now I'm on the hunt thru health stores for a similar algae/spirulina/chlorella and wheat grass/barley mix super vegie type power food powder thingy...

How's that for a futile fight?! Lol :D

hi aussies, im lying here in my hospital bed after being sleeved friday, I feel alot better today except for the gas pains. Hopefully these will subside soon enough. Its good to have the worst of it out of the way & to be able to look towards a healthier future. Anyone with questions I will answer as truthful as I can. Just want to wish all my fellow aussie sleevers all the best in your journeys you all can do this!! xx

To all Brissy / Gold Coast Sleevers, let's arrange a meet-up on Saturday 6 October at either Roma Street Parklands or South Bank. I personally love South Bank as I will take my children swimming after and there are great restaurants like Kapsali's or even just a cafe - we can discuss what your preferences are and decide on a suitable location but let's lock in 6/10 @ 1pm in your diaries.

We should look at getting together every 2 months or so, on 1st Saturday of the month where we can see our little group expanding over time and be here to support one another. I love hearing and seeing everyone's progress (and exciting for Beth getting closer to her surgery)

Let me know your thoughts :)

Good on you

That's a great idea shellz, I an in for that day. So is it ok to bring kids, as my husband does night shift and sleeps during the day. Won't know his shift until closer to the time but I may have my 2yo with me.

Great idea to take them swimming. Could make a day of it and take him in early. Then meet up with the group. I am in, will put it in my calendar.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
