Attention ! Australian Sleevers

Dean, I am in Sydney :) Damn, cause I am definitely not adverse to going out with cops...infact they are on my preferred list, cops, firemen, medics, lawyers (good ones), doctors..

I could be persuaded to visit Brisbane for the right guy, lord knows that Sydney is kinda empty of good guys.

I'd love to watch your video but can't get into it on my I-pad either. What title would I type into YouTube to find it?

I logged onto VST on my laptop and was able to view it from our thread through there.

Well so happy today - wearing a size 16 skirt (began at size 24 - 5 months ago)

I LOVE MY SLEEVE <3<3

You look fantastic! You must be feeling so happy - size 24 down to 16 is a big loss! You will notice that you will drop sizes a bit quicker now as it seems like the sizes get closer together as you get lower. I am fitting anything from a 10 to 14 depending on the shop at the moment! Well done!

We're from Sydney originally, Newtown. All the good guys in Sydney are married, or gay!

Thanks Kayargh :) I've got a ways to go yet - but at least it's coming off fairly consistently. And I now have a gym plan for the New Year - 1 day yoga, 1 day gym, 3 days home routine designed by an exercise physiologist so I don't hurt myself :) Or that's the theory...

Dean, I love Newtown :) I live in Pyrmont so it is not too far away.

You pretty much summed up my experience of guys in Sydney, gay or unavailable (married, ltr etc)..the few that are out there just want to sleep with you, no strings attached..and I am worth some strings :)

Lila, congrats, it is awesome to meet goals~!! You will get there before you know it.

I wanted to meet my goal by Christmas too, but don't think that will be happening now. 3.5kgs away isn't too bad though. I have weighed myself today, and am now not going to weigh myself again until next year. I'm going to enjoy myself and not feel guilty. 61.5kg this morning.

I live near parramatta, western suburbs are equally devoid of eligible men. Especially those that are ready for an instant family. I think I'll move to qld and marry one of Dean's cop mates.

Speaking of men, my ex, whom I haven't seen or heard of in a year, messaged me last week wanting to meet up. A friend of mine saw him and told I'm how smoking hot I am now and that he ought to feel like the biggest idiot for letting me go and not fighting to keep me. If he couldn't keep me when I was fat and insecure, he's got a snowflake's chance in hell if he thinks he can have me back now.

I missed my goal by 4kgs. Wanted to be 80kgs by Christmas, but happy with where I am now. Coming off slowly by surely. Now buying mediums and size 14 tops and 16 bottoms, so pretty happy. We are at Brisbane Airport about to fly to Townsville to have Christmas with my husband's family in Ingham. Back in Brisbane on Boxing Day. Would love to arrange a social get together for those of us in or around Brisbane maybe early January. Anyone around then?

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
