k8ee 131 Posted July 9, 2013 So I noticed every other states sleevers threads are still going but Melbourne's keeps dying out. I'm really finding it difficult to find anyone with the same surgeon or even in Vic! What I want you all to do (if you want) is to populate the below and hopefully it will keep us all in touch and encourage each other. And of course feel free to write anything else you want. Ill start. Surgeon: Mr Ray McHenry Surgery Date: May 7 2013 Surgery weight: 110kg Current weight: 95.3kg 1 mistysj reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltb185 1 Posted July 25, 2013 I'm sure there are many more of us from Melbourne but most probably just get on and read without posting. I unfortunately never posted but found this place very helpful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltb185 1 Posted August 19, 2013 Very good sounds like you have done very well. I had mine with Dr Geoffrey Draper at Mornington on May 4th this year. Was 120kg and am now 87kg and feeling very good. Went through a rough time first couple of weeks but only gets better after that. 1 Ditdee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltb185 1 Posted August 19, 2013 No secret just obviously eating a lot less but I do crossfit 5 days a week and also some cycling on the weekends Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k8ee 131 Posted August 20, 2013 No secret just obviously eating a lot less but I do crossfit 5 days a week and also some cycling on the weekends That's fantastic. I exercise only 3-4 times a week but don't lose as quickly as you. Maybe I need to step it up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ltb185 1 Posted August 20, 2013 You're doing fine no need to go nuts and not always good to lose to quickly. I wasn't trying to lose that quickly it's just a result of having an obsession with crossfit and I also have a physical job. As long as you're eating well and doing 3 to 4 days of any sort of fitness you enjoy it will all happen for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
