Hi All.

Fairly new to this site, I am located in the NT.

I am 4 weeks out from my sleeve surgery that I had done in Sydney. I am 21kg down including my 2 week pre op diet. I have recently had problems with gallstones, has anyone else had the same problem? ????

Hi jessica, welcome, yes i had problems 3 months after my surgery. Woke up with extreme nausea, was rushed to hospital that evening, 2 days later gall bladder was removed. Recovery was 6 weeks. I had to get it removed as the stones had stuck to the gall bladder wall and had infected my gall bladder. Im living an absolute normal life without it, im so glad its out!

Best of luck with yours

I have managed to get myself into the 60s. 69.7kgs, JUST got myself there and feeling pretty good :)

I was down to 68kgs about 5 years ago and was over the moon, I'm almost back to that stage but would definitely like to see another 10 gone, possibly more because I'm a short ass :)

I was in such a rush to lose weight when I first got handed and I'm now I'm totally ok with slow and steady losses :)

My bandiversary is 3 months away, how time flies!!! I think my goal of getting to 60kg in one yearmay be possible! Even if it isn't at the one year mark I'll get there :)

Ive been bouncing up and down 1kg for the last 4 weeks.. Im going nuts. Im not eating a lot and nor am i exercising to the levels i was prior to working. I have had significant changes going on in my life over the last 4 weeks.. Started a new job, had a car accident - both of these have forced my timing of stuff to be all over the place. I hopefully get my car back in the nxt couple of days and that will allow me to have regular starting times at work to allow me to come home early enough to give me time to fit in some exercises! I need to get a good routine going on in my life lol. Im just a mess at the moment :/

Yes so true nerms when I think about how big I was I am so so happy to be in the 7o's but I just want to hit the 60's then I am ok with it taking its time!! Will I tho?? Lol

I stalled again after 5 days so I ate what ever for a week and gained 700 grams nothing I know as even eating what ever I want does not = even half I what I could eat pre op!! Lol

Mary I hope everything works out for you hun I am exercising in the mornings now before work it's easier than trying after work xx

      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.

      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.
