aussiecosy 36 Posted January 26, 2017 @Brookebelynda.. good luck with that. I've been with HCF for 15 years with second top cover and they still made me wait a year.Yep didn't work. I don't really want to withdraw 20kfrom my super so I guess 12month wait begins now haha. Brookebelynda I wonder if you could just pay 12 months worth of premiums straight away and then not need the waiting period! Sent from my SM-G930F using the BariatricPal App Hi there! How are you doing? I'm getting out home in 1 hour!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PiriNola 28 Posted January 26, 2017 ... Is any of you two on FB? Maybe I could set up a group to keep in touch and keep each other accountable. And any other awesome aussies who may want to join. In Hobart there is not much after care support :-( Sent from my SM-N920I using the BariatricPal App Yes I'm on FB. Under Piri Nola. I started it just for weight loss chat and support. I want to keep my main on separate from it because of mean and negative feedback. Add me ❤️❤️❤️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steph56 32 Posted January 26, 2017 Hi Banded Becks am in Sydney. Where you? Each day getting better. Yesterday I had two shakes, about another half litre of Water and a cup of ginger tea, plus a 30 minute walk. Lots of sleep too. Middle feels a bit uncomfortable sometimes but I am pleased to be off the meds. Am going to try for 50g Protein today and 2L Water, plus a walk. Have been making lists of all the yummy small Protein rich puréed meals I can move onto once past this full liquid stage. Have found a couple of great blogs - the world according to eggface and gastricsleeve4me which have helped pass the time. Have booked hairdressers for highlights this arvo. Think it will be a great treat. I will sit and relax and drink peppermint tea Have a good day everyone. Hope the post surgeryites are getting better. Every day is a bit easier. Found a page called 41 sneaky ways to add protein to every meal. Has some yummy recipes. Sent from my SM-N920I using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JeanetteAnne 5 Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) I'd be interested in joining a private Facebook group too. I've tried creating one but it needs another person/friend for me to do it and I don't know any other GS people. I've called it Aussie GS. Anyone want to become my friend so I can make it? Piri Nola... I can't find you on FB maybe an email address? Edited January 27, 2017 by JeanetteAnne Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

erica_ozzy73 241 Posted January 27, 2017 Anyone find they wanna eat for the sake of eating???.. 7 weeks post op and the horrible habit never went away. I drink heaps of Water and cups of tea to trick myself but bloody hell its hard.. the head hunger games are full on. Given in the evening When I'm home with everyone it's so hard. Distracting myself isn't easy either as I know what I'm trying to do lol... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In past when loosing weight it is all about will power, and practising will power. Telling yourself no and having the mental strength. It is definately a muscle you have to continue to work out. There are a lot of youtube clips about practising will power and how to increase this. Hope this helps in some way.
