NeedaBreak4Me 1,755 Posted May 28, 2016 (edited) @@aussiecosy my surgeon is one of the best.. he has actually taught many of the other surgeons in sydney, he did my band and i wouldn't use anyone else but him.. he is highly skilled and up to date. I went through the Sydney Institute for Obesity Surgery and they have a follow up program for 3 years (inclusive with your package) they are very helpful and supportive. When i had all the complications with my band... i was practically on the phone or in the office every week... and not once did i feel like a burden and they were always very thorough. But the best surgeons in sydney are: Dr Talbot, Dr Jorgensen & Dr Wong Edited May 28, 2016 by AussieGirl81 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

camry2016 78 Posted May 31, 2016 I've been stalled for the last couple weeks and that's bumming me out a bit. BUT I'm back to working out regularly, my clothes are getting way too big and overall I'm feeling good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeedaBreak4Me 1,755 Posted May 31, 2016 Its soooo hard to be patient... ive been the same weight all week... down to the gram! So frustrating! I would hope it would move a little.. but nup, my stupid scale stays the same.. we are fighting right now... and i don't like my scale one bit!!! I really should put her away.. but i can't! That said... i need to remind myself that the weight does come off in different time frames... and that when i had the band... i didn't lose most of my weight till the 3 month mark onwards.... I still am angry at my scale though hahaha.. no responsibility taken here hahaha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PissiChrissi 200 Posted June 2, 2016 I had a 3 week stall myself. Then I'd lose a cpl and put 1 back on! What?! Lol. Finally down to just losing and consistently again. Down 47 total since surgery on 4-20 (23 pre opp) and first day back to work today. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
