@@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

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.

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

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
