J San 1,071 Posted June 23, 2018 Welcome @weirdlittlefox . Best of luck on your surgery and a speedy recovery. Gotta say this forum is great all around... Support, concerns, both positive and negative post op experiences. A whole lot of information. Don't have so much to offer myself as I'm still pre op but have taken in a lot. Like you FB is not something I had ever joined until recently and really don't use it at all. I'm sure you'll like it here just fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted June 23, 2018 @weirdlittlefox reach out to my bari-pal @Taoz for sustaining and advice if you like. She recently had a sleeve so is now a veteran and is also Australian. She can give you diet advice, knows what products and chemists are available, and will become the good chum to,you that she has become for me. There are also a couple people,in Canberra that come to mind. Lets see ther3care some active from Victoria, South Australia, Queensland, Tasmania , and a very vocal group from New South Wales. Odd to me but recently,I've seen more Aussies than Canadians, my ❤ is world-wide, l enjoy making new bariatric friends . We all are engaged in this weight struggle no matter where we came from, I enjoy everyone's viewpoint. Just recently heard from someone in Singapore. Oh and I am not going to be a VSG but a RnY bypass, doesn't matter, I reach out to everyone. I liken it to the difference between Army and Navy, we are all allies in this grand weight war. It's 8 AM here which means it's 8 PM. down under , hope you had a beaut of a day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
