Recommended Posts

Im happy to go pretty much anywhere. i will be just happy to meet some other bandsters, and get a little support. I do have children, but i would prefer to not bring them, i dont want to be worried about being on entertainment duty and not being able to chat with you guys.

Same here about the kids will do either way but will more than likely not bring them. Hard to get to know people when you're spending most of your time in the toilets or pushing someone on a swing!

Hi all

Here is my proposal. I was trying to find something that was central for everyone. Campbelltown is between 50 - 60 min drive for most people based on info from Google maps.

Macarthur Square at Campbelltown on Sat March 14. There a few coffee shops like Gloria Jeans & Jamaica Blue. We can meet at either and those that just want coffee can do that but they still offer food choices. How does 11:00 sound?

From most of the posts it looks like everyone is coming without children - unless I have missed something :thumbup:

Mel - you can come here and we can drive down together if you like.

Bindi - I know its going backwards to come forwards but you are welcome to come here as well.

Tazziecat - would you be happy driving to Campbelltown?

Shaggs, Bindi & mellyphat

Looks like it is just us for the catch up on Saturday. Do we want to meet in Parramatta instead of driving to Campbelltown?

      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.
