New from Brisbane

80 over that's awesome that you are going in June. ... I'm jealous! 6 weeks that is huge, I hope it doesn't take that long otherwise I'm gonna run out of time before I have to start paying people !

That is awesome!!!!!

I got my super approved on Monday and I am being sleeved by Dr Greenslade on 25/6/13!!!!!

My super approval took 6 weeks but they requested more info in the middle, apparently the RSE number for my super fund was wrong and I didn't send a GP letter.

Roll on 31st July

OH WOW im so so so exited - I was booked in for a late July apt with Dr Greenslade (a very busy man indeed!) and I just got a call to say he now has an opening this afternoon :)

YAY for me!!!

Hi I would thoroughly recommend Dr Greenslades as well.

Hiya skebn,

Welcome aboard !

Doctor Greenslade is an awesome surgeon and Brenda his office manager is super helpful.
I highly recommend his practice.

All the best,
Tara

Hi all :)

I am new to this site... and still finding my way!

I had lapband (was removed in 2012) and now looking at sleeve with Dr Greenslade or Dr Hatzifotis at Greenslopes - would love some reviews on the Doctors from those who have used them!

I am another that needs to apply for funding with APRA for early release of super.... I hate that process - it takes so long and I hate waiting!

Dr Michael Hatzfotis at Greenslopes, highly rec him, he was brilliant & has such a good way about him & the hospital was great too.

Your weight loss is awesome

Who was your surgeon if you don't mind me asking???

Thanks bluebags I've joined that thread.

80overtoday things have been going well, I've had no complications & lost 16.2 kilos since surgery. Hit my first hurdle this week by gaining 800 grams - dietician says my body has gone into starvation mode & I need to eat 1000 calories. I'm doing my best to but it's hard. Good luck with your super fund & your surgery.

Welcome!!!

I am being sleeved on 25/6/13 by Dr Greenslade.. just waiting to hear back from Super for funds *sigh*

How is everything going after 8 weeks?????

Welcome why don't you put yourself into the sleevers monthly applicable to your surgery date that way you can get all the info from people who are at the same stage as you. I'm in May and our group is very friendly have looked at other months and found it the same in all the different months.

Good luck

Thrilled to find an Aussie forum! I'm a 40 yo female who had a sleeve 8 weeks ago.
Look forward to getting to know ppl on here!
