| Hi
Im waiting too, Im from Bunbury and my HBF kicks in at the end of August, but end of Sept Im going on holidays for 6 weeks so Im hoping to book surgery for November, this forum is fabulous, ive been looking round for quite awhile and found lots of helpful tips and hints , im sure you will find the same thing, when does you health insurance kick in? Ive had my first appointment already which was last year and my next one is in September before I leave.

| Hi everyone. I have whole heartedly decided to get a gastric sleeve to help me with the weight problem that has been mine first thought in the morning and last thought at night since i was 8 years old.
My family is not supportive, apart form my god mother who has also had the surgery but i am sick of fighting this, carb free diets, exercising 7 hours a week atleast and not gaining any rewards.
I have to wait until my upgraded hospital cover wait period is over which is frustrating!
I love reading this blog and hope to find support! | |
