Thank Linda. I'm 29 and 120 and sick of myself lol! I'm looking forward to my appointment with Armstrong. Did you look into any other surgeons?

Sure I'm 44, was 130kg before opti - now 119 and I think I am 170cm. I have had this weekend off opti and had real meals with wine too so prob won't lose much weight this week, I started opti a week early so I could have this last weekend of fun! One more week to go -

Hi I'm in on the 13th August, my first appointment was 28th June so about 6 weeks....also he made me do 4 weeks of opti instead of the normal 2 weeks because he thought my wine consumption was a bit high, oops!

Hey Linda! When is your surgery?? Did you have to wait long for the date?

Hi Bubbles,

Welcome! I am having my sleeve with Jon Armstrong and was very impressed when I met him, there is a thread on this forum with lots of advice on what to ask surgeons here:

Having said that I had very few questions on the day, I think I had done my research and made my decision before I even arrived in Perth!

Good-luck :)

Cheers
Linda

Hi Everyone!
Well I have now done all my research and I have appointments next week with Armstrong and Thomas here in Perth. Any pointers on what to ask at my appointments??
