Hi everyone
I'm Tracy from Warner, nth Brisbane. I've got 1 wk from today to go until my sleeve next Wed 20/11/13!!! I'm so excited! I was 132.5kg when I started my preop optislim and this morning I was 127.7kg. Feels so good to be moving in the right direction. My surgeon is Dr. Reza Adib at the Wesley. If anyone has any tips or suggestions, I would be glad to hear them. Also if there is anyone nearby me who is recently sleeve or about to be. I would love to make contact so we can support each other through this time and beyond. If you interested, let me know and we'll sort out contact details etc....
Talk soon
Tracy
