Hi, Newbie from Perth

One of my kids turned up sick today not looking well at all so I had to cancel with cohen tomorrow so no updates at the moment

Tracey

No worries Tracey i had never been on a forum before this one either so it was all new to me , its weird all the new discoviers you will make with your body and shape make sure you take your measurements before surgery so you can see how much it goes down sometimes wen your further along you might not be losing but you may have lost cms
I have sent you a pm

Cheers Sue

Thanks Sue

Shucks I am feeling a bit silly now lol thought bumps might have to do with posting even put it in the search...lol....don't tell anyone....lol

I'm sure there will be plenty of bumps
But I am so looking forwards to loads of victories
I can't wait till i see my collar bone!!!


Thanks Tracey

Hello and Welcome Tracey

Im also in the northern suburbs Jillybean means any little bumps you know like something not going well for you at some stage food wise emotionally wise of if you have just had a crap day in your life and the victories of course are any little milestones one of my first that i loved was my stomach didnt sit on the steerwheel anymore i have a collarbone anything thats making you feel good so start your diary then you can look back on it

Good luck with your appt look forward to hearing how your appt goes and reading your journey

Cheers Sue

Welcom and congratulations on opting for the sleeve. It is an amazing, life changing, surgery. I'm nearly 10 weeks out and have lost 20kilos and it is just so easy. Infact when a couple of girls from work commented on my weight last week (noone from work knows I had the surgery) I was very embarrased as i don't feel like i'm doing anything special. Just eating miniscule meals.

Goodluck for you appointment.

welcome Tracey

I remember my first appointment - I was very nervous and it happened all very quickly 2 months and I was being sleeved. 3 and half months since surgery and I feel great - have lost 33kgs

hi and welcome, this is a great place i could browse all day if the time permitted...... awesome to have a place that gives you so much info and support. i am off to meet my dr on thursday ..... so excited... scared... cant wait... anyway you have come to a great place..

Hey Tracey

Welcome to this fabulous site...... I am from Perth too! There is quite a few of us on here!
I am a bit puzzled by you going to see Dr Leon Cohen, I thought he was not doing the sleeve anymore......
Let us know how you go... I have also sent you a private message.....

Hi all,

My name is Tracey,
I have just found out about the sleeve i am so excited I am off to dr's Tuesday to have my first appointment with Dr Leon Cohen at the moment it seems a bit rushed as I found out about this operation last friday Argh!!! They pushed my appointment up two weeks earlier so I,m off on Tuesday. I am soooo nervous have no idea what I even say to him when i first meet him. I am so Thank-full for this site as I have learned so much and have enjoyed lots of your diaries, Will start my own next week after my first appointment.

A bit about myself : I live in the northen suburbs of perth, I'm 38 I have three kiddies I have been over weight since I started having the kids and I do eat eveyrthing in sight Now more that ever cause I won't be able to soon enough but have decided to get my weight down after tuesday as I Know thats a requirement.

Glad to meet you all

Tracey
