Guest guest Posted March 5, 2001 Report Share Posted March 5, 2001 Well, it was 7 weeks yesterday since I was banded, and I've lost 13kgs. I'm certain this 'honeymoon' period will end soon enough, but I'm pretty happy with the early progress ! Yesterday, I wore a pair of pants to work that I haven't worn for about a year. I felt rather special I'm going in to The Avenue for my first fill at 3.15pm on Friday. Will any other Melbourne people be there then ? cheers, Leanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2001 Report Share Posted March 29, 2001 Hi Helene, I don't know who your doctor is but at The Avenue we do not pay for fills. It is bulked billed. If you would like a visitor when you have your op let me know as I live in the general Dandenong area. Are you also aware that we have support group meetings once a month. It would be great to see you there. Esther. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
