Sorry I took so long @greenpea 

I took so long to answer because I'm singing to the sex pistols song @TAB posted.

How am I gonna cope of a couple of hours of this ????

Yes about medication. 

In 2011 had lap band lost lots of weight [edited by moderator]. All was good until started eroding  in stomach at year 2020. Had it out but didn't get a hole in 

Stomach. 

 

The surgeon in Perth happened to be head of bariatric in local hospital. He heard my story -- he was empathetic and in January, 2023 I went on bariatric list for public sleeve. 

Jan. 2024 had sleeve. Lost so far quite a lot, with a third of it again to go. [edited by moderator]

Pretty much husband never ever complained about my adding stomachs and necks. 

I needed support certainly to have the food eat today. 

It's an individual thing. For my mind where I go bit crazy after operations and the before - the support got me through.  

 

My story - I'm just so burnt out from stress. It's been knocking on the door
