I really hope it helps. I initially lost about 20 kgs then put it back on then it all fell off again. We are in Christchurch. I would be keen to in know who the surgeon was.
I have to be careful about everything I eat but I think I am slowly making progres. My biggest issue I think is a lack of physical ability to do the things I used to do. It's also frustrating going out for a meal with friends these days as all I can manage is an entree however I just keep reminding myself that I'm here and nearly wasn't in numerous occasions. Gotta stay positive

yes we do…his surgeon was rukshan ranjan…I think that’s how it’s spelled…he was very good and a lovely man. We are heading back to Timaru tomorrow. 😉 my husband has lost 20 kgs also…he was slim to begin with 😬 hopefully this tube does what it’s supposed to. Pleased you are making progress ! Did you have a feeding tube ?
