Hello fellow Antipodeans

Reading all of your up's and down's, this Kiwi is looking at Lap Banding(BMI 52), it will be life changing, not to mention life saving. Any other NZ's on this site? Great seeing everyones 'tickers' although not sure how to put mine on

Re: Hello fellow Antipodeans

Hey there,

I am booked in for the band at the end of May, I can't wait. Good luck with making your decision.

Not sure if there are any other kiwi's here, I haven't been here too long. I am also unsure about the ticker business- sorry!

Cheers,
Tully.

Re: Hello fellow Antipodeans

Hi big G
I am not a kiwi but am married to a white kiwi ( would spell maori name but cant lol)... He comes from the bottom of south island...
I am to be banded on the 8th June, so that count down has started for me.
Hope you find the site a great help so you can make the choice that suits you.
Cheers
Danielle

Re: Hello fellow Antipodeans

Hey Big G

I'm a kiwi girl living in Aus :) Had my surgery on 24/3 - and although it's only been 2 weeks, I can honestly say that I KNOW it's been the best decision ever! :)

I dont' know what the cost is back home, but thankfully I was able to access my superannuation otherwise I would never have been able to afford it.

Kia kaha :) And let me know how you go! :)
