Anyone have surgery at Hurley in Flint, MI?
Lori21769 replied to mslis48451's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Hurley is an excellent facility! I didn't have sleeve surgery there, but have had other surgery. My mother taught nursing at Hurley for many, many years. You will have good care there. -
What are you doing with all the time you are spending NOT eating now? I have become addicted to Farmville and FarmTown as a result of the "spare" time. What are you doing?

What is WRONG WITH ME???
Lori21769 replied to sleeve 4 me's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Make your favorite meal, and then put it in the food processor. I made meatloaf, mashed potatoes and peas, then pureed it and it was the best meal I had ever eaten! -
When ere u able to eat a salad? Is anyone able to have a bite of a sub or pita?
Lori21769 replied to selvester420's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor allowed salads at 4 weeks. I still have some trouble digesting them and i am almost 6 months out. They seem to come out looking the same as they went in! -

Haven't been here in a while! Update
Lori21769 replied to JillianMarie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been able to eat half a sub since about 3 months out. I can eat two slices of pizza. I have always been able to eat more than Tiff, and some of the others on here. I am losing, and not unhappy with my progress at all. I am eating less than half of what I ate pre-surgery, and that is good enough. -
now there's a side-effect I didn't expect!!
Lori21769 replied to Globetrotter's topic in The Gals' Room
Wow! I am almost 6 months out, and have not had this side effect at all! -
weight loss promotes travel : )
Lori21769 replied to possumtrot's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I find I am doing a lot more traveling now that it is more comfortable for me, and people aren't staring at me as much! -
When can i have my coffee?
Lori21769 replied to mmarcial619's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had coffee in the hospital on day 3. -
did I make the right decision?
Lori21769 replied to michiganmamma's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I have over 100 lbs to lose. So far I have lost 68lbs, and still losing. I totally love my sleeve. RNY lose faster, but I'm not in a race, and I didn't want to have "dumping syndrome." I think the sleeve is far less invasive- and if the tool is used properly you should lose what you want. -
Getting Sleeved 9/21 - Dr. Denis Halmi - Potomac Hospital in Woodbridge!!
Lori21769 replied to vanishingvixen's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
All I needed were some clothes to wear home! The hospital supplied everything else, including toothbrush, deodorant, shampoo, etc. -

Lori21769 replied to anninva's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I used Dr. Steven McKenna in Maryland. He works out of Shady Grove, Holy Cross, and Frederick Memorial. I would highly recommend him.
