  3. Do you see Lisa for nutrition?
  4. I did more than 6 months. But that was because of me wanting to think more and because of my adrenal tumor. Did u go to the cardiologist and all the other specialists?
  5. When I started with Dr B they would give surgery dates out ahead of time. They changed that because sometimes things would back up. I didn't really lose any weight when I started the process. I was 270 at the first apt and 265 the day of surgery. I started in aug 2011. In December I didn't know if I really wanted to have the surgery. So I missed some apts. in February I decided I need to do it for myself and my kids! I should of had the surgery the first week of June last week of may but they found the tumor. Only delay was finding an endo to clear me that took husky. Had surgery aug 14 2012. Best thing I have ever done!!! I feel great!! Once Kelly told me they submitted to the insurance I waited a week and called husky myself. They told me I was approved for the 14th. I then called Michelle and she told me they put a ghost date in and to start my diet.
  6. Yes he is my surgeon also! Love him!! I was sleeved aug 14th and I am down 60lbs now. When I finish nursing school in October he is also going to remove my adrenal gland because I have a non cancerous tumor. He is wonderful!!! The brought me into the OR at 730am and he called my mom at 9am to tell her I was fine! I had no issues and started school full time 2 weeks later
  7. Are you seeing Dr Benbraham at midstate?

  12. I have pcos, started getting hair on my chin after my first child. I gained 60lbs with her. She is 14 now. I never lost the weight and just gained more. The hair on my chin was bad...I needed to pluck or wax every day. I was sleeved on aug 14th. Since my pre-op diet (aug 9th) I have lost 33lbs. The hair isn't growing like it was!!!!! I only have to pluck 3 times a week!!!!! Has this happened to anyone else?
  13. I swallow .5 Xanax. Started taking them 3 days post op. I do not take every day but when I need one I take it, my doctor said it was fine
