Thank you! I feel a little sore and yes the first few days are ruff. But I am managing though.

I just had my sleeve surgery with Dr. Brebbia this past Friday 7/25/2014. I had a successful surgery. I am not at home recovering.

Oh and I forgot to add that Dr. Brebbia will be doing my sleeve surgery.

I will be have my surgery at montogery medical as well. Tomorrow I go for my follow up visit for my sleeve surgery that I plan on having in July (praying that my insurance approves).

I showed my nutritionist a that I keep on my phone. At my visit I asked if she needed my food log and she said that she just needed to see the log and that I was doing some exercise. Next month will be my last nutriotional visit so I am going to make sure I keep a record of my food and exercise. Just in case my nutritionist ask for a hard copy of my food log.

I will be doing my last nutritional visit next month. I did my endoscopy last Friday. I completed my physc visit. My surgeon will also be Dr.Brebbia and I will be having my sleeve surgery at Montgomery Medstar in Olney Maryland.

Actually I do have some questions for you. How was your process with your insurance company?

mgsmith72-Thank you for this information. I am going to make a note of this. When did you have your surgery?

People need to mind there business, some people just hate to see people happy so they want you to join them in there own misery.

I am sorry that you feel that you have a stall in your loose of weight, stay positive you will get there. You know it funny because today I was looking into Washington Hospital Center. I think I am going to try there first and see what they have to offer with there Sleeve Surgery program.

Congrats, Congrats and much blessings to you!!!!!

@ sabrinalild-Thank you so much for your referral to this doctor. I am going to check him out. How has your journery been with your Sleeve?

Hi-Rachel That is great, I have a list of surgeons that I am interested in the the DC area, once I have my appt with my primary care doctor out the way and she approves of doing my package for the surgery then, will I start searching for a surgeon. Currently, I am looking at Medstar Washington Hospital Center, which is close to me. I would love this other surgeon at John Hopkins in Baltimore but that seems to be pretty far, if only I can get the surgeon in baltimore and have my post op care in at Medstar that would be great. But it would only make sense to have my post op care at the same office that I would have my surgery at.

I am also 5'7 and I want my goal weight to be 160 as well. I am 300 pounds.

That is great Nita, I know you are very excited. I have a person that I spoke to at work who had the surgery and has the same exact insurance that I have. So I hope I get this going really soon.
