Anyone from Indiana?

I'm hoping to have surgery by April and I'm wanting to hear from other people that have gone with IU Bariatric.

I started my journey 1/11/13 at my first appointment at 333 and got sleeved 6/11/13. Im still over my goal of 195 but I'm really thinking 217 fits me good. [ATTACH]41479[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]41480[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]41483[/ATTACH]

Had a nsv and a sv today. XL fitted shirts fit great and I broke the 250 mark today when I woke up to 247 on the scale. I love my sleeve!!!

I just buy new shorts size 36! Holy Sh_t!

How is everyone doing? I know there were several of us sleeved the last few months. My surgery was June 11th. I'm down 37lbs since then and 82lbs since my first Dr appt. Its unbelievable but I'm 50 lbs to goal weight.

I had Dr.Inman for surgery and she did a great job but she has now left the IU center. I am switching to Dr Mattar and have my first appt with him in a few weeks.

I took those socks off at the hospital before I went home. I started drinking isopure in the hospital. I haven't had any restrictions with liquids. I also find I do drink to fast but haven't had any gas pains from it. I was sent home with a binder on and I think it lasted a few hours at home.

Good Luck!

I'm doing great! Tomorrow ill be 3 weeks out from surgery. I'm down 26 lbs since surgery and 68 lbs down since January. I started out wearing a 3XL shirt and I'm already trying on XL shirts. They are still a little tight but in a month I think they will fit. How are you doing?
-
Everything went great! I didn't have any problems with anything other than pain in my shoulder from the gas. I walked 6 laps around the halls the night of surgery and 14 the next morning. The nurses were great!
-
I'm not sure if they did or not.
-
My Dr also is switching but since I've already had surgery I'm planning on just staying with IU. Had this happened before surgery I guarantee I would have gone with her. Also if I had it to do all over again I would have started with St.Vincent only because the process is a lot faster there.

Hey stranger! How is your progress going?
-
Oh ya! I walked 3.5 miles today and it felt good. I hit 271 today and I'm hoping to be in the 260's tomorrow.
-
WooHoo! I just had the best cottage cheese ever. It may be because I have been on liquids for 9 days.
-
6 days out and 10 lbs gone! This is crazy!!!
-
I was sleeved on the 11th also and was just wondering what everyone else had lost. I've also lost 10 lbs in 6 days!!! That's just crazy! That's a total of 58 since January.
