I love Dr. Schurict!! He was my surgeon and he is and has been so awesome thought the whole process. I had my surgery in Dec 2013 at Penn. He is very supportive and I highly recommend him.

I too suffered from PCOS pre-surgery (surgery Dec 2013). I would go sometimes years without a period if I didn't take medication and when I finally would have one it would last at least 2 months. My cycle finally started coming regularly in April of this year and I can now set my clock by it. It comes every 4 weeks as it's supposed to and last about 3-5 days. I too wish I would have done this much sooner. Best of luck to you.

As everyone has already said she has some serous issues and it's better that you find out now then look to her for support after your surgery and she abandons you. You don't need that kind of person in your life. Her exit from your like will leave an opening for just the right person to come along and be a true friend. Good luck to you.

I was sleeved 12/4/2013. I started my process at 407. Surgery weight was 392. I'm now down to 307. Still a ways to go but you can see progress.

I worked overnights and used to use Wawa all the time. The have the most variety. You should try to pack your meals in advance and avoid eating out all together but that doesn't happen always. Trust I know lol. Worst case go with Wawa in a bind.

GNC Lean Shakes are Lactose free. They taste pretty good. They're not too thick or they don't taste chalky.

I tested positive also. When I went back for my 2 week check up my surgeon started me on antibiotics. I was fine. It didn't hinder my weight loss at all.

Finally checking back in. It's been a while. HW - 407 SW - 392 Dec 4 CW - 332 Total loss 75lbs.
