That was very depressing for me so I called up the insurance company and I was to where they would pay for the surgery had to transfer to New York Methodist to dr georiki he is great my cousin did it with him she is 120 pounds. Loss I chose him because my cousin did it with him. And when I saw him for the first time he schedule my surgery right away because I had most if the pre ops done already by September I was sleeve and I am 2 months post op and I lost 56 pounds so far from a size 22 jeans to size 16 and from 2x/3x tops to large I feel great my aim is a size 10 jeans just do ur research tho a lot and talk to people who done it good luck

  10. Yes ann it sure does get better with time I did not get any gas pains thank God no headaches either just felt dizzy a bit at times I do not know why maybe because I did not have enough to eat but that's my assumption but now I feel so good 50 pounds gone think I am at a size 14 I cannot wait to go shopping
  11. I felt really great after a lot of pain when u wake up but they give u meds to ease the pain the hospital was really great I did mine at in New York. U will be fine I still do my protien shake too and I really eat once a day in between I do you gut and crystal light I still throw up at times which happens to everyone don't worry too much just pray alot
  12. I did just walking my first doctor visit was last week so the doctor told me I can fully exercise now so I would say 6 weeks after but u can walk right out the hospital actually they make you walk at the hospital
  13. My experience I just had mine 9/30/2013 and I thought I would be in a lot of pain when I got home but I was not I came out the hospital 2 days after I was feeling great started walking ASAP the doctor will make sure u are stapled really good I chose this doctor because my cousin did it with him 8 months ago I am just on week 7 so if u are sure about your doctor I don't think you should worry
