Sorry whitney1968 , the group is closed. Only open to his patients. I wish I could have given you better news.

We meet in person once a month at the hospital. It's actually tomorrow night ! I would be happy to ask if others can join. I'll be in touch tomorrow night.

I am also in Slidell and had the sleeve on 4-1-15 by Dr Gridley at ochsner northshore. He and the dietician that works with him run a monthly support group. It's wonderful! I could find out if others who had surgery by different Drs can join in. Let me know!

I went through the exact same thing. I can honestly say it does pass. I am 4 months out and I do not regret this decision. I am so happy ! The only thing that got me through that tough period was Netflix! Hang in there Brandon, you can do this.

This is a Great thread!

I've never heard of him. Is he with Ochsner?

Hi everyone, I was sleeved April 1st and was just wondering how everyone was doing!

I'm in Slidell too! Who is your dr?

Hi April sleevers! I was wondering if anyone else is in a stall? My clothes feel big, I feel great but the scale is stuck. Just curious if anyone else is experiencing this as well. Thanks! I hope you all feel smaller

Happy one month April 1st sleeveless! I don't know about you all, but I can't believe how much I have changed in one short month. I just did my weekly weigh in and since I began my journey I am down 40 pounds! I am 6 pounds away from telling the 200s goodbye forever!!! How is everyone else doing?

I completely understand your fear. I am glad you found a Dr that is helping and supporting you. Please don't hesitate to contact me for any help you may need. My email is danagiroir@gmail.com. keep us posted please

Gladys62, I have been reading your journey. I don't know if you've found a new bariatric surgeon but I am in Slidell and have the most amazing Dr ! If you would like his info, I will gladly pass it along. He is so caring, gives out his cell, his dietician emails me back right away with my crazy questions. You deserve good care. Please let me know if I can help

I'm on a tablet. I will get on the computer and try.

I don't know how to get to the new thread! Help!

Hey April 1st surgery buddies. I was curious if anyone else has experienced a change in taste since surgery. The Protein Shakes I loved pre surgery make me sick now. I'm struggling trying to find a Protein Shake I can stomach. I would love any suggestions. I hope everyone is doing well

Thanks, I love her site!

Can someone please tell me how to make this ricotta bake? It sounds amazing! Thanks

Thank you

They gave me sugar free italian ice in hospital

Hey guys, I was sleeved on the 1st and came home today. I cannot stop crying. All I am thinking is what did I do!?! Anyone else feeling this way?
