That's where I had mine in August. They are wonderful. The care I received was absolutely top notch. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I think you should call your surgeon and tell him that you are heading to the emergency room. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Well right now I'm in Virginia Beach enjoying a long weekend away. But I'm usually in NY.... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi. I was sleeved August 22. I'm getting in my fluids and about 80 g of Protein on average. I'm between 650-800 calories. 2-2.5 oz of food 4 times a day and one protein shake. Not losing but definitely getting smaller. I'd lost 19 pounds pre op and I've lost 16 post op. Slow and steady wins the race. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm so happy for you Kathy....what an awesome boost (pun intended) And you can say whatever you want Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I need you to leave this on a voice mail for me so I can just listen to it over and over lol I know this. I have been listening to the wisdom from you and a few other veterans and I know it intellectually. I can not tell you how much I appreciate you guys and the knowledge you continue to share even when sometimes it doesn't seem appreciated I've always been a quick loser (and a horrible maintainer) and now post surgery it seems soooo slow. Just trying to remember that even slow loss is loss. And my real life mentor keeps telling me - as long as you stick to the plan, these pounds are gone for good I'll take that.

I was worried about the same thing - and mine were really stuck - like no loose edges even. The only thing that pinched a little was them being able to get a grip on an edge. Once they got an edge up the rest peeled off with no pain at all. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I just started using 8Fit. It's an app - I just use the free version but I find the workouts to be quick and you don't need anything fancy to do them. I have a gym membership but I actually am really enjoying the workouts on this app. I'm only 4 weeks out so this seems like a great way to get started Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

It's funny - I was just talking about this with my girlfriend and though David Bowie/Squeeze was my first concert in a major venue - I vaguely recall seeing Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Smiths in the early 80s. The 80s are kind of a blur. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

David Bowie in 87 with Squeeze at Giant Stadium. Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam opened for them. WTF? It made no sense then... And I haven't figured it out since. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was certainly irritable on chantix when I took it... However I am easily irritated anyway so most people didn't notice lol. All I remember about the dreams was that they were extremely bright and colorful but just that. Like going from an old black and white tv to a hd tv. I remember chantix as being mostly a deterrent for me. Once I was on it - if I smoked a cigarette I got nauseous. Therefore I lost the desire to smoke because I didn't enjoy it anymore and hated that it made me feel sick. A side note because I saw someone mentioned Wellbutrin. It just didn't work for me the way it was supposed to. I kept smoking right along side taking it like it was nothing. But I cleaned the f*ck out of my house. Seriously I cleaned so much that by the end of it I literally had empty closets in my tiny 1922 house. Best side effect ever. My sister calls it the Wellbutrin cleaning service Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I smoked for 24 years. Two packs a day. Get chantix. It works. I didn't even really want to quit when I did and it still worked. I can't even imagine how tough it is to have to deal with quitting smoking on top of surgery prep - but both are worth it in the long run. Good luck - you can do this!

It's great for the buyer - not so much for the seller! I sent in 20 items - I got paid $21.00 for all of them - they then listed them all for $15-30. Not worth it - I'd much rater donate them. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App That's where my laziness shows lol - I donate everything - I work with a super needy population so anything I get comes to work and goes to my families. But I love shopping with them. However I have heard that they are not good to sell to...

I personally am a giant fan of thredUp.com I've gotten some great deals (4 pairs of jeans for 17 bucks. A winter coat for 25 etc) and everything I have bought is in excellent condition. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

They go to "G" by me... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Yup. Doesn't cut it.... 36J. At my lowest weight I went down to a 34 J but I haven't been lower than a j cup since I was about 16. Considering a reduction once I get to goal but I hear you lose a lot of sensation with reduction and I'm not sure if that's a trade off I want to make. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Looked up soma and found one about 25 minutes away... They don't carry my cup size Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I couldn't wait to get rid of those blood thinner shots! Congratulations - you are doing great! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Ramsey, NJ? I'm on Long Island but if that's the one it looks like he is worth traveling for.... I have a while before I'm ready - but did I find the right one? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App it seems like a lot of people on the East Coast go to Dr. Capella in Ramsey or Dr. Michaels in Maryland. They both specialize in people who've had massive weight loss, and they both have stellar reputations. I'm considering both of them (as well as a couple others), and I live in the Midwest.... Thanks for the info.... I am literally only three weeks out from my sleeve but I see this being a definite possibility in my future. I looked up Capella today and was impressed with what I saw about him. Even though I am a Long Islander I work in the Bronx so he really wouldn't be terribly inconvenient. Good luck to you on your decision -
