  1. I had surgery with Dr Fitzer, it was 3 years in May. I had an awesome experience with him and his staff.

    Any MAY sleevers???

    Hi! Im doing good....RNY May 7, blood work has come back good every time...still struggle just getting enough water... not because I can’t drink...sometimes I just forget... my heaviest was 401...I was 358 on surgery day...I am now 245. I feel like it has slowed down for me also...next apt is the 7th of May for my 1 year...
  3. I am almost 45. I had gastric bypass on May 7. I wouldn’t change it for anything...and honestly, I wish I would have done it years ago. I started out at 401. And I’m sure there was a time I was prob a little higher than that. I had to lose weight prior to surgery per insurance requirements...so I lost 41 pounds. I was 358 on surgery day. I weighed myself this morning and was 305. I am very picky! The list of foods I don’t eat...is huge! The dietician will help you with that. I had no health issues prior...not one...except for BMI. I have felt fine since surgery...no sickness...as long as you follow his instructions and keep in touch with them you will do great! Good luck!!!

    Yea, I’m definitely not satisfied with how things have happened with PEIA over the past months. Keep fighting!

    I hope yours gets approved. I had no co morbid conditions...only BMI.

    I ended up doing everything they wanted and got approved...my surgery was May 7.
  8. I started at 401 (May 2017). I had to do a year of supervised diet. I was 358 on surgery day. I was 329 on May 31. But I’ve only lost like 12/13 pounds since then. I was 316 yesterday, back to 317 today. I feel like I’ve been back and forth for the last 3/4 weeks. I feel like since I was heavier, I would lose quicker. Im thankful for what I have lost...but worried it won’t work.
  9. Just wondering how everyone is doing?

    That’s awesome!! I had surgery May 7. I was 358 surgery day, 8 pounds higher the day I left the hospital, I guess from fluid and gas...today I was 322.
  12. Congrats!!! That’s awesome!!!
