I am from Aiken, SC! Just got sleeved on Oct 30 and finally have calmed down a little over two weeks out! I was calm but I thought I needed to chew on something in the first week and wanted to so badly! Got some sugar free gum and chewed away after a day or so, I was better.

Had my surgery at Lexington medical center in west Columbia, SC. Dr Marc Antonetti at riverside surgical center is my doctor. Wonderful experience there. My biggest incision is having a hard time but I'll bet that chunk of stomach they removed was big!! Lol!

Worried though as my insurance company is talking about not counting this doctor as preferred provider which worries me because I have follow up visits that I need to have with him. I wish that when that happens, they would have to cover you since no other surgeon will touch it! So I can apply for an extension of service for an additional 45 days but we know that is nothing in this process.

Hi everyone, I'm in Greenville and I'm getting sleeved May 8 by Dr. alejandro lopez Ortega in Tijuana, Mexico. I'm so freaking scared is ridiculous.

Does anyone in the Upstate know of a support group I can join?

Thanks ya'll!

Hello, I just saw that 2 of you ladies were sleeved by Dr Chaudhri in Greenville. I'd love to know how your experience was and also if you were a self pay, what the cost was? Thank you!

I am up there in age, having my sleeve on June 24th @ the mayo. Everybody has an opinion & it's mostly negative & I'm not asking for their advice. I've struggled all my life. I live outside of Hilton Head.

Okay S.C.,

I am 2 weeks out for surgery. I live in Gaston SC really close to Columbia. Getting a little bit antsy. I am so ready, sacred not of surgery so much as what's going to happen after surgery.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
