My doctor was Ramos-Kelly. He's wonderful and always there for you. I stayed at Nova Hospital and at the Lucerna Hotel very luxurious.

My surgeon was Dr. Christopher Kollar in Saddle Brook, New Jersey. The hospital was Chilton Memorial in Pompton Plains, New Jersey.

Dr. Kollar is a General Surgeon with over 20 years experience. He is kind and compassionate. Chilton is a small hospital, and my experience there was great. Everyone on staff was good-natured, attentive and supportive.

She did an amazing job speaking to my list of concerns/questions in out first meeting. She's hard to understand sometimes but usually my fiancée catches what I don't.

My surgeon was Laura July and the operation was performed at Unity Hospital, Fridley, MN. The hospital was great and Dr. July outstanding - she's very involved in making sure all questions are answered and every aspect addressed. The staff at the hospital were gentle and caring - very enthusiastic about all of us who received bariatric surgery that day and our success.

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?

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
