Hello, I had my surgery on 2/26 so I'm 8 weeks out as of yesterday. I had my surgery at St.Mary's hospital in Grand Rapids MI and Dr.Foote is my surgeon. He's a amazing dr....very caring, awesome bedside manner and just a great surgeon!

I haven't been losing weight super fast like some others but I didn't have a very high bmi. Since surgery day I've lost 45 lbs....I can't wait to get to my goal!

Hey everyone! I'm here in Mi. Band to sleeve revision scheduled for May 16 at Beaumont Royal Oak with.Dr. Krause. I live in Detroit.

Had my sleeve done by Dr. Krause January 24th of this year, he's great!

I'm newly sleeved. I had mine done on March 18th by Dr.Zeni @St.Mary's hospital! Looking for people to chat with about this new lifestyle we have taken on :)

I will be getting sleeved through Dr Zeni on June 12th. Cannot wait n have a couple real good friends who have had huge success at St Mary's with Dr Zeni

I have not had surgery yet. I have switched to Dr. Foote in Grand Rapids, heard so much great feedback about him. I have my appt with him and then the psych tomorrow.

Looking forward to getting on with surgery but because of summer vacations and plans, I probably won't have surgery til August 1. Bummer.

Hi! I have not beed sleeved yet. Dr. Taylor of Barix in Ypsilanti will be my Surgeon. I am scheduled for Sept. 23rd due to him having a surgery himself on God knows what. However, I am taking this time to get my mind in shape.

Sleeved 5/15 in Grand Haven by Dr Foote.

Overall good experience. 5 days out and feeling better each day:)

Can actual swallow larger sips today without a twinge after each swallow.

Trying to wait til my 2 wk follow up to weigh in.
