KENTUCKY Sleevers?!!?



Recommended Posts

I am looking into the sleeve with Dr. Oldham out of Etown. Surgery to be done at Baptist East. Anyone else in the Louisville - Etown area? I am looking for feedback on the BlueGrass Group in Etown. Thanks!

Just wanted to say hi. I'm from Campbellsville, but I am currently working out of Portland OR. I just got sleeved in June. It was the best decision I ever made. Wishing you the best of luck on your journey!

I am pre-op (self-pay) and don't yet have a scheduled date. I am in Danville. My surgeon is Dr. Weiss at Georgetown Bariatric.

I'm Sarah, I'm from Brownsville, KY and I'm scheduled for surgery in March of next year. I'm just getting started. I'm looking for fellow sleepers to take to. Good luck to you! :-)

I'm Jenny, live in Louisville, I don't have a surgery date yet because I have to do the 6 month diet before insurance will approve it. I'm seeing Dr. Oldham and surgery will likely be at Baptist East. I go for my endoscopy next week!

I live in Lexington and Derek Weiss did my sleeve in Georgetown on December 1. Down 56 pounds and things have gone exceptionally well but I would love to be in a face to face group with others in Kentucky or greater Cincinnati. The online world has been a tremendous help but I would be willing to travel once a week to meet with others in the same boat or who have been through parts of the journey that I have not visited yet. Also I like helping others who have not made into the process or not as far along as I am. Please let me know if anyone is interested.

I can find us a meeting place in Lexington if anyone is interested.

I am interested in meeting but will need to wait until after my surgery. I have a difficult time traveling right now. Keep me posted on your plans.

I am 2 months out and self paid. Went to a wonderful doctor in NC Dr Ryan Heider. Would be happy to share experience. Very glad I did it but not without a quirk or two.

I'm in Western KY - So. Indiana area. Anybody from around these parts? I'm looking for a support group to attend at least once a month or more. Got my surgery date in February and looking forward to starting this new journey!

Hey all. Dr. Steiner will be doing my sleeve on February 19. I am very excited, and a little scared, to be honest. It seems like it will be a lot of work, but also very rewarding. My sister had the bypass over a year ago, and she has lost 100 pounds, so hopefully I'll have her luck. Don and Randy - I'm in Lexington as well, definitely interested in starting a small group!

      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! 😞
