I live in okc and just curious if there are any other Oklahoma sleevers on this site.

Yes Dr Toby Broussard at Weight Wise in Edmond has a great rate. I was going to use Dr Ariel Ortiz at Occ but after the discounts from Weight Wise, I'll be spending the same price as mexico including flight so I'm staying local.

I was going to go to Mexico if my insurance denied me. But, thankfully I didn't have to. I had surgery at Bailey's on 2/21. I feel so blessed to have been able to stay here. Good luck to everyone....

Oklafarmgal, how are you doing? Are you still feeling okay?

Yes, Kimmy, I am doing great. I went to my first post op appt yesterday. I have lost 28 pounds. That is the preop diet and the two weeks after surgery. Dr. Katsis said it was "excessive". Lol......He said I needed to eat more. I have NEVER been told that in my life. I can't eat any more, that's all I can hold. How are things going with you? Good, I hope. Thanks for asking....keep in touch...

That's great to hear! Lol, that's too funny:) Keep up the great work!

I had one with him at 9am and he was still in surgery. So i was not able to stay. I have lost 52 including pre op. And I'm 9 weeks out. Saw Lisa @ Dr Kirks office today and she told me to increase my Protein. But other than that... Things are good

Sounds like you girls are doing great! Wow 51 and 52 pounds. That is awesome! Congratulations!!!

Nice to meet you Alisha! I'm Ashley! Congrats on your WLS glad to hear you are doing well!

I'm doing great Megs! Welcome Alisha! We have a great group of Okie's......Megs, I finally found a protein drink I can drink. I was so excited. I have spent a ton of money trying to find something. I tried the Premier Protein from Sam's and to me, it just tastes like chocolate milk. I was scared to death that I would be bald headed in about 4 months because of not getting my protein. Hope things are going good with everyone!!

Oh honey... You have not even started loosing hair yet. It's ridiculous and annoying. It doesn't matter if you get all of your protein in or not... It's gonna go. Get and start taking bioten now and maybe it will not be as bad
