Hi everyone,

My name is Jen and I'm from NJ. I had VSG on August 3, 2011. In Sept. I developed a leak which nearly destroyed me mentally. I'm still having some issues from it - hoping my doctors can figure out what to do. Anyway, I'm glad to be a member here and getting to know you all.

Hi Realwmn, Yes I'm having my surgery at the Valley Hospital in Ridgewood sometime in March hopefully. I have already been approved just finishing up some preop testing. Hope everything goes well for you in Mexico. I have heard so many wonderful things about having it done there. Best wishes! :)

P.S. Make sure you join our jersey group in the groups section :D

Thanks everyone. I had my surgery at Robert Wood Johnson in Hamilton. My surgeon was Dr. Noyan. He's a great guy and I felt very comfortable with him. I'm seeing him tomorrow to go over my CAT results - hopefully all is well.

Jen

      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! 😞
