Calling Kaiser Patients



Recommended Posts

I'm meeting with a post-op bariatric team on April 18th. Have any of you already done that, and, if so, how did it go?

The only part of the team with Kaiser that I have met with is the dietician. Kaiser in OC refers out to a bariatric surgeon. ;)

Sleeved 11/26 by Dr Fisher in Richmond. Had a great experience. Wouldn't change a thing

The Richmond program provides so much support and education both before and after surgery. Very impressed!

Although I am still pre-op, I wrote Dr. Im about my progress to reach goal weight. He sent back a quick and supportive e-mail. I'm very happy with how accessible he is.

      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?

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! 😞
