Hey ppl. Anyone interested in doing pics? I recently got back into photography. I am 13 mon out and as part of my biz approach, I want to work with bariatric patients and photograph their before and/or after photos. I know what it's like not wanting to be in pics. Lol. But now I jump in every opportunity I get. If interested then let me know. Plward14@yahoo.com

That's an amazing idea!! I was sleeved on June 26, 2013 so mine wld be after. Would you do them in completely after the weight loss or in stages?

I had a 40 which i think is the largest.I think how they use the bougie and whether or not they leave itin when stapling makes a difference. You can get the same size sleeve if you used 2 different size bougies if you have different techniques. I think that is a good question for the surgeon when you meet them.

I was sleeved by Dr. Yoo 3 months ago, am down 48 pounds, feeling great and love my sleeve!! I wish I had my band removed and got sleeved sooner.

Dr. Yoo is awesome. He takes all the time needed to explain everything you want and need to know.

      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! 😞
