Allentown as well...it is weird that we don't have as many replies as the other states! I went to LVH with Dr. Boorse....he was amazing and easy on the eyes lol!!

I was going to go to LVH but my work and child care schedule wouldn't allow me to attend all the pre op meetings required. So I decided to go to St Luke's which worked out just great. Had the same anesthesiologist as when I had my daughter so I was thrilled. Loved her! I would love to compare notes on the two hospitals.

Did u schedule ur sleep study yet? They are not fun but well worth it. I feel so rested when I use my nasal pillows. I used to fall asleep driving on 76. Crazy tired!!! Not anymore. I'm from Feltonville area. I'm getting mine done at Mercy Fitzgerald, Dr. Ram. Don't have a set date yet. Aetna is acting up after I completed all my tests, support, exercise, and nutrition classes. It's frustrating but I leave it in God's hands. Wishing you the best with yours.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
