Hello..I am from Lockport.. I was sleeved 3-6 by Dr Caruana..how about you??? :)

Hi pammie!! I was sleeved on 3/4 with Dr. Bala at Niagara Falls Memorial. My recovery is going fantastic. No real issues. I feel basically the same as I did before. How is your recovery going?

Hi buffalonians! Thought I'd check in too.. I am 5 weeks post op today and down 33lbs. I was just cleared for all food and exercise and also told to get my cals up to 1200 a day. No idea how ill be able to take that much in though. I haven't had any nausea or any negative symptoms since I was released from the hospital. I feel totally normal aside from never being hungry which is crazy!
