I'm in Central Jersey also....Manalapan.....my Dr. Is Dr. Doug Ewing from Advance Laproscopic.......

After removing the lapband bc of internal damage it caused bc it broke I was denied the sleeve....my bmi was too low. After the band was removed I gained the weight back and reached 35.2 BMI....the journey is not over bc my insurance UHC wants to see additional problems...my internist believes that with his letter and my six yr struggle I should get approved...but if I don't I too am considering MX.

Good luck and God bless! I had a very good experience with Dr. Noyan - other than I was the last surgery of the day and hadn't eaten or drunk for two entire days! He is super supportive and very encouraging. I am very happy with how my sleeve turned out!

I find the support group helpful, just to be with others who understand what you are experiencing and to get questions answered. Good luck!

I had my sleeve at the jersey shore on the 20th- had my post-op appointment on dec. 26th. was down 10 pounds. I have friends who were down 15-20 but im ok with my 10 because i have less to loose then them. First week i could barely eat a thing- now week 2 all I want to do is eat. I am sticking to the plan, but nervous i will over eat already! every diet has failed, scared this will too.

      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! 😞
