I emailed her beginning of dec to thank her for helping me with my insurance approval, no reply

Which is unlike her. And then I called Monday to make my week follow up appt and asked for her and she's gone. I didn't ask why tho.

I also just heard that Sabina is no longer there. Don't know why, though. I am sure they will have to get another nutritionist, but hopefully quickly and it is kind of a bummer because it will be a new person to get to know. Sabina was so helpful and upbeat. Hope they can find someone just as good.

Great to hear how well you're doing!

Me!

I had my surgery on 12/26 at overlook hospital in Summit. Doing good so far except for the fact that I am very week. Hopefully my strength will come back soon.

No set date yet but I'm in nnj will be having the procedure done in valley hospital

Has anyone ever had the gastric sleeve surgery with a dr. daniel Herron of the Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhatten ? I have been going for a variety of tests and thus far, have lost 16 pounds in preparation of the procedure...the dr. wants me to lose weight

before he submits it to my insurance company....

I had Julie as my NUT. I like her.

Pre Op: 298lb / Surgery Day: 288lb / Week 1: 278lbs / Week 2: 267.5lbs / Week4: 263.7lbs.

I had the Lapbadn done by Dr. Doug Ewing in Hackensack. After five years and only loosing 44lbs, the device leaked then cracked and I had it removed. Bc I was under the 35 BMI my insurance company denied my Sleeve request. My dr has put me on a weight loss plan. He's put me on Phentermine, and although legal and it doesn't make me jittery, I havent slept well since being on it. I don't like it bc I think its something that only lasts for a short time and when Im off it the weight will come back. I have another Dr. appt on the 19th and I've written down my concerns and how its made me feel.

I wanted to know if anyone else has gone this course, before surgery of course? And if so are my concerns founded or did it jump start your weight loss.
