Recommended Posts

Looking for local mi support :)

I'm in Michigan I had my sleeve done November 26, 2012! I have been hoping to find "local" support. I am learning how to use this app also. How are you doing with everything?

Hi my name is Jamie, I had a FANTASTIC Dr, her name is Dr. Karen McFarlane in Port Huron, Mi. I had my surgery on 11-26-12. I feel great and I am excited to find a Michigan section just to know there are other people that have this procedure out there is great. So many people are so secretive around here. It's personal, I know but it would be nice to problem solve with someone else that's had this procedure. Looking forward to talking to some of you! :)

I was sleeved in July with Dr. Pop (Poplawski) at Barix in Ypsilanti. He is awesome. I live near Ann Arbor, and just today reached a BMI in the normal range weighing in at 145 from 218 at my highest before surgery, My personal goal is 130-135.

I would love to have a local sleeve buddy!

I'm doing well! 13 days out - first weigh in is Wednesday! Erica is great - she is not my post sleeve NUT, but I have sought her advice before regarding nutrition. She is very knowledgable!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
