Anyone on here in Kansas?

[FireRose 3]

I am with Dr. Hoehn also. Scheduled for January 10. Can't get here soon enough. I am also self pay so things have progressed very fast. I am psyched. I have my second appointment tomorrow and start my preop diet on Thursday.

I have had my first appointment with Dr Hoehn last month. On Jan 7th I go for psych eval and pre-op education class. =)

I was sleeved on 12/26 by Dr Kowalski. I was self pay so the process took about 45 days. I am one week out and down 15 pounds since surgery. 24 pounds down since my first visit with Kowalski. Love my sleeve

I am using insurance. I was denied at first, but approved second time around. I'm going with the bariatric program at Wesley. My surgeon is Nicholas Brown. His office is actually at Via Christi St Francis, but he does the bariatrics for Wesley too. My surgery is Feb 4! It's soooo nice to find a fellow Wichita friend

I'm doing really well. Very little pain. Zero gas issues. The key is walking. I am learning that small bites are much easier to handle Have a positive attitude and you will be fine. Good luck!

I am almost 3 weeks out and down about 31 pounds. Just now adding things to my diet. I still have panic attacks like "what have I done" but over all very happy. I think I will be fine when I can get around better, have more energy and start working out.

We could start a support group for us that live in the kC area.

I'd be all for a support meeting somewhere local. I am only 5 days out. Still pretty uncomfortable and having my moments of regret also. I
