Any Colorado sleevers?



Recommended Posts

When and where does the group meet at St Joe's? I work there & had my sleeve by Dr. Chae on 9/17/13. Have lost 66# so far.

We meet the second Monday of the month, 6pm in Russell pavilion bldg (ER entrance) first floor Nobel AB room for group conversation. There will be a plastic surgeon who works with bariatric patients at this months meeting.

Hello Colorado peeps!

I am hoping someone can help me find a good resale shop in the Denver metro area? I need some nicer clothes (pant suits, blazers, etc.) for a conference that I have to attend in late February, and I really don't want to buy anything new since I'm still losing and I have a long way to go. I am between 14-16 right now, so I need a shop that has a decent selection of plus sizes. I'd appreciate any ideas that you have!

I wish I could help! If you find a good resale shop, let us know!

I will say I, unfortunately, had to get a size up (eating WAY to much after quitting smoking and prior to surgery) and found that there are some pretty good after holiday sales out there...I got a pair of dress pants at Target (size 16) for $6 and dress sweaters for $5-$7. Good Luck!

I've gone to one called "My Best Friends Closet", they have a store in North Field and another in the Orchard. I've also had great luck at Mile High Thrift Store for work clothes. I started in a 22 and have found Cold Water Creek and LB slacks and jackets in 16's and 18's.

Post op day one. I love the staff at Exempla St Joseph! Had some mild nausea and slimed a few times, but I feel better now.

I really like Unique in Aurora, I give myself at LEAST an hour to go through everything. The only downside to Unique is that you can't return anything. Goodwill I believe their policy is 10 days with tags and receipts.

Where in aurora? What sizes do they carry? I'm soon to be at the point where I will need new staples.

I love in the Westminster area. I was sleeved in Tijuana on January 10. My surgery went well but because of a doctor directed medication order I ended up with a major clot and dead intestine. Has anyone else had extra complications? I get very down that I can't go to the gym. I can't wear a pair of jeans because I have a wound vac on.

Anyone else in Colorado been through something similar?

Just sent you a PM! They carry all sizes but generally their inventory is mostly comprised of S-XL however, they do go up into the plus sizes!

Hello,

I was sleeved by Dr. Brown on Monday February 10, I would be more than happy to help in any way. Yes he is a man of few words, listens very well though and has a staff of wonderful, caring and very knowledgable people.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
