Here in Lakewood we have had steady drenching rain but no flooding. Fiancé works up in clear creek so no work Monday since its been declared a disaster area.

No snow until after 10/12 thank you.

Also my goal for the wedding was 170. I have my final fitting 9/21 and as of today I'm down to 169.

That is awesome! Congrats on hitting your goal (with a good couple of week to go still!) YAY!

Welcome yjt45...

If you look below your profile on your post, and click on where it says "My Surgeon: Dr. Frank Chae" and then look to the left where there is a column of words, one of them will say "patients" meaning who here has listed Dr. Chae as their surgeon and you will see he has 14 patients listed here at VST. Some of them are from this year. You could PM them for personal questions or maybe some of them will find this thread.

P.S. - 10-22 is an awesome date...(it was my surgery date 3 years ago also!) :D Best of luck to you on your journey!

Getting sleeved 10/22 by Dr. Chae in Colorado' date=' has anyone else been sleeved by him?[/quote'] LOVED Dr. Chae from the minute I met him; he was the reason I chose to move forward...so patient, respectful, experienced. Had surgery 06-18-13 at St. Joseph's...it was such a positive experience...fabulous care, patient, cheerful staff; I could go on and on...he gave me such hope! Down nearly 60...still can't believe I did it! Message me anytime for details! (Had a drain, no catheter, steristrips, no staples, etc.)

I have good days and bad days. I developed a stricture and finally had it dilated Monday! They found it at two weeks post op but couldn't fix it because it would have put pressure on the stitches. It's been a hard two months lol. How are you doing? I'd love a workout buddy around here!

Anyone know of a good masseuse in Denver. I am thinking of getting my first massage but am very self conscious of my size extra skin etc.

Wow, sorry about your stricture! I thought they were much more common with the bypass but I have heard of it happening with the VSG. I hope things are better now!

I personally don't like massages but I know a lot of people love Massage Envy. They are everywhere and easy to make an appt. etc.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
