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.

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.

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.

      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!

      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!!
