Hi Jeni,

Do you know where I could reach Dr. Shayani now? He's not at Loyola or

Day One Health - but he is on my insurance in network doctor's list.

Let me know as soon as you can. Thanks.

Thanks to Jeni,

I too had my surgery performed by Dr. Shayani at St. James Bariatric Center in Olympia Fields, IL last week Sept. 2nd, 2008. It was by far the best decision I've made regarding my health in a long time. There was practically no pain, just some discomfort. My incisions look like a series of 5 paper cuts,with the exception of the port site -it is the longest and deepest cut.

I've lost 15lbs. since my starting weight 1 month ago. This included the 2 week pre-op diet and the 1 week post op check today! I'm so excited but hungry now - no fill scheduled for 6 weeks by Dr. Shayani.

He is absolutely amazing -the best bed-side-manner you've ever encountered! I highly recommend him.

I was banded at Mercy when they first started about 2 years ago. However, the original doctor has since left, Dr. Bonomo. I feel that they have grown by leaps and bounds with patients. They have lost the personal touch that they use to have. The wait for a fill can be hours. I feel if you have not heard from a patient in months then you should have someone to follow-up on their patients. These are my opinions.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
