I used Southern Specialist in Slidell. It's on the service road between the DMV and Fremeaux. IT WAS WONDERFUL. I loved loved loved my nurses. I wish I could've stayed longer! Lol. I was so comfortable and NEVER had a minute of pain.

Awesome to hear. I was going to go there originally but decided to check into Crescent City Surgical. Nothing bad about either. Just heard more about CSS. Thank you so much for the input. Hope I have the same great recovery you have had so far!

Hi everyone! I'm outside of Baton Rouge in Geismar. I will have my surgery at ochsner in New Orleans with Dr. Wooldrige. My insurance would only pay 100% if I went to a Center of Excellence. I had to choose between Lafayette or New Orleans. I just received my approval letter on Monday. Yeah!!! My husband finds it strange yet funny that I'm excited to have a surgery. He can loose weight at the drop of a dime and doesn't understand. I'm just trying to be patient and awaiting my date.

I also used Southern Surgical and Dr. Redmann was my surgeon and Southern Surgical was a very awesome place!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
