Dr. Gerald Kirshenbaum - Considering Dr. Kirshenbaum



Recommended Posts

I want to use Dr. Kirshenbaum. Natalie said I need to bring another person with me because "The surgery center will not discharge you to a cab driver because you are under the influence of narcotics (general anesthesia)." But I really have anyone that can come with me. :)

Any ideas?? :thumbup:

Dave~ Wish I could help, but I live in SLC so it's kinda far.

Deb~ Sounds like you guys had a fun day together!

After 2 weeks of fighting and trying to stick to Protein Shakes, and soft/liquid Proteins I had a weak moment last night and ate most of a large oreo shake. Low and behold I think I again have the problem of not getting enough calories, because I have lost 1.5!!!! I am going to try harder to keep my calories up so that I might start losing again. Hope everyone is doing well!!

Well I guess you can put me down for a 0.3 loss. I almos had a gain this week so I shouldn't complain. I lost more today from yesterday, but if I can maintain that it will be on next week's numbers.

Julie, I'm glad to hear everything was ok with your band!

Hey everyone. Hope all are doing great and staying cool. It is a hellish 98 degrees with a feels like temp of 110. Thinking of those cool mountains out there.

Dee..put me down minus 5 pounds. I've got great restriction.

All for now.

Well, I am back from Denver. The surgery went well and the trip home wasn't that bad. It was interesting to have all my liquid drugs bomb tested at the airport. I am sore and I just removed the nausea patch, so my fine vision should return soon. I am also moving towards being able to breathe deeply again. My cats missed me and want lay on me. Nothing is coming back up, so, so far so good. I admire those who can go back to work a couple days after this, but I wouldn't have been able to. I am glad I was able to take the extra time off.

Congratulations on getting your band!!! I am glad that all went well and you are home safe. I needed more time to recover too. I didn't have a job at the time so that helped, but those people who go back in a few days amaze me! I hope your recovery is quick though!

Hi Dee,

Please put me down for another 1 pound loss. I'm happy with that because my b-day was this weekend. We spent the night at Fortune Valley and I ate a surprising amount of crab legs and oysters! Oh well, it was low carb anyway!

Natalie emailed me about a service in the area that will take care of this for $166.00 sounds like a life saver to me! I am really excited now! I can't wait!!!

      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! 😞
