Dr. Gerald Kirshenbaum - Considering Dr. Kirshenbaum

Hi my Denver friends!

Sometimes I wonder if its worth taking vacation - I have up to my ears in alligators since my return. I'd love to join you all on the "gambling junket" in November, if there's room in the car.

I'm going to try and attached two photos. One is from July of 2008 and the other is from July 2009. Hopefully, you all can see a difference...I'm down 50 pounds between the two.

Mary

Oops! I am working extra that night and won't be able to join! We are crazy busy and I need the money, so I volunteered without checking my scheduler! I'm sorry!!

I think Snowgator, Laptastic and Kayleighsmommy are going to be there. Anyone else?

I'm a "for sure" for Red Robin on Sunday. 7pm, right? I'm also up for the gambling trip. I can drive and fit three people besides myself very comfortably or four if we all lose ten pounds by then.

You're hilarious!!! I'll try to lose 10 lbs by then! BUT I can take 7 including myself in my Highlander. I've never used the 3rd seat, but I'm willing to give it a go!

I'm a for sure too :confused:

Lucky girl! I wish I was going to Red Robin! I am so hungry for a good salad! Yum!

I'm at work tonight! The 2nd of 4 and I am so ready to go home! It is 0149am and I am done! Spent! Exhausted!

Hi Ladies,

I am jumping on your bandwagon, if there is room (?)....My surgery with Dr. Brown in Denver is set for Sept 1st., and so I am a total newbie hoping to learn from you all.

New as I am, I got to have lunch with KayleighsMommy yesterday after my first meeting with Dr. B! I am so grateful for her efforts to reach out and help me! Thank you KayleighsMommy! How cool to meet IRL. She told me a little bit about you all and the Red Robin meetings - I look forward to meeting you some day when I return to Denver for one of my fills.

Counting down the days until this surgery!!!!

Have a great weekend!

Welcome Colorado! I just met with KayleighsMommy at Red Robin tonight. She mentioned you. Let us know when you're back in town and we can do an impromptu Red Robin get together.

Hi friends.

I have some late night work I'm doing. Funny thing, since I got out of the hospital hubby NEVER complains anymore about my nocturnal habits, lights on..tv on..he can't sleep..., he seems grateful just to have me here. Nice feeling.

I am so game for RR but I'll have to hold you all in my heart as school starts on Thursday for me. I miss you all so much my banditos.

Theresa you are funny..getting us to all lose ten lbs for the gambling trip..ha. Now there's a girl who is dedicated to gambling.

I was thinking how nice it would be to invite Dr. K to one of our gatherings waaaaaaaaay in advance of the actual gathering so we could plan a time that is good for him. I owe so much to that man I can't begin to describe it.

We also should do a cruise together. There has to be more of us out there that can piggy back together and do some lovely cruise someplace.

Greetings to the newbie. Welcome to our Dr. K banditos. Colorado is an awesome state and I am envious that you live there.

Mem620 your hooters are going down and your face is getting some structure to it. You do look different. I love your top, I have one just like it...smiles.

I'm making my school shopping list now. My pens that I can't do without, notebooks, binders, and all that stuff.

Everyone have a great week.

Love to all.

Patty

Patty, besides gambling, I also love cruises. Especially cruises with casinos on board.

I started back to school last week! The summers keep getting shorter. Don't you hate the first few days of school? Teachers talk the entire time and my shoulder kills me until about week three.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
