Dr. Gerald Kirshenbaum - Considering Dr. Kirshenbaum

Hi there,

I am considering Dr. Kirshenbaum in Aurora, CO (www.lapbandrockies.com) I know that there are a few of you in LBT that went to him. I am interested in knowing your thoughts on him and if you have had any complications. I am just a little leary since the price is so low, there is little on the internet about him, and I will be traveling from WI to have this done. ;) Any information you could provide would be much apppreciated...

Thanks!

Sheila:)

I can't figure those sizes out either! I got a pair of the Lane Bryant Right Fit Jeans - size 3! BUT now they are too big! I'm trying to find the receipt so that I can return them! I would be happy to get a size two. I really liked the way my butt looked! Ha! 90 days til my surgery! Yippie!

Wow.... a size 2. Great for you. Once you have your surgery shopping at LB will be a thing in the past for you :sneaky: I know you are excited for it..... heck, I am excited for your surgery. Can't wait to see how absolutely fab-u-lous you look :sad:

I don't shop at Lane Bryant anymore, but when I did I HATED their "right size" campain. They wanted to measure me everytime I went to try to find jeans, but I never could find any that fit well after they did that.

Lucky you!!

but when I did I HATED their "right size" campain. They wanted to measure me everytime I went to try to find jeans, but I never could find any that fit well after they did that.

And their sizes are so freakin weird. A blue 7 fit me so much better than a yellow 8 (which were quite tight). :sneaky: Go figure.....

The blue is what I got too, BUT I was thinking a red might be better for me since I have bigger hips and thighs. It's the upside down triangle or is that the right side down triangle. I don't know! I just know I have big thighs! I went yesterday to exchange my 3's for a 2 or 1 and they have that style on sale for $19.99 now. I found some cute blouses and exercise pants for $16.00. I couldn't find my receipt so I had to do an exchange! If I had taken the refund it would have been half of what I originally paid! I hestitated buying jeans since I am not sure what size I'll be after December. BUT I also didn't want to get cheated! IF they don't fit, I'll just take them back again!

I am currently looking for a long nightie - mumu type thing to take to Mexico with me for recovery time. Not that I want to look hideous, but I will need something modest and fairly decent to wear in the hotel room and to venture out for breakfast in the lobby. Yuck! I'm going to be scary! I am pleased, however, that I'll be able to shower by day 3. I'm going to stay in the surgicenter for 3 days. I'm getting excited and scared at the same time!

Can't wait to hear all about your surgery plans, Dee!

My one year bandiversary was Friday. What a long, strange trip it has been.

Also on Friday the hospital I work at closed. RN's out there, if you know of job leads please let me know - thanks.

Thanks for sharing the pics. Best of luck on your surgery.... I'm sure it will be all worth it in the end :blush:

Dee----

You'll get a kick out of this. I was reading posts earlier and Kayleigh pointed to your picture and said "that's you, right?" She was so suprised when I told her it was "Miss Dee" and not me.
