Recommended Posts

I'm in Concord too, haven't had it yet, but will be making my appt with the surgeon next week. I have already done 7 months of medical diet plan so anxious to find out what else I will need to do to have it. I'm hoping to get in soon with dr Bauman

I am in Albemarle (Stanly County). I have surgery in Concord with Dr. Bauman on August 29th, 2013.

Did you like Dr Bauman? Any advise for a newbie. I have gone to one of his seminars already.

Live in Rock Hill, work in CLT. I was sleeved 12/31 at CMC MERCY by Dr Vilanuejva with Carolinas Weight Mgmt.

I also live in Rock Hill and work in Charlotte. Had mine done 10-15-12 by Dr. Vollenger with Southeast Bariatrics. Lost from 239lbs to 177lbs the first year, had some "life issues" and am at 192lbs today. I am back on target with eating and exercise again and have lost 7lbs since Christmas :)

The sleeve is like any tool, it does not work if not used properly. I am happy to be using it correctly again and am determined to meet my goal weight by this time next year :)

Thats great that youve gotten back on the right track!! But Im curious what you were doing to gain weight? Just eating the wrong kind of food? I hear you can stretch the sleeve which is what worries me. This surgery was like my last option after all the diets ive tried so Im really worried I will lose the weight now but gain it back later :/ i feel I have so much still to learn about my sleeve!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
