Recommended Posts

It's very hard !!!!! I was just put on mushy/soft foods and I don't even want to eat. I am not getting in enough Protein though !!! My nut said in order to get the weight coming off you have to get it in! Thus why I haven't lost for a week. It's def a decision I don't regret. Are you excited ???

How are you feeling now?

Awesome! I never felt any pain, never even used my pain pump in the hospital or filled my prescription. I've been back to my stay at home mom duties since day 3! The hardest part has been my mental battle with trying to overcome my food addiction.

I live on Long Island too and wanted to jump in and join the conversation (this is my first post on this site)

I am 3 months in to my 6 month supervised weight loss and will be using Dr. Roslin at Lenox Hill in NYC. If all goes as planned, I am hoping for a November surgery date. I keep thinking that this is the last summer being overweight and uncomfortable!

What support groups does everyone go to? I would love a mentor through this process.

My nut who works with all north shore patients said north shore is very strict with post op foods. Like 2 months on liquids or something...that being said...my nut has only worked with north shore patients and thinks the drs there are awesome...I went 2 winthrop with dr barkan and he was fantastic...no issues at all...dr braithwait is the head of the deartment at winthrop and here from many that he is the best both professionally and personally...

I would love the nutritionist's number. I went to the one in my surgeon's office but that is in the city, I would love a referral here in long island and Syosset is close to where I live.

My surgery is next week! If anyone would like to get together for a sleeve support group, let me know. We can find a place and meet, talk and help guide each other.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
