Dr. Randall Baker - McLaren Northern Michigan (Petoskey)

I had my surgery in August in Grand Rapids, by Dr. Nagel. I've lost 50 #'s, not as much as I thought I would have lost by now, but I feel great.

I'm doing great. I am 85lbs down. 25 to goal but thats my own fault for not exercising through the fall and winter. I went from 289 (pant size 20-22) to 205 (loose 13/14) and a 2x tee to a L/XL. There's only a few things I can't eat now. Milk, really greasy foods, hot chocolate.... Nothing major. I'm very happy and would go through it all again in a heartbeat! I loved Dr. Baker. He is extremely knowledgable and personable. Kristie, Kate and the rest of the office have all been fantastic. Good luck to you!

I'm 3 days post op. I think Dr. Baker and Kristie did an amazing job. My hospital stay was pleasant Everyone was so nice and helpful.I think the key to everything working is following the Dr. orders.

My starting weight was 293 day of surgery I was 275 day home I was 285 . Surgery 4-1-14 today is 5-3-14 My weight is 257 this morning. So Im very pleased. I have been following my diet but haven't been exercising as much as I should be. 36 lbs in a month and a half is not bad at all.

I am waiting for insurance approval and Dr. Baker will be doing my sleeve soon, I hope. Right now the weather is rough here. I live in Cross Village just outside of Petoskey and Harbor Springs. I been really nervous, but to me Dr. Baker seems nice. Hope to be on the losing bench soon.
