Has anyone out there been sleeved or going to be sleeved by Dr Curry? I hear most people talking about Dr Alvarez in Mexico, but haven't heard anyone with the same surgeon as me.

Thank goodness! How are you doing so far? I was getting nervous not ever hearing of anyone who had Dr Curry.

I'm doing really good. I'm almost 6 months out. I have lost 50 lbs. I was in his office on Wednesday for my 6 mth appt. he popped his head in to say hi. Normally I just see the PA and NUT. Have you gotten a date yet?

Do a search on dr curry and you will find other patients on this site.

Did you use Dr Curry?

Yes. I used dr curry. I'm still happy with my results. I'm about 8 months out. I started at 230 per op. I'm staying around 175. My goal is 170. I haven't gotten there yet. But I have been bad lately. I was on vacation in Cancun a week ago and did indulge in some things that I shouldn't have, I haven't even exercising neither. I'm 5'4".

After the insurance co approved me I was schedule really fast. But I decide to wait till after the holidays. Honey I can eat everything now. LOL. I had a problem with eggs for a while but now I'm good. I was sore for a couple of weeks. My problem was I had no energy. I wasnt getting my fluids in. I only took 2 weeks off work. My first week back to work was hard but I did okay. This site was a big help.

Yes this site is great! It makes me feel better talking to someone that had used Dr. curry. Did Dr. curry make you do the 2 week Protein diet only?

I only had to do one week pre op diet. I lost 10 in that week. The foods was medifast. It was just ok.

Your pictures look great! I saw the foods they sell there and wondered which way they made the diet. I think they said mine will be 2 weeks

Thanks.......I still go there to purchase some things. I think I lose when I have one of their products a day. It's hard for me to get in the 60 grams of Protein. I like the hot chocolate. The Fruit drinks. And the vanilla wafers.

Surgery is set for Oct 3! Did Dr Curry use staples on your stomach that you had to get removed?

That is wonderful... It will be here before you know it. Nope he didn't use staples. He use the dissolvable stitches.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
