I live right outside Pittsburgh in West Mifflin, PA. Right by Kennywood Park if you have heard of it. Allegheny County. Good to see some other PA folks on here.

Just saw your post now. I had my sleeve done at Magee Women's Hospital with Dr. McCloskey.

I had my sleeve at Sewickley with Dr. Askherili. I am sure that I misspelled his name.

Lorie I live in Cranberry Twp and am having mine done by Dr. Eid at Magee on Oct 24. How long ago did you have your surgery? How did it go?

Lorie I live in Cranberry Twp and am having mine done by Dr. Eid at Magee on Oct 24. How long ago did you have your surgery? How did it go?

I had my surgery July 26th. It went great. No complications any my surgeon said everything went perfectly. My surgery was scheduled for 1:30pm but I went under more like 4pm. I didn't get into my room until 8pm or so and I pretty much was out of it until the next day. I had a really had time shaking off the anesthesia and couldn't get my fluids in so they kept me 3 nights instead of 2. But, the second day was so much better. Once I got home, I recovered fast. No issues so far and I am 11 weeks out today.

Good Luck with your surgery and please feel free to ask me any questions that come up. Sometimes I get better answers on here than from my surgeon.

This is great to hear and you're doing so well! On this forum I also met with a woman that lives in Cranberry and she had her surgery a week ago now at Magee by the same surgeon I'm using, Dr. Eid. She is also doing extremely well. You ladies put me at ease (somewhat! LOL) with all the positive stories!

      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.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
