Looking for people in the Albany,NY area. I will be sleeved October 9th, by Doctor Singh at Albany Medical Center.

Thank you. I'm sorry your nauseas though. You would think they would have made your diet instructions clear to you. Man, it could only get better right? I hope so

You could always bake them something or cook a dinner for them to enjoy as a couple? Really thoughtful gifts without the large cash aspect

Yeah, I was a little disappointed in the hospital staff this time. I've had 5 major surgeries in the last 3 1/2 years (not counting tissue expander/implant swap, port placement, port removal, and chemo!) I'm on a first name basis with some of the staff!

Those are great ideas. He is diabetic and she has inoperable cancer. She still works evenings. I would love to do something special for them. I will give the dinner idea some thought for one of her nights off. Thanks!

Groupon has some amazing deals. For my friend whom was there for me non stop through my surgery, pre op and post op I got her a groupon for a resteraunt, I love groupon! Lol.

~Update~

I am somewhere where I never thought I would be. Four months ago day of sleeve I was over 250 pounds. I do not weigh myself at home, I consider the scale my enemy, so I only weigh in at doctors. Well, I am now not only in 'onederland', but then then half of it! Weighed in today at 147!!! The sleeve was and is the best decision I have ever made! Think of you guys and wishing you nothing but success!

One week post OP here in Albany. I bought about $60 worth of whey products. Ready To Drink shakes. I cannot drink them. Is anyone out there interested in these products? Four have been opened but never drank out of, I poured into cups. Three unopened ISOpures. I don't want anything for them. I just want them to get used.,

Since having emergency gall bladder surgery last week, shakes and yogurt are all I can tolerate right now. Are you around Albany? Email me: brickhouse@outlook.com. I'd be happy to take them off your hands!

I had to stop back in to say, Kyle, you look fantastic! Wow - you are just a shadow of your former self! You must feel incredible. I know with only 50 lbs. gone, my feet, ankles, knees, back... everything hurts less! Be very proud!

Thanks Brick! That really means a lot of me!!! I'm glad your feeling better and many congrats on the weight loss!! Keep up the good work :-)

It is POSSILBE, not confirmed that I may be having a complication with surgery. I go in today for testing at Albany Memorial at 1:30. Not going to get into it because it could be nothing and just be a worried doctor, but we will see. Wish me luck :-)

Oh, NOO! Keep us posted. Thinking of you.

I go in Monday and then on Wednesday for more testing. Suddenly there is now something wrong which I had no clue of. They may have removed to much of my pouch, or something of that sort. Ugh :/ Had more blood work done as well. Testing all next week and when results are in they will determine if I will be admitted to Albany Medical or not, which it seems what they are leading towards. I will keep you guys posted. Once again....ugh

Thanks for the thoughts Brick :-)

What are you experiencing that they think might be a problem?

WTH??? You seemed to be doing so well. That just totally sucks.
