You need a referral. I would ask your primary. I've heard good things about both in MN and FLA.

We have a campus in phoenix Arizona too. I work at the Florida campus. If you are near florida call 904-953-2000 and ask to speak to someone in the central appointment office. They'll tell you exactly what you need to do.

Thank you to all for your support and information...I'll be going to uw Madison university hospital next, there's a doctor there who has pioneered nerve pain treatment( love Google). And if they can't help me, it's off to mayo. By the way....I'm proud of all of us...doing great! I'm going to start really focusing on feeling good rather than how I look. So, I'm wrinkly, I can walk and swim, and I look pretty damn good in clothes. I'm 48, wrinkles were going to happen; now I'll be around to enjoy them!

Idk about u guys but..my butt hurts every time I sit for more than a few minutes! I don't miss being fat but I miss apparently having enough cushion back there to not make sitting down literally a pain in the rear! Car rides..work when I am sitting..it all pretty much sucks! Tell me I'm not the only one?? I love my new body..just not having to sit for long periods of time!!

I was the girl once nicknamed..."Big booty Judy." Needless to say that doesn't apply anymore.

Ok I have finally found a pic of when I really was at my heaviest. It was my husbands cousin who took it without me really knowing it cause I avoided pics at all cost. I kinda didn't really have many reference pics. I started crying seeing this. This reminds me just how wonderful rny was for me..not counting the curing sleep apnea and all the other health stuff. 13 more lb to my personal goal even tho my dr thinks I could still get a bit smaller..I think it just might be possible!

I do :) I honestly am trying hard to focus on the positive after losing the twins. Things still feel crazy and hurt so bad but there's still some good left in my life. I have my hubby and son and I can say I am blessed no matter how bad losing the babies hurt. If I ever get these hormones right...idk...at least I know I can get pregnant now. Rny was a success.

I admire your positive attitude, especially in the face if such a loss. I think of you often, and your family is in my prayers.

      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?
