  • I'm getting sleeved 12/30 thru Lahey Burlington Dr Nepomnashy I have loved my whole team there and the process has been great! Can't wait to stay updated with you as we all start losing in BOSTON!!

  • Good Luck Boston Sleevers. I go for my pre-op testing tomorrow. I think the worst part will be getting through the Boston rush hour traffic.

  • I am going to BWH, on Halloween, hopefully the staff don't dress up or I will really be hallucinating from the medicines or the staff.

I will be going to UMass Worcester. I am still pr op but starting Pre Surgery classes next week, hopeful for early December. Good Luck!

Anxiously awaiting my date...was hoping October, but they have to approve me, "the team", to see the surgeon and we book the surgery at that appointment...I've been bugging the staff cause I can't plan and its driving me crazy!!! Too many holidays upcoming and I want to be well for Xmas. I'm at BIDMC.

That's 3 major Boston hospitals covered! Funny. My husband works for mine, so our insurance is tied into it. Turns out they're also awesome.

I just had mine done at BIDMC 10/15 with Dr. Jones. I work there part time as a nurse.

Hi All. I am having surgery November 7th at BWH. Dr. Robinson is my surgeon. Can't wait till it is done and past the first stage. I am really having a difficult time drinking 64oz of water a day. I generally get half that down a day. I also am discouraged by all the sugar substitutes in protein shakes and foods. I have a sensitivity to them. Tera's Protein is what I have been using. The vanilla is great with PB2 added. I have also purchased Jay Robb but have not tried it yet. I am wondering if blending a shake whips too much air into it causing gas issues after surgery. Some things I have been thinking of purchasing are an ice cream machine to make healthy protein ice cream with skim milk and a Yonanas. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks.

I was sleeved by Dr Nepomnashy on the 14th. Everything went perfect and I was able to go home the next day. Good luck :)
