I'm in Dublin, I have my first appointment for the psych evaluation on 1/22. Then six months of supervised dieting (been there done that) and crossing my fingers my insurance will approve me. Hoping to be getting a new wardrobe for Christmas next year! :)

I am just starting the process, hoping to have my surgery next summer. I’m sorry about the pneumonia, that’s no joke! Feel better 😊

Yes I agree. I wish you lots of luck through your journey and if I can ever answer any questions I'd be happy to. Did you say what hospital you are going through? I have Dr. Sonnanstine at RMH.....I highly recommend him.

I am going to OSUWMC to Dr. Needleman. I work there so I don’t have much choice but I’m happy with my choice. I know Riverside is a great hospital though!

That's so funny I work for OhioHealth so that's my obvious choice. I actually started OSU's program 3 years ago and then kinda changed my mind about the whole thing until I've seen more and more amazing outcomes from co-workers.

Haha it’s nice to have the resources we do working at the places that do/will do our surgeries! I only know two people who have had WLS but they were both successful. I didn’t hear about the whole process so this message board has been a godsend.

Hey everyone, I had my sleeve done on 9-12-17. I went through OSU and my surgeon was Dr. Noria. I had the best experience going through OSU and Dr. Noria is an amazing Dr. If you have any questions I am more than happy to answer.

That’s great to hear! How long were you there? How was the anesthesia process and nursing staff?

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
