Hello, I live near Cape Girardeau, Mo. I had my sleeve done at DePaul hospital off St Charles Rock road March 5, 2014. My surgeon is Dr. morales. I highly rec. him. My surgery has been so much better than I expected. I have had no nausea at all. Pain has been minimal. Tomorrow is my 1 wk check up. I'm looking forward to being able to add more foods. Broth, jello, and protein shakes are really getting old. I've lost 20 lbs counting the week before surgery. I am surprised that I am hungry a lot of people I read are not. But some post that they also were the first week after. I'm so glad I chose to do this and would do it again in a second!!!

Paulakay I had mines done with Morales to. He is awesome. I was sleeved on the 26th of February. I had to stay an extra day in the hospital cause I was nausea. Couldn't hold nothing down.

I am an hour and a half from downtown St Louis. My Surgeon is located in Washington, MO. and also has an office in O'Fallon, MO. I'm going to Dr. Lisa Hawver. Looking for sleeve supporters/friends. :-) I am 33/female. Single and no kids.

lovinglife28....I had my surgery on Jan 14, 2014, so I'm still pretty new at this. Weight is coming off, slow but still losing and better than I have ever done on my own. I'm not loving my sleeve yet, but I'm sure that will come more in time. Right now I'm still trying to recover and learn how to eat with my sleeve. It's a learning process, but I have faith that it will do like it's supposed to as long as I follow the plan. I see that your planning on having surgery soon. Best of luck to you.

My sleeve was done 1/4/14 down 40# at week 11. From sz.18 to 14 my goal is size 10 bmi 22.0 i live in eldon Mo.

I'm with Dr Morales on Tuesday. Right now I'm kind of dying to eat something real! I can't even watch anyone else eat.

Southeast Missouri. Surgery at St. Francis Medical Center in Cape Girardeau. Surgery was 11/25/13. I have lost a total of 78 lbs from 11/1. I am loving my sleeve but having some blood pressure problems now.

I'm from Independence. Sleeved by Dr. Hoehn June 4, 2013. Down 109 pounds and not regetting a thing!
