Hi All!

I am very new to this site. I am hoping and praying to get a surgery date soon. Like in first or second week of May. My surgeon will be Dr Morales at DePaul. I live in North County.

Is there anyone out there from the St. Charles County area of Missouri???? I would love to have someone to be a local buddy. Dr. Mario Morales will be doing my VSG at DePaul hopefully in the next 4-6 weeks.

Hi! I am new to this site. I live in St. Louis - North County. Hoping to have my surgery within the next few weeks. I don't have a date yet. But I've completed all my pre testing and just wating to hear back from the insurance company.

I'm having Gastric Bypass and Dr. Morales will be doing my surgery at DePaul.

I know the topic says 'sleevers' but I saw St. Louis and thought I could just jump in and hang out! :rolleyes:

Hi! I had Dr. Morales too. He is excellent! Just to warn you I found out in the hospital that 95% of his patients spend two nights in the hospital. So be prepared. He is very conservative and careful but I think that's good.

Hi everyone,

I live in St. Louis, 55/270 area. Would love to meet you ladies. Maybe we could meet at St Louis bread Company (great Soups and salads) in the middle.

I had my surgery at My New Self with Dr Minkin on March 19, 2014. So far I've lost a fourth grader, 62.5 pounds. LOL

Hi, I would love to meet with both of you.

I feel dr Minkin is a good surgeon. I've had a lot of medical issues since my surgery. It's been a long road back to health.

My email address is happydales@me.com if you would like to message me.

      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?

      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
