@@evann_rn Dr. Thomas is the one who performs the sleeve surgery @ SAMMC. He is Awesome!!! Also don't forget to join Fort Sam's Bariatric Facebook page! I think the organizer of the site has to approve you.

Thank you, just requested to be added to the group. I have the 4 hour class on Feb 4th. I have some of the requirements done already... so I'm hoping I can get through the requirements fairly quickly!!

. I attended orientation in June, then finished all the rest of the requirements by September. I could have gotten the surgery earlier but wanted it over Xmas break so I wouldn't have to use my vacation time.

I am also using Dr Reiss. I am in month 2 of my 6 month diet. My first appointment with her is in May. How is she? I did a lot of research but haven't talked to anyone that actually used her. I just emailed her and a few other doctors for over a year asking questions.

I live in Austin, but am actually getting my surgery in San Antonio. Who was your surgeon and how are you doing post op? [/quote.

I had my surgery with Dr. Dana Reiss here in SA, who is going to do yours and when? I have been doing pretty good post op, it can be a challenge and balancing act not to mention new learning experience all at the same time.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
