Yes I've met him once, he laughed at after reading my occupation was a" Domestic Goddess". After that he was all business. I'm not too put off by his shortness. I have one appointment with him before my pre open appointment which is weird since my insurance approval hasn't been sent yet. Guess that's how southcoast works.

Dr. Kruger did my sleeve and I agree he doesn't have the best bed side manner. From people I know that work with him say he's like that because he is a good surgeon and he knows it. He was very nice to me when I saw him in the hospital. A little more talkative and stayed more than 2 minutes.

Dr Streeter did my sleeve. He and his staff were great! My roommate was a nightmare, BUT I've lost 100 pounds! Last summer sucked but this summer has been amazing so far!! Going to the beach all the time, lobster salad and I even had my first drink since surgery. ( a lite Cosmo )!

Life is good :)

Hello Missy815

Did you have to do a liquid diet for southcoast? I am down 14 pounds was told by a NP unless I was 400lbs or more not to worry about losing a large amount before surgery. She just said keep losing and don't worry about it.

I didn't have any pre-op liquid diet for Dr. Kruger. The only dietary restrictions they put on me pre-op was the day before surgery: nothing but liquids after noontime, and absolutely nothing after midnight.
On my own, I did give up coffee and tried to eat healthier between April (my first consultation) and my surgery date (which ended up being in July of last year). I lost 18 pounds pre-op that way.

      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
