I'm in Maryland...Baltimore County. I will be having my surgery at Bayview Medical Center. I have my last weight management appointment on August 18th. I have already completed my psych, nutrition and cardiac appointments. I'm somewhat excited but apprehensive. It would be great to have mutual support close by. [emoji846]




Yes, keep in touch.

Hello....my name is Tamie. How did your surgery go with Dr. Green? I had my consultation with him the beginning of July 2017. I'm now in the process of getting all my test done and waiting for my insurance to approve the surgery.




I will definitely be calling you. I live in Elkridge which is not far from bmore, between Columbia mall and Arundal mills. Tamie 410-292-8420

Hi everyone. I too am in the MD area, Annapolis. I am having my surgery with Dr. Brebbia in Washington DC. Scheduled in early September. How is everyone doing? I am very nervous but I have been waiting to have this gastric sleeve now for a while. Looking forward to it.

I live in Elkridge too. I work out at the YMCA on Montgomery Rd. Let me know if you ever need a work out buddy. My surgery date is 8/18th but I'm having mine at Walter Reed.

Wow I've been on this site for about 3 months and never see anyone close to me. It's always Southern md. Glad to know I'm not alone. Good luck with your surgery. Let's keep each other posted.

30 years in MD (Sykesville/Eldersburg) but I moved to Colorado last year Good luck to all of you! I've enjoyed the nostalgia of listing all those places. I am pre-op here in CO, but wish I had done this years ago in MD when a doctor first suggested it!

Good luck to you as well. And better later than never. It's great you are getting sleeved now. All that matters is that you are doing in now. Where are you in your pre op process?

Thanks....trust me I tried to get my insurance to pay, but my employer opt out of weight loss surgery. I figured I'll get a loan through care credit. I generally invest in other things, so I'll invest in my health. Thanks so much. Good luck to you! Keep in touch

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
