HI Emblem Health - HIP here as well. I'm from Queens. I researched all the HIP requirements and what the dr.'s office failed to notice was that you are required to do a 6 month weigh in with your PCP OR.....3 months with your surgeon. I am doing the 3 months with the surgeon. I have my second month visit on Wednesday. I can't wait to have the surgery already.

I have two Premier Protein shakes a day that gives me 60 g of Protein. The rest comes from meat , fish and cheese as part of my meals. I have a vanilla Premier protein every morning with my 2 cups of coffee. I use it as a creamer.then a shake late afternoon when I get the munchy cravings usually chocolate. The vanilla shake as a Creamer works really well for me. I have my 2 cups of coffee with shake then I drink about 30 ounces of Water. All before lunch. Lunch is usually pretty small because I'm at work . Cheese and crackers or turkey cold cuts rolled up. Late afternoon chocolate shake. dinner 3 ounces of fish or meat and a few bites of whatever side dish I make for my family. That's pretty much it. It's working well.

Hi everyone...I'm in Bx and new to all of this. I had a consult with Marina Kurian. I like her but her staff has turned me off. I actually go back on Tuesday and I'm hoping that it is a better visit. I'm down 10lbs since my initial consultation with her.

Dr. Kurian is great. She was my surgeon. I just so happen to like her staff as well. They've been very helpful. Maybe it just wasn't a good day in the office. Give them another chance. Your experience with her will be amazing.

Thanks for the feedback. Just sitting in a exam room for an hour, being told that someone would call your insurance to see if you do in fact have to wait the 6 months and no one ever calling you back, plus paying $52 in parking because of the wait was just a bit much. But I will give her another chance. From my research it appears she's amazing.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
