Dr. Carl Weiss - carl weiss



Recommended Posts

I had my band placed by doctor Carl Weiss may 21st 2008 and I have nothing to say but good things about him and his amazing team he works with. They are ALL very supportive and have truly given me my life back. I started at 343lbs and im now down to 218lbs.

With this team of caring people you get support groups every Wednesday , a Nutritionists that's very easy to get a hold of and even an appointment with a Physical Therapists to start you off on easy but effective exercises. The surgeon Doctor Weiss is simply amazing and i suggest auburn for anyone who is looking to change there lives and work with a winning team.

I also have Dr. Weiss and the team there is great....I feel so comfortable there. I remember being nervous at one point pre-op, and Dr. Weiss saying " I'll take care of you" or something to that effect and from that point on I have felt very comfortable and worry free. Family asked if I was worried about surgery and I was like "Nope, I have God and my surgeon taking care of me, not nervous at all." I wasn't even very nervous day of surgery. I would recommend the team in Auburn and Dr. Weiss to anyone....but just remember u are in control and must do the work...as Dr. Weiss emphasizes...the band is a tool, not a magic bullet...you have to eat as directed and exercise.

Good luck to anyone starting their journey. I am about one year out and would do it all over again in a minute...loving my journey. I'm down about 70 lbs in first year and that is without exercising for two months due to tendon issues in left foot.

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
