1Mari_sunflowerGood Morning and Happy Hump Day! I am not feeling it today. I really don't feel like going into the office. It looks like a light & easy day but I am still just not in the mood for a commute in the rain. QOTD: What's something you tried because…
Queen JBGood Morning all! My job is totally a feast or famine situation. I was bored and nothing was happening until yesterday when all the things happened and I left with an inbox full of emergencies. I am going to take the super early train and hope to get a few…
Queen JBMorning all! I hope everyone had a great start to the week. Work was fine, and the work on the house was not too disruptive (unless you are a cat) but then I got a text from my mom that she was in the ER. I guess she fell on…

Good morning ~ Yesterday, oh boy. I had a lovely day, I took care of business and my facial was amazing but I hit the wine and snacks hard last night. I have since cleared the house of those treats and am ready to start a new day on track.…
Amy LizGood Morning and Happy Friday! I have all kinds of exciting news. First, dad is home! I have no idea how he managed to go straight from ICU to home, but he did. The nurses were probably like - GET HIM OUT, lol. My other exiting news is that after…
Queen JBGood Morning and Happy Friday! I am beyond happy that we are here. It was a long week at work and home. I miss Grim! He'll be home late tomorrow night and I am so happy to have him back. He's going to have to fight the cats to get…

I am a bad blogger honestly. I don't do much Facebook, Instagram or ticktock... Now for some reason I do like Twitter now known as X. I am 19 years out from WLS. OMG. Can I say this is the best thing I ever done for myself... yes. My…

Surgery was 9/11/24. I was very nervous just prior to going into the operating room, obviously, but Baranov’s team was very thorough and made me feel at ease. They reassured me, kept me informed and answered all of my questions. I am very happy with my experience. I look forward…

Well, almost 3 years again since I last posted - time flies, life goes on, we hit our obstacles and find paths around them! I'm now 4 years past my HPV P16+ Squamous Cell Carcinoma Throat Cancer diagnosis and treatment and still in remission! Oddly enough, one of the biggest…

I have malabsorption syndrome and need to find a specialist to help me treat it.

Wow. It is hard to believe that TWENTY YEARS have passed since that life-changing day. I'm not the poster child for surgery by no means. I'm about 30 pounds over my "comfortable" weight. I'm also about 40 pounds over my lowest. That's a hard pill to swallow, sometimes, honestly. You…

Wow the time has flown by. I have to admit I gained weight back due to my own not worrying about myself and taking care of my mother. I became very sedentary and packed on 40 lbs over 7 years. But I'm ok and losing again. Starting college in 20 days…

Seems like I've been drinking water all day. 64 ozs so far and I'm gonna struggle to get my protein in later on. I have gotten about 25 grams so far today. Guess I'm destined for protein powder.

Hey y'all, I'm back! Needless to say I've slacked on my weight and went back to my old habits. I'm finally getting started on getting back to where I was a few years ago. It's been a rough 5 years and I put on more pounds than I want. Hope…

When I arrived to the hospital I weighed almost 800 pounds (797 pounds). But in a week I managed to lose 55 pounds and the hospital has agreed to get me down to a more manageable weight (hopefully under 500, haven't been under 500 since I was 11). Wish me…

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Choi. The entire process was incredible, and I am truly grateful for the care I received and the results achieved.
Dr. Ferzli is very precise and effective in his practice. He has always been willing to answer my questions. He is very informative and efficient and a surgeon who is available. For any future patients, this program works wonders if you do your part. Karen, Nicole, and Cameela were very…
Dr. A completed my surgery March 2024 and it was a wonderful experience. I read and watched a lot of videos before my procedure and had actually booked an appointment with a clinic in the US. But after I found Dr. A, I knew I wanted him to do my…
Dr Choi is excellent at explaining and helped me with an issue with a previous surgeon. Prevented me from seeking another surgery. I am fine.
Dr. Alvarez is an amazing surgeon who provides exceptional care. I had the best experience and am doing fantastic with zero issues 3 months after surgery. Dr. Alvarez and staff provide great information so you know exactly what to except. My only regret is not having surgery sooner!
