Surgeon Testimonial

Mark A. Shina M.D.
My first impression was in October, to be honest i was not inpressed at all, so i went to other seminars. Today 1-23-07 i went back for a second try with Dr.Shina, today my opinion changed, he was funny and spent lots of time with us today.
His staff is wonderful, Jamie (a friend of mine) and Holly go beyond nice.

    Hi all. As I had posted on the Main Board and Kentucky Board a couple days ago. Missy came through surgery fine. I talked to her hubby again today and he said she did get to come home today. GO MISSY! You will be just fine. I am still praying for you!

    Hello Missy.. I hope you are doing great. I got out today and hopefully I will run into you again. I didn't run into you at the hospital but I am going to pray for you and hopefully you are feeling great and ready to go home soon.. Bethany

    Welcome to the losing side! I was so glad to read that u were doing well! Take care of yourself and allow yourself time to heal. The first 4 weeks were the toughest for me. Give yourtself time to adjust to your new pouch. Getting all the liquids in at first and protein will seem hard but it gets better. U just concentrate on healing!

5 mnths out...
on January 3, 2008 6:31 pm
Today is my 5 mnth anniversary from my surgery...can you believe that? I never would have thought that a surgery could do this to someones life. I feel amazing...my energy level is out of this world. I am down 103 lbs....oh you didnt hear that? Ok I said I AM DOWN 103 lbs...yey me. 
 We went to Gatlinburg for Christmas break, and I walked and shopped and walked and shopped....and it felt amazing. 
  I bought some new uniforms that were long overdue...and I bought X-LARGE......yes!! It was as good as buying a szie 4 in my eyes. I am loving life and looking forward to the future...and Florida in April.
