Topic: RE: WLS doctor/ hospital

Nope, haven't heard of this Doc.  Have you also posted on the main board about the doc?  So many folks go on the main sites but not so much on the state sites.

Just a thought.

Topic: RE: Reaching out to Colorado Members

Sorry I didn't respond sooner - just found the CO forum.  I had my sleeve done 1/27/14, already down 25 pounds (including pre-op).  I have been extraordinarily blessed thus far - no nausea, no pain meds needed, no adverse reactions at all, except discovered that no egg whites  make me feel very ill !  Last couple of days have felt a bit under the weather, and just started soft foods a couple of days ago, so not sure if that has something to do with it.

Hope to get to know everyone!

Topic: RE: Lets do a recall

Thank you Carla for chiming in :) I have gained back 20 pounds but believe it is from my thyroid. I have not took the time to get tested but hoping to do that soon :) 

I am wondering if you had yours biopsied before your thyroid surgery or before they found the cancer? Mine was biopsied because of a really big nodule that deviates my esophagus. The test came back no cancer.

I am doing well.  Just had my 3 week post op today.  Just got cleared for soft foods...SO excited.   I have been fortunate to handle all food and drink well but after 2 weeks on a select diet of about 5 foods after 2 weeks of liquids I am ready to try new foods   I am down about 27lbs.  Started a little bit of exercise this past week but taking it slow as I have one incision docs office is watching.   Freezing all the time...   Looks like you are re-connecting...I would say congrats on maintaining your weight loss for 6 years within 15 lbs or so.  Even though the slight gain might be troublesome or frustrating to you I suspect you have kept off a large majority of your loss.   not to mention trying to reverse the slight gain while it's still manageable.   best of luck and keep in touch
