Topic: BariatricTV Episode 28 - Toga Toga Toga
On this weeks episode, How about a preop Freak of the Week? Ever heard of the Toga Procedure? When and how do you tell folks you’re having surgery?  And a look, and taste, of the new Bariatric Advantage Chocolate Calcium Chews.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Our Freak of the week is….Paula…cause she has the shirt.
  • We never heard of the Toga system so we decided to take a look.
  • It’s a promising new restrictive weight loss surgery…with no surgical incisions
  • It’s performed endoscopically….through the mouth.
  • We talk about our own experience telling people we were going to have weight loss surgery.
  • Who, what and when you tell others about your surgery…should totally be up to you.
  • We do a  product review of the new Bariatric Advantage Calcium Chews!
  • Stay tuned and watch Lynnda catch one in her mouth.
If you haven't checked out BTV yet - what are you waiting for?

Hi Lynnda!

First of all.... I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the show.  You and Toni are so relaxed with who you are and have such a great friendship between you.  I just recently found your show, so I spent a Saturday a few weeks ago watching every episode, one right after the other!  So now, I have one complaint...... there aren't enough of episodes and I have to wait a week for each new one... boooooo!

Keep up the good work.  The information is great!

Libby

Topic: RE: Good plastic surgeon???
I used Dr. Capraro in Denver for breast lift and penniculactomy (sp?).  I am extremely happy with his work and will do my arms when I have enough money.  He is very knowledgeable, was recommended by my surgeon a friend in my support group.  He went above and beyond during both surgeries.  Very sensitive to feelings of  WLS patients.  Has excellent staff.

Good luck!

I have not used either doctor, just wanted to say how impressed I was with the hospital in Scottsbluff when my  mother had to have her kidney removed there due to cancer.

Topic: RE: Surgeon to Re-do Surgery
i had a VBG (Stomach Stapling) done in 1999  by a general surgeon, and was sent home with no instructions at all. Needless to say, I lost some, but in the long run I wasn't sucessful. Dr. Chae is very experienced, and with the Kaiser classes and support, i feel that this time I will succeed. (I never even knew not to drink pop....)
I owed it to myself to research the Duodenal Switch before consenting to any other weight loss surgery and so do you.  Check out: DSFacts.com and DuodenalSwitch.com for more information.
