There are 2 dieticians in Dr. Sonnanstine's office in Georgetown.  If you explain the situation and that you were a former patient of his, they may even give you information by email.  If you want their emails, PM me.  It's worth a try.

We had the best time
Who could have guessed that this journey would bring me so many great new friends.
Maybe next time you'll come play with us


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.  Remember think twice, cut once, revisions are risky and revision surgeons are rare.

Hi Holly

Not sure wIhat got your knickers in a wad, if you don't like Maria - if you don't like DS or if you have a problem with people who go out of the country to have surgery. 

1. Maria is a good girl, a smart one and a right cute one in her size 4 snowsuit this weekend

2. Maria is a smart girl, she did her research, discovered that there was another option besides RNY or lapband and decided that option was for her.  She also knew there were surgeons here in KY and closeby in IN who could help in the event of complications.  BTW all surgeries have complication rates, might be something you wanna check into

3. The DS is performed by more than one surgeon in the country, it is a more complicated surgery and there fore requires a more skilled surgeon than your run of the mill lap band.  If you were interested at all in knowing these things there are links on OH that could lead you to all the surgeons who perform the DS.  You don't need to rely on the man who developed the surgery there are many more options out there

and

4. There are so many people on these boards who have gone out of country for surgery no matter what type it is.  American doctors and hospitals are so expensive they make going out of the country a very attractive alternative.  There is another young lady in our surgery group who went to Mexico.  Care to take a few pot shots at her too?

This is supposed to be a support forum.  Wanna go slinging ugliness around here there are few who will take it so take your ball and go home.

i am a little over 3 years out after having RNY surgery and lost over 120 pounds.  well, i recently gave birth to my first child and i really need to lose the extra weight!  does anyone know what the calorie limit should be for me daily since it's been over 3 years since surgery?  i remember having 800 calories a day or so, but not sure what it should be now, or if it should be the same amount?  thanks for the help, i really need it!!!!!!!!!
I have to copy and paste your posts into another program so I can read them because the font is too small, so I missed the entire topic when I posted before.  I thought you were not wanting to drive to see Dr. Sonnanstine, but if I were you I would make an appointment with his dietician and let her help you with this, she would know what would be best for you, I would think.
