Was seeing him for years. He was given outstanding reviews by people in this forum. I liked him very much both as a doctor and a human being. NYU called to cancel or reschedule with another doctor just one week before my appointment with Schwack. I don't know the other doctors in this NYU practice. Does anyone know them? Does anyone know where Dr. Schwack has gone?

My experience is that after the first year with a band your metabolism has slowed and experiments on contestants of the Biggest Loser had shown that 6 years later their metabolism has not returned to normal levels. I lost over 80 pounds my first year but some of that was from starving with a slipped band and weight loss affirmations. For the last 10 years, my weight has remained consistently 40 pounds down from my original weight. Try as I may I can not seem to lose anymore. My surgeon says I may not be thin but the band has prevented me from becoming a lot larger.
Right! My metabolism has never returned to normal (and probably never will.) I lost 62 pounds during the first 12 months, yet I can't seem to lose more. It seems that the weight is stagnant, and my body does not want to get rid of more fat for some reason.
