Topic: RE: WEIGHT GAIN AFTER SURGURY
congratulations on your longevity to both of you! You have done fantastic.
I must say that 20 and 22 lbs in that length of time sure beats what it could have been if you had not had the surgery. With all the comorbidities you two may not have made it this far.
So Your both an inspiration to me who is only a little over a year out!

I was 6 years out yesterday . . and I had gained back 22lbs . . get a hold of it now . . find Pam T's blog, she has a back to basics that you need to print and follow.
Are you grazing? . . I had turned to bad carbs . . pretzels . . and now I am off all sugar and sugar and feeling like a million bucks . . I have taken off what I gained and I am heading toward new weight.
You can do this . . if I can.

Any of the Centers of Excellence will be okay.... Call the number on your card and ask for some material since info has changed.... Like now they approve the sleeve, etc.

OK, food update - the butterscotch pound cake from the Bariatric Foodies - was great! I took it to euchre last night and got compliments from a couple of people and took it to the birthday party today and left some for my dad who is diabetic. I plan to make this again, but use a chocolate cake mix with chocolate sf pudding mix and thing that would be even yummier!
Second - the snack bars... Well, you learn something new every day. I had no idea that coconut oil was a solid, and I couldn't find any at Trader Joes, soooo I just used canola oil - so my nut bars are a little soupy. I think I'll scrape the chocolate off the top and put them outside for birds. I did find coconut oil today at GNC and hear that Hiller's carrys that kind of stuff. I couldn't find unsweetened coconut and hear Hiller's has that too. I plan to try them again. I don't think they need the chocolate topping.

Topic: Dr. Hing patients...
What was the process that you followed before having your reconstructive surgery? I scheduled a second consult with him to discuss a lower body lift and to get a price quote. I was wondering what happens next. Who do I call in order to schedule surgery? What about pre-op blood work/EKG?
