Topic: RE: WLS Supportive/Friendly Primary Phisician?
Dr. Debra Colpitt is a PCP in Owasso (at Bailey) that is supportive.  I thought when I brought up the surgery that it would be a fight and I was pleasantly surprised.  I was required by my insurance to do a 6 month supervised diet, during my monthly visits with her she would always ask me what I had learned at support group and she also checked a bunch of things that Dr. Gorospe didn't require over that 6 months to make sure there wasn't anything that might pop up and prevent me from having the surgery.

Topic: RE: WLS Supportive/Friendly Primary Phisician?
Thanks Molly, I already have all of my pre-op requirements met.  I am looking for a doctor that can take care of my regular needs and after surgery care.  I did not want to go to a doctor who does not like WLS to care for me afterward.  I don't think Dr. Kirk works as a primary care physician, or does he?

 Dr. Joe Bob Kirk in Owasso at Bailey. He can do all your pre-op referrals and get you all ready for the surgeon.

Topic: WLS Supportive/Friendly Primary Phisician?
Does anyone know of any primary phisicans that are supportive of WLS in the Tulsa area?  I have not found one yet.  Kind of tired of filling out all of the paper work just to get a lecture about the surgery. 

Thanks :)

made boneless skinless breasts grilled with low fat mozzarolla on whole wheat bun for a yummy meal of only 270 calories, and then you can add a salad (which I can't have yet) with fat free dressing.

Topic: RE: Killing Carbs - Episode 2
Great GREAT post!!! And so very true!

I have cousin's on my mom's side of the family that have ALWAYS been skinny stick figures and can eat any damn thing they want! UGH!! But they are oh so sweet and supportive as well! I can only hate them silently! hehe

I use my daily affirmation to help me deal with issues when I'm struggling. I also pray and meditate on how I see myself and my life in a positive manner.
