Topic: RE: Wow, lots of great ......
Hi Kathy!
Glad to hear that you have broken through your stall. 9 months is a long time. I hope you and Patrece have a great time; I wish I lived even just a little closer so that I could join in occassionally. I'm not scared to travel by myself but my husband isn't thrilled with the idea. Oh well, maybe one day I'll actually get to meet you guys in person.
Hugs,
Colleen

Topic: RE: How to pick a hospital?
I would try and meet with a few of them and see who you feel most comfortable with. In my area, there aren't alot of options so I went with the surgeon that my PCP recommended. Maybe your regular doctor has an opinion.
Good luck!

Congratulations on your weight loss, Teresa. Glad to hear that you get on with your surgeon; mine is not always a very nice guy.

Yeah, that's the issue. It's comparing apples to apples, except in this case, the apples are too similar!
Topic: 6 week post-op visit
Had a good visit today with my doctor!!! Found out that no 2 scales are the same haha Here are the results from his office --- 46lbs since pre-op and 39lbs since surgery. ** My scales were showing 40lbs lol ** He was very pleased however I have to up my calorie intake to about 800 calories a day. I have lost a total of 13% of my body weight so far. He said that was really good :) So I am pleased with my visit today. I don't go back til the end of July!!

Hi Rachel,
Sounds as if either way you will have the same doctor's and his/her staff working with you. Good luck deciding. Mag
