The entire staff was amazing!! Dr. Broussard is my Dr and I loved him. The whole experience was great and I have no regrets!! Do you come to support group? I find them very helpful and reassuring. -

I was sleeved there on Feb 12th. I was insurance and had my consultation Oct 26th. I think when your self pay as soon as you meet pre op requirements they schedule you. -

I understand how you feel but hang in there. It does get better. I too slept in my recliner the first 4 days and was so happy to be able to crawl into my bed. I am 19 days out and can tell you it does get better! And just think of the results

Made a lovely piece of Tilapia tonight and ate way too much of it! Can I just say......"Yuck" and I sure hope my brain remembers this feeling in the future. It was a 4 ounce piece and I should of stopped at 2 ounces.... -
Laughing so hard I'm crying. Maybe that burned enough calories to break my stall

2 weeks post op: how many calories did you have per day?
Sarah78_RN replied to Nicole Chavez's topic in Food and Nutrition

Just home from the hospital, And I have a question...

That's my thought to. Pre-op the put a scopolamine patch on me that I would wear for 3 days. They told me it could cause blurry vision. -
