Who is your doctor? What hospital are/have you used?
pookybear replied to JustFluffy's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I have Dr. Thomas Streeter at Wareham Surgical Associates in Wareham, MA. The team and the program are great! My surgery will be at Tobey Hospital in Wareham. -
How soon did you go back?
pookybear replied to ready2smile's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'll be taking about a week and a half -
Yeah, they're no help here. The program I'm in is great, but they tell me to see the nutritionist. And I can't because my insurance doesn't cover the nutritionist. Grr.

why keep your surgery private
pookybear replied to Lovebone89's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I'm not keeping it secret. Not exactly shouting it out to the world, but I have no problem telling anyone. It's not something I'm ashamed of, and I've found that a lot of people are interested and start asking questions about it. -
Thanks. I have My Fitness Pal but haven't really used it other than the first day or two. It tells me my daily calorie intake should be over 2500 which I know isn't right, and I can't figure out how to change it or exactly what it SHOULD be. Exercising not so much mainly because of time and my left knee. I'm going to try to get back to the gym, just not sure how much I'll be able to do.

Thanks! I really hope I get approved with no problems. I'm not sure I could go through this process a third time.
