lovingheart

HI I am from south of buffalo and i am new to this site as well as I am just strating my journey by continuing my research on what is best for me- and finding a good doctor- if anyone is from the area and can give me some suggestions that would be great- thanks and nice to meet you all

I am sorry you had such a terrible time with the lap? Who did you surgery? What did they say about you being so sick fromt it?

HI I am still here- I went to the seminar with posner and my first appt is not even untill late aug- I am dissapointed my friend went and she already had her appt and and plan on surgery asap- What about you-? When are you going? etc- lets talk!

Congrats- I am sstill waiting on approval for at aleast a senimar here in buffalo

hi I was wondering how Dr hoffman is and how dr posner may be>

HI- I have posted before- I have my referrel but I am still working on the paper work- Sad I know-My Dr is referring me to Dr POSner but I am not sure what Dr I really would like- I would love to chat with you all about your results and imputs or for those who have been yet where are you in the process?

anyone else in buffalo or near by- I have done so much research - I am so confused still- where to start where to go what dr- what procedure- help

You are so funny- You are giving Dr. Hoffman lots of praise- that is great word of mouth is always the best- I am unsure if I want to do gastric or the lapband- and I am still unsure of which Dr- - I was looking into Dr. caurana for the gastric and then Dr posner for the lap- But I think you are doing great with Dr hoffman- how many did you say he has done? SO many things to think abnout-lol you have given me lots of info - SO how did you decide on him?

do you know how may dr posner has done?

wow -sounds like u r doing very well. Tell us more about dr hoffman.

Could you all tell what tests your dr sent you to have before they would allow the surgery? ALso Did you have any of these test prior to going to your appt with your wls dr.? Thanks

HI thanks, congrat son your journey- I have not been to seminar yet- I am still pondering on if i want to go to dr caurna or dr posner and if i want lap or gastric etc. If you have any info fill me. thanks

:tt1:Could you tell me where you started in this process? Any adivece on what to make sure I do first, second, third, and so on? What is the most important thing i need to know? Please help me with any advice that you can give.thanks:lol:

where are you from? did you know them?

I prayed about having wls several years ago- ( I was really ill ) and I felt that God gave me the strength and desire - I then started treatments for my illness and ended up losing 56 pounds (although still obese) I I felt since i was losing weight that this was my answer from GOd- Here I am two years later I gained back 56 pound plus and I am praying for an answer once again-

Only you know deep down inside what you really want and what you really need-and wahtever that may be I wish you the best of luck in making this descion. I am not a Dr and dont claim to be- and I think you have some ideas where you can start- and where you can end- Just remember to stay strong and hold you head up high- In some cases a spouse will say that their husband or wife is cheating because- They are cheating or they want to cheat or they already have So in that case just remember if you havent cheated then that issue lies within the accuser- for one reason or another- (mostly insercuites) for whatever reason- Do not blame yourself- And sometimes counsling can help even if its just to vent--- I wish you the best-- Take care of yourself no matter what and your child.

Hi could you tell me more- have you had it done? Do you like forbes? thanks
