Welcome weigh8nomore!!! My experience with Kaiser has been awesome. I know it's a long process but they really want us to be informed and the classes were great. The doctors and educators really do seem to care. We are all truly blessed to be having our sleeve done with Kaiser :-)

Are there any recent patients (like now or this year) of Dr. Zane or Dr. Belzberg here? I am curious about how long it was from your meeting with your surgeon until your surgery date.

I have been referred there to Harbor City, but they won't schedule my appointment yet until they receive the referral paperwork. I have a lap band that needs to come out, and I hope to have the sleeve put in. My stomach hurts all the time, and so I'm hoping it won't be a month wait for an appointment with the surgeon and then another two months until surgery.

They called me for my appts. I think it just depends on which of the hospitals has an opening first. I got in because someone got cancelled cuz they gained weight. I am sorry you are in so much pain.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
