MetroDetroitChic 86 Posted September 23, 2013 Dr. Kevin Krause @ Beaumont I'm gonna be honest... I was hoping you would say that. I am also using Krause via Beaumont Weight Loss Rochester. The docs estimate surgery will be in Feb. Nervous. Not terrified, but definitely nervous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Krause is awesome! I've been a nurse for 13 years & half of that was with critical surgical patients. So I have experience from both sides. It wasn't easy, but if weight keeps coming off I will have zero complaints. Good luck! 1 MetroDetroitChic reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just wondering if you had any experience with Dr. Chengelis? He presented at the seminar & seemed to know his stuff, but I wanted a fellow nurse's opinion .

Kelly G 31 Posted November 9, 2013 Any Michigan Sleevers getting sleeved in November? I'm set to be sleeved Nov 21st at St. Mary's in Grand Rapids by Dr. Kemmeter. Any other GHP patients that can relate the 2 wk diet? I know so many people are on a 2 wk liquid only diet and I know GHP doesn't do that so I wanted to get some tips from people who might be able to relate! I am on day 3 of mine and feel like I have been starving 24/7 but have only dropped a couple of pounds. Am I going to lose enough for surgery? Do they make you lose a certain amount? I know on the paperwork I received it says if I "maintain or gain weight" by surgery day that the surgery will be cancelled... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
