Kelly G 31 Posted November 14, 2013 How are you recovering? How did you like having your surgery at Saints? How was your first couple of days post surgery? I'm getting excited AND nervous!! But the good kind of nervous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul11011 372 Posted November 15, 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... I had a sleeve with Dr. Baker at GHP Jan 10, 2011. Just stick with the 2 week diet and you'll be fine. The important part is to show that you can stick to a meal plan. You will lose weight but it's secondary to being able to show that you can still stick with the program. GHP is outstanding, can't say enough great things about them. Best of luck to you.

malq1990 170 Posted January 22, 2014 I haven't seen anyone on here that went to the same surgeon as me. If you are still looking, Dr. Mark Pleatman is a very very good surgeon. Had my VSG May 28, 2013 @ St. Joseph Mercy of Pontiac. I am 7.5 months out and down 95 pounds! Only 10 more to go! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly G 31 Posted January 22, 2014 I was sleeved Nov 21 by Dr. Kemmeter with Grand Health Partners in Grand Rapids. I think he is a great surgeon and would recommend him to anyone!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gloiristk 0 Posted January 22, 2014 I was sleeved 10-21-13 also by Kemmeter. I would also highly recommend him to others. I went through GHP. I go see him again on the 6th to see how things are going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
