LightlyMyDarling 5 Posted November 30, 2014 Hey Colorado Sleevers! I'm scheduled for December 9, 2014 and was wondering if any of you who have had the sleeve can comment on staying hydrated here in Colorado? My husband worries if we go hiking I won't be able to get enough hydration...thoughts? Experiences? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Domika03 309 Posted January 3, 2015 Hi there, Just as you would do for any other hike, just make sure to bring plenty of fluids with you. There isn't really anything additional that you need to do.

hrhlaurie 185 Posted April 1, 2015 I haven't been on here much lately but I'm in Colorado Springs and doing well. I'd love to find a running buddy if there is anyone local. My Nut is Julie Anderson and I highly recommend her. She's helping me lose this last 20 stubborn pounds! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PMJ 55 Posted April 1, 2015 Monument here. Was starting to wonder if I was the only Co. on BP's. Wish I could help with referrals but my Dr. is in Denver/Parker. Having my sleeve done this friday at Parker Adventist. Not a runner per say but if you ever feel like "the Incline" I'm with you. They did a great job cleaning it up. Feel free to contact me to talk, questions or plan some thing. Hope things go better for all of us. Have downed more Water these last few weeks then probably the last 12 yrs. I have lived here….HA Thanks everyone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BackSpin81 350 Posted April 5, 2015 As surgery day gets closer I would love to hear how Dr Brown and Colorado Bariatric patients are doing! I'm Beginning my pre op freak out I was sleeved by Dr. Brown on 3/30/15. Dr. Brown, the anaesthesiologist, and nursing staff were wonderful. I left the hospital with minimal pain. My 2 week post op appointment is scheduled on 4/15/15. When are you scheduled? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PMJ 55 Posted April 6, 2015 Had the procedure Friday afternoon and really can not say enough good things about Dr. Brown and his team. With all the feed back from every one at BP's I was prepared for the worst and very happy to deal with the best. Just figuring out how to get all my Vitamins and fluids in. Whats really odd is Water is now the most appealing of all drinks…go figure. Hope your healing continues, if your going to nutrition meeting on April 17th, I will see you then.
