Hi. I live near H'burg, and I will be (hopefully) getting my surgery from Dr. Avara in Ocean Springs soon.

I have my PET class and Psych Review next week.

I have heard the PET class was good. Trish is supposed to be teaching it. Last night, I went to a group meeting, and It was nice to talk to all the others who were about to / have already had the surgery.

I hope my insurance pays like it should. I have heard so many horror stories.

March the 24th. So that is about two months. Are you happy with your results?

Tom.

I am beyond excited with my results. After surgery don't get discouraged because you will hit the insanely long dreaded "stall" and I just got through with mine. I have lost 33lbs so far and 16 inches in my stomach. Well that 16 i haven't measured in a couple weeks so it could be more. Once you get past the liquids stage, it gets easier. I cried and regretted it during that stage. But it does get better!

I was sleeved by Dr Avara on 9/24/13. Am very happy with my decision and results. I am down 90 lbs and have 20 more to go. I couldn't have asked for a better group of folks to help me through my journey. Trisha is great and can get you motivated!

Good luck!
