New Jersey Sleevers?

[lex8701 15]

Thanks for your reply bino. Dr. Nusbaum comes highly recommended! Somebody from dr. Ward office actually recommend him that's why I decided to go on a second consult. I can already tell the staff is friendlier over the phone. I cannot wait to meet him !

How did your consult go? My weight loss is going slow, but I've been under a lot of stress with my mom being very sick and having to put her on hospice.

everything went amazing. I'm actually schd for surgery June 18th.

I'm looking for one as well. I would love to get together and actually talk to others who have gotten this done. I've only been able to speak with nurses and doctors. Nobody who's actually been through it.

it's going good. But honestly I feel hungry ( or maybe thirsty) all the time. But of course I get full off a bite of food ...but yup I'm in jersey. I had my sleeve don't at Morristown medical center...where are you looking to get yours done ?

[kathy2208 40]

I'm from north Bergen Nj are you near there ? I'm getting it done in englewood nj. Try to stay hydrated drink a lot of Water what diet they have you on ?your going to probably experience a lot of changes its all part of your body getting use to the change

[lex8701 15]

North Bergen is like 30 minutes away from me I think. But yea staying hydrated is the hardest for me. Some days I can drink 5 bottles of Water. Others I struggle to finish 1. Everyday is a new challenge. As if right now eating soft foods. Only thing added is I can eat ground chicken or turkey. I try to keep my diet pretty restricted tho since I don't eat meat. I get my Protein thru shakes

[kathy2208 40]

Wow your not far from me but yes until your body finally settles with the new change , even your taste buds will change.
