How are you doing? Which surgery did you have?

[Ruin's Angel 6]

I'm in Citrus Heights. I'm having surgery 10/12 at Sutter Roseville with Dr. Shadle.

Hello! I live in Citrus Heights as well. I'm getting ready to meet with my surgeon. I'll be having mine done By Dr. Eslami at Methodist in South Sac. I've been trying to find others that are getting ready to get surgery or already had surgery through them as well.

I had surgery in October. I'm down 53 lbs from my highest weight. I haven't heard anything about Dr. Eslami. I absolutely love Dr. Shadle, and am very happy I had my surgery with him. I have had NO complications whatsoever.

Congrats Papi and Taralynn! I'm on my pre-op supervised diet. The surgeons nut verbally told me on my first visit that I have to lose 30lbs first but the paperwork I saw on my last visit said 40 so I'm not sure how much I have to lose exactly but I've lost 12 of it so far. I've been really irritated with my surgeons office though because I got approval to meet with the surgeon back on Nov. 20 but they didn't get me in there until Feb. 11. Then the Dr. asked me which surgery I wanted and I told him RNY and he said he wouldn't do that one on me because my BMI of 64 was too high and said he would only do the sleeve on me. That was really disappointing and confusing since most doctors prefer the bypass for the patients with a higher BMI. I've been pretty disappointed but trying to get used to the idea of the sleeve. I'm just afraid of failing with it. So far what was supposed to be a 6 month process has turned into almost a year.
