DavidBC 36 Posted May 24, 2016 Hey DavidBC how's it going just checking on you hope all is well Going great! It's been 2 weeks and I'm down 17 lbs. since surgery and 53 lbs. overall. I've had no issues to speak of except trying to get my fiber/miralax dosage ironed out and finding a Calcium pill I can take. I go to my first post-opt appt with Dr. Johnson tomorrow. Very glad I made this decision and looking forward to traveling a lot more in the years to come. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DavidBC 36 Posted June 14, 2016 Hey DavidBC how are you doing tell me about your journey so far I have one more nutrition visit the 26 of this month tell me we have the best doctor? I don't know if he's the best but Dr Johnson is a good one! I'm doing great after 5 weeks! Been dropping 5 to 6 lbs per week and no real problems once I got the proper amount of Fiber down. Like many folks say I just wished I would have done this sooner! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
southernsoul 773 Posted June 14, 2016 I'm hardly ever on here anymore, but this post caught my eye today. I live in Athens, and was sleeved by Dr. Paul Macik at Northside. He was really good, and his office staff is great. I'm 3 years out this month. Because of the distance, I didn't go to the support groups at the hospital regularly, but I did join several WLS groups on FB, in addition to being here. Good luck to each of y'all!!
