Nana1222 159 Posted October 4, 2016 Thank you so much! You have already been a big help just knowing what to expect. I hope someday we can meet at a group session. I plan to go to those for a long time. I feel really good about Dr LaMasters have heard so many great things about her and staff and loved meeting her at my appt.

Luckygrl 87 Posted October 5, 2016 She is absolutely amazing!! Her entire team is top notch. Everyone from the sweet lady that did cleaning in my room, all the way up to the surgeon....they all treated me so well. They're there for us every single step of the way. And my primary care Dr is just as amazing. She's in indianola....Reagan Barry. I sipped cream Soup tonight....Ooooh my. Pure heaven. And I had a sugar free popsicle. Mmmm. It's the little things that make me smile lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luckygrl 87 Posted October 5, 2016 Oh that is hysterical! lol I hope next week too! How is your energy level? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App My energy is better every day. We've been out at stores or running errands almost daily since Monday. My stamina is low though. I can't go for long before I need to rest a bit. I'm honestly shocked at how well I feel after having a pretty major surgery. I can't stress enough, relax and just follow whatever the team tells you. You'll rock this!!
