Hi,

I am from Hackberry and Dr Chung did my surgery also. July 1, 08. So far lost 42 lbs. Do you go to the support meetings? If you do, we have probably met.

Great job! I am now 10 months out and I have lost 66 lbs. Please try to make the support meetings, they are such a big help. My DIL and myself have both had surgery with Dr. Chung and think he is great. She had Gastric bypass and she is doing great also. We both feel that the meeting once a month is our day out and it really takes a lot for us to miss it. In fact, only have missed 1 in the last 11 months.

Please feel free to email me anytime, or post on here.

Good luck,

jazie

The meetings are the second Thursday of every month. They are at Womens and Childrens Hospital at 6 pm. I know it will be an inconvience but we have to drive 45 mins. to get there, so we usually go early and shop. That is in Lake Charles.

My email is joelynbb@aol.com

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
