    HI, I'm in contact with Dr. Ortiz's office and planning on getting the sleeve in a few months. Great to see a fellow Hoosier! I'm from Milan (yeah, the place where the basketball game happened...yadda yadda...) Nice to meet you!

    Thank you! I feel good but I've only lost 12 pounds since my surgery on April 12th. All of which I lost within the first week and a half. It's been almost 3 weeks since I've lost anything. I'm getting nervous. I'm definitely going to contact Dr. Miranda.

    Hey there! I have a question for a fellow Dr. Ortiz patient. I feel that I was given very little nutrition info. I was told what to eat and what not to eat the first four weeks but no instruction beyond that. Am I missing something? Was there a pre-op email with this info? Everyone on these forums has a daily protein and calorie goals but I was never told anything. There are foods people were told to avoid for at least a year or forever that I've been eating because I wasn't told not too. Was this your experience as well?

    Thank you! Everything was pretty uneventful. Dr Ortiz was a dream, very funny and charming. Most comfortable hospital bed I've ever been in. The most painful part was when they pushed meds into my IV. I feel a little crampy on my drain side but overall everything was great.

    Thanks for the good luck wishes! I meet Dr. Ortiz tomorrow! I'm excited and nervous. I have no idea what to expect after the surgery so I'm concerned about that. I think all will go well though. I'm confident in my decision to go through Dr. Ortiz!

Half way to goal!

by HoosierGirl on 05-21-2013 at 07:35 AM
Today, I am half way to my weight loss goal of 92 pounds! Yes - I am eating well and exercising, but I've NEVER lost 46lbs by simply eating well and exercising....let alone losing 46 pounds in 4 months!

Feeling so blessed and free from past demons. I am re-writing my future and it feels so wonderful!
