I used Dr Mark Pleatman in Bloomfield Hills, MI... Near Pontiac... I would recommend him to anyone (and have to several others who have had surgery with him).
His experience and results are top...

Congratulations.. Keep up the good work. I applaud your success.. I started out in 46 pants, and Saturday I bought my first pair of 34 pants.. Never thought I would see that size again..
So...
BIG THANKS... I hired a personal trainer for last couple weeks and have benefited from the "push" of someone there, but she is moving and I am now on my own.
I will put this plan to good use and let...
I like the Pure Protien Bars... I buy them from Sams club. 20G Protien, 2G Sugar, and 17G Carbs... Chocolate Peanut Caramel and Chocolate Salted Caramel are two of my favorites
I like the Dannon Light and Fit Greek Yogurt with 13 grams of protein, and I add 1 sccop of Unjury Unflavored protein to get 33 grams per 5 oz of yogurt. It does not change the taste of the yogurt,...

I use this one.. Seems very accurate.. It matches up very well in weight, % Body Fat and % Water to my surgeon scale

I lost a newborn Holstein Calf... MOOOOO
No wonder my feet don't hurt anymore:cool:
Tinman I agree.. But unfortunately I bought the Quest Chips before I had my "I am not on a Diet, I can eat small amount of what I want" moment.
On the rare occasion that I want something like chips,...
I tried every flavor of chips that Quest offered and after about the 3rd or 4th chip, I stopped eating them. Some kind of film is coating your tongue and they leave a blahhh flavor..
Like the Quest...
I was getting the same pushback from my wife and kids... they complained that we would not be taking our vacation to Florida this year, and that I ruined their vacation because I had to have this...
No pain in hospital or after... Got script filled in case (liquid Tylenol with Codeine ) but never used it
Joe,
I understand.. I too ate a Pop Tart two days ago and I was astonished that the world did not end. It tasted so good, but I will not make a habit out of eating these wonderful sugary treats....
Kori,
Your in same boat I was in... local options were $25K-$35K and being self pay I had about giving up hope. I had friend I work with travel to Mexico to have surgery and she has had no issues. I...
Welcome JB..
Dr Pleatman did my surgery on 7/22/14 and it was best thing I ever did. I have only told my close family and church friends, but already after being down 50 pounds I get lots of...
Heidi,
First of all welcome to the site, many great people here who can help answer questions. I have had my sleeve for 10 weeks now and it was best thing I ever did for myself.

I would like to add:
High Weight
Day of Surgery Weight

Never heard that.. there are of course risks with any surgery and you have to weigh those versus Obesity related health impacts. My Dr has done thousands of Sleeves, Hundreds of Bypasses and does not...
Andy.. Keep up the good work. I was like you in fact that I had no problem eating the puree foods or soft foods at 3-4 weeks out and seemed that I could drink more than sips. Now that I have been on...
Ice chips and walking around will be the best things you can do for next day or so. I found that more I walked, the less pain from gas I had
I like the Premier Protein shakes from Sams Club.. the Chocolate tastes like Chocolate Milk, and for 160 Calories, you get 30 grams of Protein in 11 oz of fluid. I think only 1 gram of sugar as well
I found after my surgery that I felt much better with the gas pains the more I walked around and stayed out of the bed.
Good luck on your journey. Its a new start from here.
I have lost equivalent of 5000 BTU air conditioner.
