Happy Hump Day, gang! Well, Amazon's got my back because my decaf Nespresso pods are delayed a day. Now they should be here by 10pm today, so I was able to hold off the inevitable misery for one more day. We are going away this weekend, though, so poor Grim…
Queen JBGood Morning everyone. I am scared to jinx it, but--anyone else think OH has been a lot speedier this week? Hoping it sticks. Ok, so I never really had a minute to work on my new GERD plan yesterday, but here is the scoop: 1.) No more caffeine. Ever. Amazon…

Just an fyi.. I had gastric bypass 20 yrs ago and all of a sudden any carbs or sugar will raise my blood glucose and then drop it. Endo did a lot of labs to see if my pancreas is putting out too much insulin and it is.This is not…
jenlmazGood Morning OH. Posting late and quickly because I forgot it's not a holiday where you are. I have the day off 🙂 QOTD: What local or state holidays do you have that no one else does? Ours is today - Patroit's Day which was originally about the Revolutionary War,…

I?ve been trying to buy my home outright from the bank as it?s crazy damaged and my mortgage and taxes are outrageous. Unfortunately they appraised it as far higher than I possibly imagined so even if we CAN make this deal it will probably mean I won?t have any money…
VeggiewomanGood Morning! We made it! I have been up since 2am for absolutely no reason. I wanted to channel my inner-Jen and get out of bed to exercise or be productive, but the inner-Me won and I watched 2 hours of TikTok videos. I got completely sucked into the JoJo…
Queen JBMorning Gang, it’s lil Friday! I’m heading into the office on the early train again today. Mostly zooms but a few in person, too. Still loving the job. HR sure isn't dull! Y’all are FANCY. So many balls! I had no idea what I was missing. I hope I get…

me for sure yesterday and tonight! Good mornin y’all! Thanks for the well wishes yesterday for my nerve ablation! It went ok. Though I did not realize I would be getting a dose of steroids for the inflammation. I only realized when I started feeling like absolute shit. I mean…
Melody P.Morning! Heading into the office soon for a long day of zooms :/ I am looking forward to getting out of this pattern of going in just to sit on the computer, but I've got another few weeks to get through before I have the time to tromp through the…
Queen JBGoooooood Morning! I hope everyone had a great Monday. Mine was perfect 🙂 I had some great meetings and watching the eclipse was a nice fun mid-afternoon break. We're also about 98% done with the main puzzle, then we have to do the mini puzzles, then get to solving the…

Hello, I'm not sure if anyone still reads this but here I am. It's been almost 15 years since my sleeve. I had a tummy tuck with lipo in 2013. So now I am weighing in at 179 with OZEMPIC. I know I know but insulin resistance came…

It started with just a little dizziness. The year was 2014 just a few years after my RNY. I would be out somewhere walking or working. I could be at home. I could be exercising. I would be hit with a wave of dizziness and vertigo that I had never…

Yikes it has been a whle since I have updated. Not a lot has been going on. I just am keeping on the journey. This is hard and it is frustrating, but also I have a sense of accomplishment. It is hard because I just still want to eat, and…

Hello again , I'm back with an update. I do take everything the Dr says for vitamins now, they've added Zinc and Magnesium as well as changed my vitamin D to Vitamin D3 + K2. I guess it's making a big difference because the orthopedic surgeon was afraid I might…

Constant nausea. I have seen gastric doctor, ENT next step is neurologist. Everyone is puzzled. I also have excess saliva. Could this be caused by my bariatric surgery

Have constant nausea. I have excess saliva. Could any of this be caused by my bariatric surgery years ago. I have been checked by a gastric doctor, ENT and everyone is puzzled, next will be a neurologist. Don't know what else to do

This was a very unfortunate experience. There were so many things I feel Dr. Patchings should have done to make sure my surgery would have been successful. First I would start by saying he never required me to lose any weight. He had me do a food diary for the…
This medical weight loss journey is new to me and I wanted to share my initial experience for anyone in the same position. It was an eye opening experience. I found a website about medical weight loss (Az Weight Loss clinic) It was the first to pop up on my…
Dr. Ferzli was friendly, professional, thorough, and kind. Future patients should know that he and his program are amazing! The program focuses on aftercare and is always available to help. All the members of the Bariatric team and entire staff were helpful. The support groups are extremely helpful and are…
Dr. Ferzli saved my life in March 20th 2012 and I am forever grateful. That day, my roux-en-y surgery was a success, but more importantly Dr Ferzli worked with me beforehand to give me the confidence to have the surgery. Highly recommended!
I had this surgery with Mr pollard in October 2001 weighing 121 kg. I did lose weight but had keloid scarring on the stomach and the pouch widened. In 2008 I had a band over a bypass in Belgium and at my thinnest in 2010 and 19 was 60kg. Unfortunately…
