Surgeon Testimonial

Jeffrey Lord, M.D.
Dr. Lord is an excellent choice for a Bariatric Surgeon. He knows his stuff and makes sure that his patients know their stuff as well. Every step, starting from Nutrition, insurance, to self-care and education, Dr. Lord and his staff have made an awesome job out of surgical success. I would definately recommend Dr. Lord or his associate, Dr. Freedman to anyone contemplating weight loss surgery.

Happy Anniversary To Me!
on June 19, 2008 8:09 pm
June 18th was my surgerversary!  I had my one year check up with Dr. Lord.  He was amazed!  He hasn't seen me since my surgery.  I've usually seen his associate,  Dr. F.  Dr. Lord said my blood work was perfect, although I can up my B12 to twice a week (I take a 1x wk. sublingual) if I want more energy.  I'll do that.  His office has an annual fashion show for pre-ops and whoever else wants to attend.  He informed me that I WOULD be in the show.    I'm so flattered and excited!  He also told me I have met his goal and do not need to lose anymore, just work on maintaining now.  I pretty much am  done losing I think.  I keep bouncing back between the same two pounds.  
I feel wonderful and am still playing softball, although the season is  almost up.  I'm not afraid of wearing a bathing suit anymore and even got a picture taken in one.  I love my RNY and would do it again in a heartbeat!

Our newest addition

We got our newest family member, 'Cookie' last week.  She was a rescue puppy and  is the sweetest thing ever.  She's a beagle mix, approx. 9 weeks old.  We just love her!  Anyone  have any potty-training tips?
