Surgeon Testimonial

Stanley Hoehn, M.D., F.A.C.S.
I met with Dr. Hoehn yesterday and I found him to be very nice. He listened to my questions and my answers to his. He was non judgemental and very understanding and positive. The risks and aftercare were addressed many times throughout the phases before I sat down with him. He knows his stuff and really cares.rnrnWhen I first met him at the Shawnee Mission Seminar I knew I wanted him to be my surgeon because he projected confidence in himself and his skills as well as a real concern for helping people.rnrnThe whole team at Shawnee Mission Bariatric, I've found to be wonderfuly supportive, knowledgable and care for the whole patient.

1st Fill
on January 21, 2009 5:49 am
2.5 ccs later (Monday, January 19th) and doing well.  The day of the fill and the day after my tummy and esophogus were a bit angry and upset but food went down well (all liquid).

So I'm feeling restricted, much like I did after surgery.

Hungry
on January 15, 2009 5:08 pm
Ok, my stomach must be healed...cause I don't think I have any restriction now.  Today was the first day since I was banded (December 23rd) that I have been HUNGRY.

I'm still eating under 1k calories and am really watching what I'm eating but I felt like I could eat my desk today at work.

Good thing I go in for a fill on the 19th.

10 day post op
on January 1, 2009 5:32 pm
Staples are out.  I've lost 10 lbs since surgery 26ish since I've begun all this journey.  My belly itches and is just a tad bit sore.  I'm eating soft foods and getting in way more than 64 fluid oz a day.  60-70 grams of protein is good and I'm getting all my vitamins and supplements daily.

Small portions of food are keeping me full until my next meal and I'm being really mindful about the no fluids 30 mins prior and 1 hour after a meal.

My average caloric intake has been around 450 to 500 per day.  I need to increase my calories, because I'm starting to get really weak between meals.  Never thought I would have problems with needing to eat more and not being sure the best way to do it.
