Surgeon Testimonial

Steven Tersigni, M.D.
I was so impressed the first time I walked into that office for my consult. I knew even before meeting the doctor that this was going to be my choice for a number of reasons:rnrn1. They actually answered the phone and answered my questions...didn't keep referring me to a presentation.rn2. There is a lovely picture of a surgeon praying before going into surgery, right at the front desk...very nice.rn3. All of the staff were super nice and down to earth.rnrnSo, when I met Dr Tersigni, I was relieved that he was just as pleasant as the rest of the staff. He explained everything that would happenbefore and after the surgery, and was open to answering any questions that my husband and I had. I actually felt comforted seeing him there after I woke up from the procedure. He seems like a very caring man, and he kept the incisions as small as he could...BONUS!

    Friday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench!

Been too long...
posted on 5/23/09 9:32 am
I used to be so good at blogging, and I have failed miserably in the last almost 3 months! Yikes! I have only lost 4 pounds since my last post! Yikes again!! Obviously my weight loss has slowed and I feel a bit bummed about that, but I also know that with the weather getting better here in Oregon, I am outside more and getting more activity....hoping I can step up my activity. But that also means no more (small) bowls of ice cream while watching American Idol. Thank goodness Idol is done for now!!
I am loving all this energy I have found and wearing a size 12 feels AWESOME (only in Old Navy and GV), but still struggle with always getting my protein in and not snacking on things I know I should avoid. I am so thankful for my lapband and know that I would have fallen off the wagon if it weren't in place. My skin in a few areas is grossing me out a bit, but for the most part, that is covered by clothes, so I am good there. My upper arms will always gross me out, no matter how much I exercise them, I definitely have the "mom arms" happening. When I look at myself I still sometimes see a size 22, other times I see a 16, but I never see a size 12. When does that change??? UGH, what a rollercoaster this has been!! Good thing I love rollercoasters!!
