Surgeon Testimonial

Michael Garren
My surgeon was absolutely wonderful. When I first saw him speak at information night I introduced myself to him because we have a mutual friend. He was absolutely delightful to chat with. I am on the high end of BMI and age range and it never was an issue with him. He told everyone at the info night that his commitment to us was for as long as he lived! His statistics are excellent and were also thorough. The whole program was beyond thorough. I was taught everything I needed to know and more. Aftercare is also marvelous and so is the staff. They are always available by phone, even on weekends. I live about 60 miles away and they bent over backwards to schedule as much on one day as possible to avoid extra driving. Also Meriter Hospital was the best hospital I have ever been in. I work in medicine and this was a phenomenal experience. they certainly deserve the Center of Excellence rating!

Well I got the message I hadn't updated in 90 days so here I am. Kind of stuck on weight loss. Most days I do great, about once a week I eat something I shouldn't and so I go up and down. I have stepped up my exercise and tightened up my choices so it should start to move soon. I did lose really fast in the beginning and now I am balancing. 

I am so ready for the weather to be just a bit warmer. I don't really like hot, but jackets at the end of May is crazy, even for here. I'm enjoying the Illinois board a lot. We post almost daily and between support group and the folks who live in Chicago and get together I feel like we have a real family here.
