Surgeon Testimonial

Christopher You
My first time meeting Dr.You was at the wls seminar,he was very knowledgeable and young with a easy tone in his voice that just gave you comfort.And my impression of him was greater after I meet him at my consultation.The staff are amazing people they all seem to care deeply about your decsion and never get tired of the repeated questions.This weight management total care facilty is just that total care and that in itself is a plus.Dr.You and the entire team stress the importance of after care and have you sign a contract to insure that you comply.The plan is to be seen monthly for the first year and yearly there after.Dr.You gives you tons of info and never holds back each time you meet with him at least the first to times he gives all the guidelines far as risk goesto make shore you understand the nature of your descion.Overall I would give him a 10 on a scale of 1-10.Surgical competence and bedside manner go hand and hand with Dr.You i'm certin you'll get that and more.
Life is pleasant,flirty,confident,sexy,on this side of the bench and the list goes on.........

A Year in the Making
on July 25, 2011 9:25 am
Hello my Oh fam it has been a very long time since I've blogged here I do how ever stop in from time to time to see how you all are doing..I would like to first say hello and welcome to all the new people on the bench and as you may already know the journey will have many ups and downs but it is one that in my option is worth it. The newest thing I have discovered is that with this surgery and other for weight loss is that although you hit some bumps and you will you will always have the ability to bounce back this is the wonders of surgery in the past if you lost weight on your own a few slips could have you drifting right back to square one quickly and loss all you put in.But with this you can get right back on track and loss weight but only if you put your head in it. I have had stales but its fine because I really can say I haven't been working out like I was a few months ago due to life stresses .This has been a troubling year for me but things are starting to get better so more change is on the rise and I can't wait.If any of you have not already done so hit me up on my you tube page where I spend a great deal of time logging my experience @THEMRSSINGALONG channel...Thank you all for keeping up with me.

Long,Long,Time no blog

Well fam I've been really getting my grind on trying to loss the most weight I can in six months I,ll be totally honest I haven,t been very strict ,or should I say as strict as I should. However I never over indulge with anything passing my lips,thanks not only to my baby girl (my band) but to the mental I have in place.I am down 40lbs since altogether since June 21th 2010 and that is a number I have zero complaints about ,I look better and I feel better who can ask for more.I am so into this new life style i"ve decided to apply for Police academy and I started back to school this semester,so this band has given me more then I could have imagined.So life is good and I,ll get back soon To be continued........

I'm seeing life without blinders
on July 19, 2010 7:05 am
Hello my OH family it's been a while since I've posted but I frequently visit to see how everyone is doing,as for me things are going good,really good in fact.I've started my pre-op workout this week and I plan to go 5 days a week so far so good.I have noticed a change in my underwear everything is fitting alot better then before and my weight is starting to drop and I find it amazing to see the weight come off like it is hopefully things will be steady in that direction.My body image hasn't changed much but it will in time.I am motivated big time and plan to stay this way.I can already say that I love my band.Although I haven't had my fill I do have some restriction and it allows me to have 4oz. to 6oz. depending on the time of day and I am totally fine with it, I am learning how to live with my band and the marriage is great between us.Until next time keep it healthy.To be continued....

The Aftermath
on June 25, 2010 5:59 am
I am finally banded,I am following my liquid stages to the letter and notice that my hunger is around more often then I would like.I'm' alright while  sipping but when I stop the dreaded beast hits me like a ton of bricks(HUNGER)...I will be more then happy to have the pureed food enter my life I will enjoy every moment of it,I can't wait but for some reason I'm scared to.. that's crazy but I'm sure I'm not alone in this.

One other issue I need to work on is drinking 30 mins. before or after ,being on liquids really can't help you prepare for this part of the ride,It was never a problem before but for some reason I am always thirsty so I can see it becoming a problem.

The good thing about the entire process from seminar to post-op is that every step prepares you for the next.I am ever so grateful for the experience, and I thank GOD for giving me knowledge ,a wealth of new friends and for bringing me this far..

Time Is Whining Down
on June 4, 2010 11:54 am
OK I've had my EKG ,pre-op physical and blood work I have 2 more weight management classes and then we gradute I am scheduled for my EDG..I am so excited and amazed at how fast time goes.But at this point I am so ready I can taste it.I will start my pre-op liquid diet on the 6th of June and I believe that  I will be a great success. My only issue would be is my energy level so I can still go to the gym and maximize my weight-loss before surgery.Well wish me well and be glad for me..peace until next time.
