Surgeon Testimonial

Hadar Spivak M.D.
Dr. Hadar Spivak is, undoubtedly, the absolute best bariatric surgeon around. I attended one other Houston area surgeon's seminar and was not impressed. Dr. Spivak presented himself as a very intelligent, experienced, and warm person. Throughout the two plus years since my banding, I have grown even more impressed with both him and his office staff. He is constantly available 24/7 via his answering service and an average wait time for a return call is about 10 minutes TOPS. He is consistent, caring, and extremely approachable.

My lil' journey....
My journey to a better me


Feeling so much healthier already!!

I had a bit of a stall this week.  After all the hours of cardio I have done, I only lost one freakin' pound.  It is just really hard to stare down at the scale thinking of all the weight you might have lost (just merely in sweat alone!) and to see such a small change.  There are lots of things that could be playing into the scheme of things, but it doesn't take away the "slap" I felt this morning looking at the scale.  Oh well....it will be a new day tomorrow and I can weigh again next Sunday!!  I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.....

Almost at my three month mark!!
on August 3, 2007 4:20 pm
I am just days away from my 3 month surgiversary!  I will get my chance to get new measurements in less than a week and see where I am really having results!!  I am doing weight-training 3 days a week for an hour and cardio for 30 minutes a day/six days a week.  All in all, I feel like exercise (and sweating) has become part of my routine and I really enjoy it a lot!!  I feel fit and full of energy (until evening time when I konk out early!) and better than I ever have!!  I will keep posted about my results come Thursday!!!
