Surgeon Testimonial

Walter Sartor
I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Dr. Sartor. He was wonderful before, during and after my surgery. He was very kind and helpful, answering any question I or my husband had. Besides the fact that the is not hard to look at either. LOL! God Bless Dr. Sartor. I give him a big old 10!

Time for an update.

Well, it seem that I went foreverrrrr without losing anymore weight. I got my third fill on the 22nd of this month. I have since lost another 1. LOL! I am tearing it up here. I bought an elliptical machine to have at home and I have worked my way up to abut 15 mins so far. I love using it. It is just difficult. I am getting better tho. At first I couldnt even do 3 mins. I can really tell that I am losing inches though. I did not measure myself when I started, but my clothes are definitely getting a lot looser. Im not sure that last fill put me where I need to be, but I am going to wait a while and see what happens.

First Goal Acheived.
on June 19, 2008 1:05 pm

I hit the 30 lb. mark today. I am so happy with my band. After my second fill, I was so tight, I could not eat anything. I went back in and Rena removed .20 from me and I am perfect now. I can eat, very slowly and very little. I hope it last a while. Things are great. I see onderland on the horizon.

First Fill...
on May 19, 2008 1:40 pm

Received my first fill today. 3 cc's in my 10 cc band. I dont really feel anything, so I will give it few and see I guess. I know over the weekend, I was starving. Hungrier than I have been since I had the surgery, so I guess it was time. The stick did not hurt at all, didnt really even feel it. All in all everything is good. I just cant eat for a couple of days. Oh well, I guess I can wait. I told my husband the other day that if I didnt feel like I was starving it felt like I was cheating. How sad is that?

2 Week Check-Up
on May 7, 2008 5:06 pm

Went for my 2 week checkup today. All was great. Officially I have lost 13 lbs., but according to my scales its 15 lbs. I think I like mine better. LOL! I go on the 19th to get my first fil. Rena said she will work with me to get good restriction within my 90 day period. Cross your fingers, I hope that is even possible. If not I will be payring $300 a pop for fills. I get the first 90 days no charge except $100 xray fee. Geez this better work! I feel great. My energy level is up and I can feel myself getting stronger. I also saw my endo today and she changed my insulin to better control my BS's keep your fingers crossed about that too. She said maybe someday I might get off the meds, but not to rush it. So I am takin it one small baby step at a time.

Starting to get the hang of it!
on April 30, 2008 12:55 pm

I think things are getting better every day. I managed to belch yesterday, that was amazing. LOL! I have needed to do that since coming home from the hospital but couldnt. Felt like I lost a couple of pounds. LOL! I am not in much discomfort anymore at all. I sleep all night now without bumping my side and causing pain. I think I am getting hang of eating, however I will be glad to be off of liquids soon. I think I can do this LOL!
